I've got a big Strata animation project that I'm rendering. I set the file up
to render at night, and then suspend it in the day when I need my
computer for other stuff. The problem is that I'm now running out of time
on this project, and I still have over half the file left to render! Of
course I could just re-render the whole thing at a lower resolution, but
I hate to waste the high-quality stuff that I've already put weeks of rendering
time into. If there's some way to, I'd like to stop the rendering where
it is, saving what's been completed as a QT movie. Is there some way to do this?

If you are using SSP1.75 Blitz what you can do is suspend the render,
make sure you make a copy of this, then when you restart the render let
one frame finish and stop it without suspending or saving. You should
have a quicktime movie then. Make sure you make that copy before you do
this!

Good luck,

Terry Schmidbauer

PS, Did I mention that you should make a copy?
