I looked at the files attached to your message. They raise more questions than answers. > I have successfully created 4000x2000 panoramas. But when I try to make > 8000x4000 or bigger full res panos, hugin just hangs after several hours. > Total number of images is 291. So here I go with a first bunch of questions: 1. how many hard disks does your system have? how much space is free on each one of them? 2. what version of Hugin are you using? and what version of Enblend-Enfuse? I see hugin-2010.1.0.4920 and hugin.win32.5161 in the paths to the executables, but path names can be arbitrary. 3. Did Hugin *hang*, i.e. become non-responsive and you had to kill it in the task manager? or did it *wait* with an error message window for you to copy&paste and then terminate the program normally? From the stitching window output the immediate reason for the stitching process to fail seems to be lack of disk space (emphasis mine): | enfuse: an exception occured | enfuse: enblend: error writing to image swap file. | *Most likely cause: No space for temporary files*. | Make sure that there is enough space in the temporary directory That said, the project shows unusual patterns and there likely are more errors. More information is required to understand: 4. How did you position the camera to shoot the images? Hand held? On a tripod? On a calibrated panoramic head? 5. Did you do exposure-bracketing? Consistently on every shoot? Or only when shooting high contrast areas such as windows? 6. In what mode was the camera? Manual? Automatic? Anything in between? It would help if you could post the following nine pictures, selected in different areas of the project that show anomalies to explain. Please post out of camera originals so that we can analyze the whole EXIF input.

From a quick look, at least a few things are not right. Could be at any of the following stages or combination thereof: shooting, cp detection, optimization, stitching. The errors might not show when stitched at 4000x2000 but they will show when stitched at full resolution. I don't want to sound pessimistic but it is highly unlikely that I would call a stitch with the project files you posted a "success" and at this point it is too early to say if it can be fixed. Yuv
