High Quality Rendering In Maya by kamcom: 3:14pm On Sep 23, 2011 |
High Quality Rendering mode is not supported by the graphics card. I'm getting this error every time I try to switch to High Quality view port. My Laptop is Graphic Memory is 1292 MB . with Windows 7 x64. Maya 2011, I have newest drivers installed on the laptop, does anyone have idea of what is wrong? |

Maya doesn't respect graphic card memory. Your GPU (graphics processing unit) is probably very low. You need a Quadro or FireGL graphics card. |

well, while memory is definitely important, ur video card needs to possess some other capabilities to run viewport 2.0 or high quality rendering. Does it support shader 1, 2 or 3? Is it fully compatible with Direct X11? ,, and d list goes on, Dats y different cards with d same memory rating cost differently or handle differently. U need to know d specifics of ur card in d 3d world. Post ur card type or browse its capabilities. Theres nothing wrong, Maya has already pointed out d problem, lol |

Thanks for the reply, My laptop is Dell Inspiron 1545 and when i checked the graphic card info it is: Name: Mobile Intel(R) 45 Express Chipset Family Manufacturer: Intel Corporation Chip Type: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family DAC Type: Internal Approx. Total Memory: 1292 MB Current Display Mode: 1366 x 768 (32 but) (60Hz) and its says it has Direct x 11 |

lol, dat particular system is just a glorified typewriter, no offense definitely not a 3d- machine. most integrated chips are not really suited for demanding graphics work. even with the latest drivers u will at most support pixel shader 1.0, and limited OpenGL capabilities. and u need at least 2.0 to run maya relatively effectively. u need a system with a dedicated video card, check autodesks certified video cards as a guide when upgrading to a better card. u cld possibly get an external compatible and improved card, and disable ur current onboard one (in ur system bios) u might need to use a monitor tho, after d upgrade, i wld suggest just getting a system better suited to 3d work generally. |

well, unless mobility is an important factor, i wld also suggest u buy a desktop as opposed to a laptop. They r cheaper, easier to upgrade, and have better support resources @least in this part of d world. They also have better heat sinks so handle stress better. U can google Systemax or Alienware pc's and lappys to get an idea of lappy specs. Check out autodesk for a list of certified videocards n select one dat is available in ur locality/affordable. I bought a SYX UG-2 from Systemax (syx-1080) it cost 2200 usd plus shipping. D lappy equivalent was almost 3000 usd. It uses nvidia geforce gtx 460 and ive neva seen a game it cant play or settings that it cant take. |
