not enough memory issue

[John Meilak]

Hey Chuks, are you running Windows 32 bit? That will only recognise up to 4 GB RAM, rest is wasted. Hence your 30%. To use a lot more you need Win 64 bit on a compatible machine. Be aware also that c4d went 64 bit ONLY from R15 I believe, no 32 bit, so if that is the problem, best check your laptop first. Just a thought as not mentioned in your specs.

Yes I think I was running the 32bit version all this while, I have changed over to the 64 bit, well it still dint render my work but when I try breaking it down into smaller projects to superimpose them in after effect, it was rendering in bits, it’s a painstaking process but it’s worth giving a try. I just hope I can be able to merge them in after effects to get the desired results. Still trying to get a newer version of c4d (r15,16 or 17) I hope that helps as well thank you all once again.

About the same problem here. Not enough memory error. but only on the network render. just rendering at the workstation is fine. both master and slave have 32GB ram and running on W10 pro.

Hi everyone, I just wanna tell you the latest so far on my project. I switched over to d 64bit as advised and try rendering it per hundred frames as png files, it’s rendering now, although it’s slow well that’s bcos the file is big and it has 3400 frames. Thanks everyone for you contribution, I won’t have been able to figure it out if not for ur inputs.
