pls Help, "Running out of Memory"

[Zeriel00]

Hello, recently I've had a problem with 3D Coat becoming unusable in my machine. I keep getting a "Running out of Memory" and a crash to desktop, even tough I have 8GBs of Video Ram (r9 390) and 16GB of system ram. I'm using non cuda, anyone else have this problem? :(

Are you using the download from the website or the one on steam? If you're using the steam one, trying using the website one.

I'm using the website one, I'm starting to think is my AMD drivers or something :(

I have the solution to the 3d coat virtual memory problem

If you start 3d coat via the steam installer, then it starts the 32 Bit version. This can not address the whole memory range you have.

To solve this, you need to open the installation folder of 3d coat.
In my case it is here:

P:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\3d-coat\

There you can find this .exe file:

3D-CoatDX64C.exe

This is the 64Bit CUDA (if you have an Nvidia card) Version of 3d coat and all your problems will be gone. There is also a 64Bit exe for non CUDA cards (like ATI).

Just create a shortcut to the file on your desktop and you're ready.

Thanks for the help, I actually did a reinstall and updated and it worked fine from then on. I'm really annoyed with Nvidia always having the proprietary tech to screw over AMD but if this BS continues I may have to go Nvidia because even Maya is acting up on AMD (My Marquee tool refuses to work) :(
