error (0.6 release)

[motorsep]

I started rendering of my small scene with alot of polygons (and big .xml file ~ 130Mb). Here is what I got:



What is the deal? (I have P4 1.4GHz 512 Mb RAM)

I think that the problem is that you have a 90k+ polys object there
try to split it up in smaller objects (this should reduce loading time too)

[eman7613]

my expirance is, anything above 84k pollys will crash and die

[atmmatt]

I have an imported stl into blender that ends up being 90 meg, crashes no matter what I do... Only 6 parts but many many many tri's...

[motorsep]

So what is the way to fix that?

[eman7613]

break the object into two. not sure how to do it in blender. IN cinema you select some polygons, click disconnect, go back the original object, and delete the still selected pollys.

[motorsep]

Doesn't work :/ I have my object splitted on bunch of smaller objects. Sucks.

[motorsep]

Where is the main guy?! That's not cool
I was planning on using Indigo for my industrial design projects, but it seems like it's capable of rendering monkeys from Blender only
Or maybe it because Blender's exporter is crooked

What is wrong here?
Did I understand something wrong here?
Please tell me!
Should I try with some more triangles?

Do you use Blender and export from it using Indigo exporter?

[Phil]

Yes,

I use blender, and the steps are the following:
Pro/Engineer -> export in obj -> import in Blender
Some transformations in blender and -> export in indigo

Regards, Phil

[motorsep]

Hmm.. Strange, very strange.. I use Moi3D -> obj -> Blender -> some tune ups -> Indigo. What version of exporter do you use?

[Phil]

Hi,

I used 0.6 test 6 for the exporter in blender and 0.6 test 6 Indigo.

Regards, Phil
