I am getting an out of memory error when rendering in the R8 EB version. It occurs after awhile and when you click 'ok' when the error pops up, it continues to render a few more frames, till the error occurs again. The scene is not complex at all, and it is certainly not my memory as I have 1gig. Anyone getting a similar error.

hmmm what kind of rendering are you trying to do??? Does it have Flash DOF or any posteffect in it, are you using any plugins like shaders or anything?

post effect would be DOF and glow. As for shader it was one of the SLA shaders. can't remember which one.

I've had this a few times as well, but I've also had it happen with R7. Again, the scenes weren't anything complicated, and it tended to happen 'after a while'. I know that this is of little help, sorry.

Also, with R8 I've been getting out of memory errors quite a lot whilst doing polygon modelling operations.

Basically, I found that after about an hour or so of modelling, I'd get an error whenever I tried to do anything, like selecting a vertex. Saving the scene, restarting C4D and reloading fixed it.

Sounds like some sort of memory leak, maybe?

(I was using 'cutter' occaisionally - don't know how compatible it is with R8, but it seemed to be behaving.)
