What does it mean in Photoshop CS5 when it says your 3D Scene exceeds the limit?

Okay. So I am trying to create 3D Text in Photoshop but it says my 3D Scene Exceeds the limit of lights and/ or textures for the video card's hardware accelerated 3D rendering. As long as the limits are exceeded, 3D rendering will be done in software only, and some features (e.g. Repousse) will be disabled.



What do I need to do?|||It means that with your current computer and video card, it can't show you all the different lighting and texture effects simeltaneously. It then goes on to say that it is actually performing those operations (except for special ones like the ones mentioned) even if you can't see them right. This may be a problem later beacuse when you flatten the image (make it into a png, gif, or jpeg) the 3D text might not look like you expected. If you have the option to turn off some lighting effects or texture it might help, but then you might not get what you want. I often run into problems like these when trying to work with large pictures or complex operations
