Rendering doesn't works
Hi guys, i'm in trouble with rendering.
When I try to get a photo, sh3d crashes or appear the famous red cross in dialogue window.
I tried to make the ini file named SweetHome3D.l4j.ini with the instruction -Xmx etc etc.
Tried with all the ram i dispose, tried with 4gb,8gb,16gb, 32gb and 64gb.
I'm using an 8gb graphic card and 64gb ram.
The file ini doesn't works, my project is hard i know, but with my old computer, rendering works, and it is very lower than new PC...
If I try to get a photo of a lighter project, works, when I get many details as I like, doesn't works...
I repeat, my old potato pc, makes photos of every project, with 4 or 5 hours per photo but it does, new beast PC, nether tries lol.
Sorry for my English, can someone help me to fix this boring problem?

Re: Rendering doesn't works
Are we talking about the same model on 2 different computers?

If the model has changed, maybe you introduced a faulty model that blocks rendering.
Solution:
1 - delete half the models, try to render.
2 - if it works. undo deletion and delete the other half of the models
3 - if it works, the problem doesn't lie in the models, but in the size of the file, or there is a compatibilty problem with your computer/software?
4 - if it doesn't work - again delete half of the models, and repeat until you find the faulty model
