[Radiance-general] Oconv: system - out of object space: Not enough space error

[Guglielmetti, Robert]

8GB?! Uhm, yeah. =) Mesh is efficient, but an 8GB one will definitely give you headaches. If you can break that thing down to a smaller module and array it using xform you will be happier...

Hi Radiance community,

I'm trying to generate a BSDF file from a very dense mesh.

The Radiance file is around 8 GB and when I try to generate the .xml file using gebBSDF it gives me the "out of object space error"

Oconv: system - out of object space: Not enough space error
Could not compile scene


I found an old discussion about the same warning which suggests some changes to source code (http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/digests_html/v1n1.html). I wonder if there is an easier way to address this issue?

A smarter solution is probably to create a smaller part of the panel and copy it around (which is what I'm going to do next) but I wanted to make sure that I need to do so.

Thanks,
Mostapha
