bedheadben Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hello, recently I discovered that while working with A:M for a while, and rendering things using a few of the different pre-set options, all of a sudden the pre-set rendering options started to dissappear! (see the picture below) Can anyone tell me if there is an easy solution to this? If it helps, I am using A:M 2006, and using a MacBook.

jpappas Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hi, I'm not sure why the other options are not showing, but try clicking the Advanced checkbox, which I leave on all the time. Advanced simply shows you all the options as a list without the icons. -Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedheadben Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 Ya, I tried that, and that's good, but I sometimes don't want to spent 10-15 minutes setting up the options in there just to end up getting a super pixelated render. I also can't figure out how to NOT render things in passes without it looking like there was only one pass. And yes, i have the quality set to Final.

Bruce Del Porte Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 What type of file are you rendering to and what compression are you using? Maybe if you could post a photo. Pixelation can be caused by too much compression. What does a final rendered TGA look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedheadben Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 I final rendered TGA is a little small in size, and it also distorts my picture, and if I make it a aspect ratio of 1 it puts a white bar at the top, so here is a final rendered TGA (which looks low quality to me): But this is getting beside the point, and the point is, I want my presets back, so how will I get them?

Bruce Del Porte Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 What were your presets? Turn on the advanced option, reset them to what you want and they will stay until you change them again. I see some jpeg compression artifacting and maybe some noise from a resolution change. Can you post the original TGA as a file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
