    If you are using a 32 bit Windows 7 Daz Studio will unfortunately run out of memory when rendering scenes containing two or more Genesis figures. Is your computer an old Pentium 3 or 4 computer? If it is, Daz Studio may not be able to use all 4 GB of Memory. I might be wrong though. Sorry I couldn't help more but your hardware is limiting how much memory Daz Studio can use. You could buy a 64 bit Intel Dual Core computer or a new Celeron.

    edit: Daz Studio can only use about 1 to 1.2 GB of memory on a 32 bit processor/operating system even though you have 4 GB installed. the 1.2 GB limitation is made by Microsoft and the hardware, it is not your fault.

    In the time waiting you could tweak your system so that DAZ could use more memory.

    1°/ Use the 3GB Switch in order to be able to use 3GB memory for programs. see http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How-to-enable-a-3GB-switch-on-Windows-Vista-Windows-7-or-Windows-XP-s.html
    2°/ Disable all the Windows EyeCandy see http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-adjust-visual-settings-windows-7-best-performance.htm
    I'd advise simply checking "adjust for best performance". That should free 200-300 MB Memory
    3°/ Open task manager and see in the process tab if you have some unused programs that are launched at startup and consume memory
    4°/ In your Render Settings, check that the Bucket Size is at 8
    5°/ You could also render with 3delight Standalone by exporting a RIB File from DS. See this thread http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/17016/

    I forgot about the /3GB switch. Thanks. Daz Studio can render slightly larger scenes without giving memory errors.
