3D USERS
I AM USING 3DS3 ON A COMPAQ 5/60M WITH 24 MEGS. OF RAM.
WHEN I RENDER MODELS, EVEN MUCH SMALLER THAN THAT, THE SYSTEM STILL
SWAPPS TO DISK. COULD ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME ON MY CFIG386 SETTINGS.
THANKS.
Antonio,

see pg. 114 to 117 of your installation manual for a description of
virtual memory management and how your choices affect memory
utilization.

Antonio,
Does this happen when you first start 3DS, or only once you have been working
for a while? 3DS "holds onto" memory once it has been used. Periodically, you
have to exit 3DS and then start again to free up any memory that me be
reserved.
Exit 3ds, start again, and load the mesh that was swapping to disk even though
it is very small. Does it still do it after you start up 3DS again?
Shouldn't.
