Setting Up to Render Large Images

...

1.  In the Common tab of the Render Settings dialog, set the Image Format to vrimg: You may also select Multi-Channel OpenEXR file for the output format. Note that if you choose an OpenEXR file, it will be a tiled file and not scanline-based, because Memory frame buffer is off. However, OpenEXR files do support multi-channel output when the Memory frame buffer is turned off.

 


2.  In the Render View rollout shown below, set the Memory Frame Buffer to None. You can also set the Memory frame buffer attribute to Preview so that V-Ray generates a small resolution preview of the final result.


 


3.  In the Resolution rollout, set the desired resolution of the image (such as 12000 x 12000 shown below).


 


4.  In the VRay tab, under the Image sampler rollout, switch the image sampler Type to Bucket.


 


5.  Render the image.

6.  If you rendered to a .vrimg file, you can use the vrimg2exrtool to convert the file to a scanline-based OpenEXR file.
