Calabar Posted November 2, 2014 Half a million bricks? I'm sorry to tell that to you, but LDD is unable to manage such a number of bricks even with the most powerful PC. It is a limit of the software, not a limit of the machine: LDD has not been designed for such workloads. Obviously a powerful PC helps to manage a large amount of bricks, but half a million are too much. This issue has been previously discussed on this board, for example in this topic. PS: as the user bbqqq discovered, the limit is related to the number of polygons and not the the number of bricks (click). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zerobricks Posted November 2, 2014 Try to lower graphical settings to low as possible, that might help you a bit... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The BrickYard Posted November 2, 2014 Thanks Guys, l have never used LDraw but l'm guessing that has it's limitation's aswell ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
legolijntje Posted November 2, 2014 Yes, LDraw also has it's limitations. The limit depends on the software you use (for example MLcad, LDCad, SR3D Builder or BrickSmith) and the specs of your computer, but I think they will also struggle with half a million parts. Can't you split your model in three or four pieces? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
