Title: working with large textures

Sorry - i meant a 1000 frame sequence of 6k frames. So in fairness only one 6k texture per frame.... I'll let you know if i have any luck....

He he - if you actually succeed with this - firstly ONE or TWO 6K textures is a little ambitious, let alone a thousand - please please let us know, and how!!!

Subject: working with large textures

I've started to apply some hires textures (6k square .pic files) to my master scene but i get a noicon pic instead, both in the clip property itself and the render. Loading the clip into a clean scene is fine. Somebody out there knows what i mean.

 Is there a max texture size in xsi and is it filesize or pixel count? Is it entirely down to the amount of ram available?

Will converting to .map files make any difference as i've a thousand 6k files and it might take a while.

Cheers...

Andi.
