insufficient free RAM

Hi,

After coming from Modo 701+Octane 3 (early version), I've upgraded to Modo 12 +Octane 4.
I opened my latest scene and when I click "Open Viewport" I get an error:
Insufficient free RAM Preference -> Octane -> Maximum Vertices is too high for the amount of free RAM

Maxium vertices in preference: 30000000

In Modo 701: 4855MB used / 866MB free / 8192MB total (1070 Ti)

What is wrong?

Cheers

p.s. in the standalone it works fine

Go to preferences, double this number.

Thanks for the reply, but that didn't help.
In Modo 701 it has the same values

Hi - reduce the Maximum Vertices in the Preference as per the error message. You only have 8GB RAM on your motherboard, which will not be enough for 30 million vertices.

Thanks

Paul

I reduced it to 20000000 and now it’s working!
Thanks for the reply Paul.
