Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
5 is the highest I can go. It won't go above that. The normal map is 2048. Memory allocation is thus: Wed Aug 02 00:21:20 2006 startingimport Wed Aug 02 00:21:20 2006 Trying to allocate 35.193 Mb in virtual memory for highpoly vertices/normals/UVs...

Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Ok I did more fiddling. For reference my video card is an EVGA 8800GT 512MB. The reason it wasn't working was probably that the source file was much too big for the card to handle, it would error out on Generating Nodes. The biggest file I could manage was 51k polys, with 420MB(setting 450 would crash xnormal) set in the…
