Re: rendering best-quality photos.
Does the .ini file just contain that -Xmx1024m (or other amount), nothing else? After being infuriated by windows' safeguards that won't let me save in the program files directory, I saved the file (text file) in another directory and copied it into program files/SweetHome3D which is the location of the .exe. Then I restarted SH3D but it's still amazingly slow, and looking in task manager it shows javaw using only about 650MB, and my picture won't render even with 2nd-best quality :( System is windows ultimate.

I'll try restarting windows. I believe Java to be up to date, certainly, the Java updater prompts me to install new ones fairly regularly. The comment about 64-bit java: can that be installed on a 32 bit windows? Maybe I should try using 63 bit windows again, in the past I've had too many problems with hardware drivers and older software for that to be an option.
