HIGHEST RESOLUTION IN LIGHTWORKS

Anonymous
Not applicable
I am currently working on some aerials in ArchiCAD 9 with the station point at around 200 feet high. Can anyone here please tell me what to set the resolution at in Lightworks to get the highest, clearest resolution? Mainly I'm asking because all my clients have the "Jones" for huge graphic reproductions....especially for aerial renderings.

I usually use ArtLantis, which gets crystal clear shots for me, but LightWorks renders bricks SO much better (it renders brick walls much less "patterny" than ArtLantis....another subject for a future question).

I know the new LightWorks book will undoubtedly be recommended (and yes I do plan to order a copy soon), but I need help with this problem today (and couldn't get the book here in time even if ordered right now).

As always, any and all suggestions will be muchly appreciated!:0)

thanks...

OUCH!

That is some six years old?

Upgrade to R, man ... take a look at www.artlantis.com, especially http://www.artlantis.com/community/galerie/index.php

Consider me thoroughly chastised;0).....I will be getting R shortly.
BTW: isn't there also another version of ArtLantis coming soon? I have heard that it may be even better than R.....(asking, not stating)?

According to their website, Artlantis Studio is due to come out in 2006. My understanding is this will give the ability for animations.

Great news!
Now all I need is a Mac Quad-processer G-5' and for ArchiCAD 10 to
be "Quad-friendly.....(might as well dream big on that last wish, no?).
