Vray for Cinema Memory Limitation

[visuality]

I have the fixed version ( most recent ) for cinema 4D. It seem I have hit some
kind of memory? limitation. My own thought is to render my interior as parts. Any one have experience with this. Perhaps there is some setting that
will reduce the number of triangles being
calculated ect. I realize what ever I don't see in front of the camera really doesn't have to rendered. I guess my scene is too complex with n734 ( 734 nodes? ) Any help is appreciated.

Just wanted to say I have 2 gigs of ram and use a 32 bit machine.

Well what I did for temporary solution ( and common sense ) as I built the
scene I carefully constructed it into sections so to get over the memory
limitations I am saving out individual rooms. That is re-saving the rooms
of the scene as there own scene files. Same result, no compromise just a
little more work. :)

Derr, more common sense it seems. If you turn off the render option to right of objects in the editor Vray for Cinema does not calculate the geometry for the object as well. Wow, I cant believe I overlooked this simple thing, lol. Anyway using both method greatly optimized my scene. Hope this helps others, the great news is I dint have to mess with my Vray setting to loose quality. I think its time to go 64 bit.

Same problem here with Windows XP 2GB. 3DS Max 2009 & Vray. When rendering a medium size model at large resolution, program crash.

I solved this enabling 3GB option in boot.ini file. Boot option as follows:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /3GB

No problem now.

Hope it helps.

Thanks I took apart my my scene and rendered it in pieces then recomposited. I may this but I will be getting a the new laptop the acer aspire gemstone blue, I am sure it is a 64bit quad core. It will make a nice portable solution and kick the memory limitation in the but I am ok with the size and weight. For the desktop I will build a gaming rig still looking for a board that supports SLI AND 4 processors
Quad core intel or quad core AMD. Best I have found so far is a dual process boards that supports SLI , not quad processor board. thanks for the info :)
