instead of doing that, render 6 cameras with 90deg fov. much quicker as well, since softimages useless rendermap is single threaded for finalgather.
also, if you have to do a lot of rendermapping with FG / Reflections...another way to speed it up is do the old pre-cache FG trick, then set you FG to readonly. but anyway, not sure rendermap supports clusters...it may, but ive never tried. also make sure you have ignore reflections turned off (on by default) apart from that, nothing else I can think of. Cheers, James, PS, softimage devs, I know its only a particle plugin, but can we please fix the rendermap? ta.
