ok, its rendering..might take a couple of hours.


When you bump up the resolution you have to bump up the per-pixel sampling values otherwise you get some nasty jaggies (especially on radiosity/motion blurred/DOF scenes..just the way my renderer works)

**UPDATE**

woohooo

done..added a little thingie (probably ruined it)..sorry, pissed off.  just found my brothers been having trouble with a bunch of townies (again).  I wonder if that trash have anything better to do with their time other than wandering around in the freezing cold trying to start fights with total strangers.  

this is a big image...be prepared to wait.

The point isn't reducing load time, it's making it so it doesn't screw up the frames   I'm doing it for the benefit of all those people here who have lower screen resolutions, for whom the large pictures will widen the frames and screw up the text.  

And, wEvil... dude... that is one heck of a good render there   Nice one and a half!

I always use MAX to generate the imagery then use Digital Fusion or Potatoshop to composite them together, a simple screen/alpha blend job.

Anyway...can i enter this for the render compo or do i have to do something completely different?

Not sure over here. I'd love to believe you can, but we'll need Shrike's word on it.

You can probably do it in Photoshop if your good, but I wouldn't swear by it...

It's easy. Two motion blurs and two gradated alpha channels. Well, that's how I do it - should be the same in PotatoShop

I was talking about the post production blue "HUD" lines, not the motion blur

Those? Those are even easier   PS should have some vector graphic tools in it, use those with a screen layer
