• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FSXA Huge problem during export - system.OutOfMemoryException

Hello friends,

I had this error a couple of times before when trying to export my model:

Until now I was always able to export after quitting some processes but that doesn't do the trick anymore. The model has 150,000 faces at present and I thought it might be that my computer is to weak to handle this data, so I installed FSX, SDK and all the service packs on a second (4GB RAM) machine - with the same result.
I loaded an older version of the model and tried to export it - the same stupid exception was thrown.

I followed Robert Kerrs advice, changed the display mode to wireframe (even bounding boxes), I hid all parts - no change.

What else can I do?

Regards,
Vitus
 
Hey Vitus,


Easy.

When you have been working the model visibly and moving things around, save, then reboot Gmax. restart, with model in wire frames, and export then.


When my models get huge, I have this issue. My jet I am making just got to this level. Sometimes it will run fine, sometimes I have to reboot Gmax. When I reboot, its saved in wireframes view, no paint or solids showing, side view. I select all parts to be exported, export, same for the VC, save, close Gmax, and test in FSX.


There must be a huge amount of resources in play to cause this, but its the way it is.
