This is the latest version of the virtual reconstruction of the Roman Forum in Emporiae (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empuries) that I have working in for several months.

Everything has been modeled with Bryce, except the statues, which are Michael 2 and the P4 woman with Poserword clothing; they have been imported using DAZ Studio.

The scene consists of more than 35200 objects and 2778000 polygons. But I am having a memory problem here: when I try to save the whole file I get an out of memory error. Bryce is using around 1.4 GByte, but when I save the file, the memory usage grows until reaching 1.6 GByte, and then I get the error message. I have read than some people build Bryce scenes with hundreds of polygons, so I do not know where the problem is. In order to finish the forum must build and add the two buildings that completed the forum, so I would like to know if there is a workaround to solve this memory problem.

I will post a couple more of renders from different perspectives.

Best regards

Ramon

I know I'm crazy, but why does everyone use thousands, nay hundreds of thousands of separate objects? A lot of people do this. How do you keep track of that many things?

Bobbystahr, thank you for the links; I  have assigned more virtual memory to WIndows, and in fact my disk is badly fragmneted... I will try to save the file after defragmenting it.
Pakled, I am building the scene in small sections (the temple, the temple basement, etc) and then I I assemble them in the larger scene... the numbers that I posted are the ones that Bryce gives when I use the "deselect all" option... I would not be able to track the objects individualliy ;-)

Best regards

 Just curious...are you in the habit of logically naming all objects and their parts. I've found that in any app if I name as I create it's way easier keeping track, tho Bryce could really use the type of object browser/explorer setup both Vue and Imagine and well TG2 as well have that is set up like an explorer window with trees,... the pop up select method Bruce uses is way inefficient.. ...

I have found that my limit seems to around 50million polygons and/or 250mb file size, after that the file seems to get corrupted and wont save/load anymore(which has really p***** me off in the past!!).
And yes i HATE the object selection system Bryce uses, it would be much more efficient with a seperate window system.
