rendering problem

[Rosetter]

Hi,

I made it through all the tutorials I could and seemed to have a grasp on rendering but I guess not. I am working on a design and would like to provide a simple 3-D presentation and am having troubled applying textures to structure walls and landscape walls. It shows the texture is associated with my walls but when I render it the walls disappear all together. If I hover over them the outline appears. I have tried changing the attributes with no luck. Any suggestions?

Make sure they have a solid fill in the attributes palette.

Thanks for the reply Ray, but that does not seem to be the problem. Another issue I am having which may be related is everytime I render in any mode, I get an error saying insufficient memory. I have a make with 4GB memory and the file is roughly 50mb so I wonder if it is a glitch with the program? Definately could be operator error as well! Please let me know what you think.

Thanks again

Some objects can only be rendered through their class settings, I've found. Create a class for your wall, like 'Brick wall class' and give it a render in the edit class box. Choose use at creation. Then make sure the render tab in the OIP is set to class render.

Good luck!
