LSRAD problem

del82 · January 10th, 2007

I did the folowing.

I copied the ls. file called "danas" to lightscape bin folder.
Then I went start, run and typed
LSRAD -v danas.ls

...and I got a warning saying windows cannnot find LSRAD
I ckecked if the LSRAD is in the LS bin file, and it is.
Any ideas?

Well how's the project going I know you solved your LSRAD issue

FYI for everybody else his problem was due to the 'wrong path' situation in the command prompt.

"...they ask no quarter"

Its BAD!

Ive ended processing the whole thing wich I divided in 5 parts. All together have 1 GB.
Now, when I try to merge them all together, Ls freezes and announces an error saying "...the memory could not be read..."
Is this due the lack of memory on my computer, wich has 1.5 GB RAM?

What I noticed is, when I open an ls. file that eg. 300 MB big on the hard drive, and hit statistics in LS it says around 600 MB memory used, wich is twice the size, also the task manager shows around 600 MB usage.

Now if all files are 1 GB big on the drive, to open them in LS I would need at least 2 GB of memory (wich is a problem right now) right?

Yes it looks like you have a RAM problem

I am not sure if there's away to merge files using the comand line. I have to go look this up.

I am assuming that you are merging .ls not .lp files right?

Yes, Im merging ls. files.
Ill put today an extra 512 MB memory and see if this will be the getaway.
Also I reduced the quality of the ls. files so I ended up with 900 MB instead of 1 GB.
Ill see what happend today.
Hopefully, I think this would do it

You can use the lsmerge utility to merge .ls files. Hope this helps

Again nothing, even with 2 GB RAM. Ls terminates at the same memory usage around 1,5 GB?!?!?!?!
I then thought its maybe an material or a layer problem like they are maybe overlaping or something...but nope...as soon as I cut down the quality significantly I can megre them all, with no problem so I relay dont get it if this is a memory problem or something else....?!!?
If you have any suggesstion, please...
