DR file size issue - possible solution

I don’t know if this is a good workaround or not.

I just managed to get a 40MB file out to the DR slaves by taking the most complex NURBS stuff and putting them on layers - and then meshing each one by trial and error.

It might be something to do with trying to convert the NURBS and sending the mesh - a straight mesh might work fine.

I have some NURBS going too.

Good luck. Glenn

Re: DR file size issue - possible solution

Converting nurbs to mesh will decrease the ram usage, if you have ram shortage that will help you, but originally that has nothing with DR. I remember working with 90 MB interior nurbs models in DR.

i meant turning to bmps - and maybe its Bongo - sorry v. tired …

Re: DR file size issue - possible solution

well it seems to crap out approx. 500K polygons..
the joy of Bongo and aircraft interiors…

turned the jpgs to bmps it helps - but not much… maybe ut is RAM - pure and simple…
