Help needed, please. I'm using Apophysis 2.09 with no mods to the installation except for adding some plugins; Win XP, E7400 Core 2 Duo CPU, 3.2 GB ram (32-bit OS), Radeon HD5570 graphics card. When I enlarge a fractal substantially (see example below), it loads OK on screen, but on rendering, the system hangs between completing the render (typically 2-4 h) and saving it as a png. 'Normal' renders save in ca 10 s, but I've left the system for up to 12 hours without it saving for these 'Zoomed' renders. I use png because I like the transparency. Can anybody tell me what's going on, and how to save these renders? Not sure that I'm using the term 'zoom' correctly here. With thanks, MartinS
Edit: I'm generating A3-sized renders (4961x3508 px).
