Above is a link to a .max model I made....

 

the poblem is, why that file slows down the operating speed of the 3ds max?

 

It is pretty unusual, because that file is just less than 1 meba byte, which is usually pretty fast for my computer to run

 

The most obssessive part is that it takes like hours to do a quick rendering before I feel really anoyed and shut down the computer....

 

Can any one plz see my file and point out where is the problem??

 

thx a million for ANY help!

 

ps. my computer is a p4 1.7 GHZ with 630 MB of RAM

I don't have Max installed at the moment, but if your renders are taking more than a day I'd suggest rendering them on Linux, which won't choke on its own memory mismanagement.

ah...

 

I think it is more of a problem of my file (the way I made the model) than the hardware and OS actually, because I have used max for a while for modelling and never see this kind of disaster...

 

Besides, I dont think Max has a linux version.....

 

Any way, thx Sayonara for ur respond

 

 

Any more people can help?? thx

You should probably reduce the polygons and vertexes.

 

What's your VGA ?

How many Polygons and Vertexes are there in your model ?

Wich renderer did you use :

- Direct 3D

- OpenGL

- Software Renderer

nah.. too late...

 

This was an urgent problem, and since I did not get the solution quick enough, I went to other place for help.

 

Thx any way ;-)
