artlantis rendering resolution

[Anonymous]

I am new to art.lantis and am having some trouble getting a high resolution rendering. I understand that it always renders at 72 dpi and that you just make the total pixel number greater and then shrink it down until you get the dpi you need.

However, when i set the pixels to anything over 800 vertical and horizontal the file doesn't seem to write. I can see it rendering, but when it is done the file it created is way to small (3 kb or so) and cannot be opened.

Does anyone know what i am missing?

It sounds like you are a little confused about resolutions, but it definitely should be working over sizes of 800x800. I regularly render 3000x3000 images and higher withough problems.
Are you using Artlantis 2, and do you have the latest hotfix?

thanks for the link, but that's the part i figured out already. it's when i try to bump up the pixels to 3,000 x 3,000 the file doesn't write.

I'm working at my school and i believe they have the student version of art.lantis (not sure exactly how that relates to the official version). I'd assume they have downloaded it and done nothing else in terms of set up, so any add ons have not been installed.

what is the latest hot fix and what does it do?

Well, student version might have a resolution limit.

I have rendered 15000x10000 (yes, site billboard) and it went well ...

What matters is the pixel count. Size in inches times required dpi equals pixels. That's all there is to it.

Student version might have the size limit. Anyone from Abvent knows?

Hello Gordo,

Can you please explain more about this problem?
You make a rendering over 800x800 pxl and the file is not saved?
Is that so? What is the file format choosen?

Hello Djordje,

The Student version is not limited.

Have a nice day.

yes.

today i was able to go over 800 x 800 but not consistently. the other times i got only an unknown file type icon with a long series of numbers and letters for the file name different from what i put in for the rendering to be saved as.


i have been saving the renderings as jpegs.
