Maximum pixel size?

[archicg]

does anyone knows if there is a pixel size limit Vray can render to?

Because I need a very large format image for a 18x12m billboard.

 

Thanks

Have youd found out what resolution and pixel size you need to render to? Typicaly large billboards are printed at a very low resolution.

My client is asking for 60dpi. say about 18000x12000pixel.

I just tried rendering an image that size with Vray and it seemed to work. I did nto let it fininish, but I saw no errors.

i've read somewhere, can't remember where, that vray can render up to 100,000x100,000 pixels. don't know whether it's true or not, but yet, in terms of memory, it wouldn't be that easy for max to handle such a huge file. what you can do, that is what i'd problably do if i were you, is render your image in small parts and then put them together in ps.

You may also wanna try backburner and render in strips. that way, backburner will assemble the image strips for you after it renders.

Thanks guys for all the sugest and inputs.

I finally rendered my hires image in several segment and then stitch them in photoshop.

I believe the Tiff file format has a maximum dimension of 40k pixels.
