[comp.sys.amiga] Imagine Rendering Problems

Hello there.
I'm having a problem with Impulse's Imaging Software.  Using either the
floating point or the standard version of the software, I find that 
any attempt to render a scene in any mode below full raytrace mode
croaks my system.  If I want a preview solid modelling scene, the 
renderer initializes.  The title bar then says 0% rendered and hangs
completely.  I am running a Commodore 2630 accellerator with a 50MHz
asynchronus math coprocessor.  This is fast enough that I don't mind
terribly having to fully trace test frames, but perhaps there is a simple
fix that I'm overlooking?
That aside, I love it!  The object editor is the best I've used (although
it still could use some features, like mathematical object definition).
My main gripe would have to be the documentation.  Cryptic at best.
Still, in all, a lovely product.  Can somebody help me do sub-raytrace
renderings?  Gracias.
