Hello,
I am sure you will do great simulations very soon.
VWD lacks tutorials. I wanted to improve a bit my english before to make some tutorials. My English is far to be perfect but I think I am now able to do useful tutorials.
About the memory issue, the problem comes really from the memory because I use a 32 bits library. I want to improve this part of the program because this library also forbids me to compile the program for Mac computers.
In fact, this memory issue is no so important because when the program crashes with this error, more than 30 millions springs have been created and the simulation becomes to be very slow. I began to work on GPU computing, using OpenCL, that will accelerate the simulation speed with an impressive way. When the GPU version will be fully fonctionnal, perhaps it will possible to work with 100 millions springs. Or more :-)
Feel free to open another thread in the forum if you have any question which can be interesting to other VWD users.
Have a great day.
Gérald
