Oconv: system - out of object space: Not enough space error

Are you using a Radince triangle mesh? If not, try obj2mesh to convert it. (Gensurf has a -o option to couple with it.)

Hi Radiance community,

I'm trying to generate a BSDF file from a very dense mesh.

The Radiance file is around 8 GB and when I try to generate the .xml file using gebBSDF it gives me the "out of object space error"

Oconv: system - out of object space: Not enough space error
Could not compile scene

I found an old discussion about the same warning which suggests some changes to source code (http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/digests_html/v1n1.html). I wonder if there is an easier way to address this issue?

A smarter solution is probably to create a smaller part of the panel and copy it around (which is what I'm going to do next) but I wanted to make sure that I need to do so.

Thanks,
Mostapha

Radiance triangle meshes cut down memory requirements by a factor of three or so. If you can get your mesh into Wavefront OBJ formant, obj2mesh can take it from there.

Thanks Rob and Greg,

I use a triangulated mesh which is not generated by Radiance. Is this something special about Radiance's triangle mesh?

I will try to break down the geometry. I was trying to avoid the edge effect by modeling it all at once.

Mostapha,

You may have to simplify your mesh or output it at lower resolution and/or tile it as Rob Guglielmetti suggested.

You can also try increasing some #define's in common/object.h, such as MAXOBJBLK then rebuilding everything using makeall.

Just to let you guys know, I faced a similar issue a few days ago, in a very small project. Not sure how I solved it, though. I work on OSX Yosemite.

It.is all I can say right now... hope it helps!

obj2mesh also gives me a similar error:

system - out of memory in newvn: Not enough space

Great! I have it as an .obj file. I will give it a try then.
