Hello. This is my record attempt, and until the rest of the guys present proof, I think is the record:

and my proof:


Tha data is in the main image, I don´t have the MXI file size, but I´ll post it in a few hours. I hope this counts, hehehhe. BTW, the two metal statues look black in some sopots because I mapped the mxi in a quarter of emisphere and the sky was black, Next time I´ll use a full sphere. CC welcome.

How many memory has your system?

Hi, I just upgraded to 4 gigs registered ecc ddram.

Hi! I'm working on a scene that has 3 buildings and some 3d trees surrounding it (which increase the number of polys dramatically). When I try to render I have to hide many of them in order not to run out of memory. I've managed to render up to 2.7M triangles (maxwell counted) but not much more. When max is creating geometry it says that the application has run out of memory and closes. Do you know what kind of memory is it talking about? RAM, virtual,... (RAM I guess) cause I have 4GB ddr2 too and cannot manage to render as much polys as you Falconking.
Maybe I have not configured properly my windows and it's not taking advantage of all the RAM I have installed.
Do you have any advice for me?

Thanks

Shocked Fer.

Hello. Check your virtual memory settings and increase it if possible. I have more than 6 gigs of total virtual memory asigned. Also use all your disks to get virtual memory. I hope this help.

[Fernando Tella]

Well, in fact windows says I have only 3GB and max says I'm using most of it (~2.9), which is probably the problem.
Do you know how to fix this windows issue?

P.S: Sorry, maybe this is not the best place to post my questions.

[Fernando Tella]

I increased virtual memory; it was set to 4GB. Set it to 8gb but it crashed like always.

[falconking]

You have 4 gigs instaled and windows reports only 3 ? sounds like a ram problem there. thats the reason of your crashes. check the dimms specs.

[Fernando Tella]

That's a known windows XP pro problem. BIOS detect 4GB. Which windows are you using? Maybe I have to move to windows server.

[falconking]

windows xp 64 bits proffesional.

[Fernando Tella]

Are you having problems with programs related to 64bits architecture? How is it doing for you?

[falconking]

programs work fine. hardware drivers give more problems, there are few for win xp 64.
