Thanks for your help Adam, I’ll add the to my christmas list 🙂

Great advice Brian and Randy, thanks also for jpeg and C4d file, very useful to see the end results.

I’ve had a go myself on the mini tutorial you post and works a treat.

Crazy that there isn’t an easier way.

Thanks again

Thanks for the reply Randy.

Wouldn’t that just create me the same a primitive pyramid I’ve already tried?

The problem is primitive pyramids subdivide into triangles and don’t smooth very well in a hypernurbs.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Many thanks for your reply.

I decided to have a bash at the boot.ini file. The code you supplied booted ok but didn’t seem to open up the ram to 3gb. I did a bit of digging and found this code:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”Microsoft Windows XP Professional” /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”Microsoft Windows XP Professional 3GB” /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /3GB

This seemed to work for me, AE and C4D now working into 3gb and no more “out of memory” problems.

Many thanks for you help, sent me in the correct direction.
Cheers.
