I run Max and Photoshop together as well. If your not using files the insane size that DaBrain has it doesn't get too lagy for me.
I've only got 768mb of ram too...

normally with this sort of thing, the guy who has the most RAM wins.

thank you.

Just found a way around the slowness:

I'll just reduce the size of the map, save my working steps and apply it to the full scale texture. ;)

Hmm, the problem is: I can't save some things I do. :(

?

Which things?

Should just be able to resize the image as a whole, and then save as a non-layered format...

I need 4 GB ram :devil: .


the more ram you have, the more PS will use, it's a fact

in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,

Coordinate-dependent stuff. There are a few things you just can't save for sure. When I draw somthing with a pencil, I can use that saved protocol.

Yeah, got a fast S-ATA disk for this. My old Raid-0 was faster, but... well it's dead now. :(

No Raid-0 for me again. ;)

With 4GB ram, you could just put the page file on a ram disk.
PS would run a lot fast with this.

BTW does CS 2.0 support 64-Bit CPUs already?

What kind of memory does your PC take, Nico? IE: what speed memory and how much per slot?

Download Sisoftware Sandra, PC Wizard or some other similiar prog and that will tell you which type of memory you have ;)

On topic: I can't really think of any other good image editing software than PS. Seriously, I've been totaly brainwashed by Adobe :p

Maybe PS-Elements could be less memhog but it does lack some things (being a cheaper version). On the other hand, my experience with PS-E says that one should try it if it has all the elements one uses. It is quite usefull and powerfull considering the prize. If it lacks some tools, perhaps some free small software can help (XN-View etc.)
Habeeb it...

I'm not sure I understand.
I can't really think of any situations where resizing the image would mess stuff up that badly... :blah:
