Algodoo

Probably a jokester placed it there???

Yup, a spirit jokester!


Actually, I posted this scene in order to get people into the Halloween mood. Hopefully we will see many more Halloween related scenes over the next couple of weeks.

So I've been having an issue of late where my game will randomly run out of memory once I go above a few thousand objects (Which happens more often than you'd think when trying to simulate particle dynamics or making charts/art not meant to be unpaused). and I want to ask a couple questions:

First of all, I don't know how to save as PHN rather than PHZ, as the game suggests (Which would at least allow me to pick up where I left off after restarting the game)

Secondly, I also noticed by opening the console at startup that the game only seems to allocate 85.5 MiB of VRAM to itself even though my computer has 8 GB dedicated RAM available. So I'd actually prefer if there's a way to make the game just allocate more RAM to itself so I don't have to deal with it in the first place. (Ideally, also using the actual dedicated RAM of my PC rather than VRAM)

MoBuilds -- I do not know how Algodoo allocates RAM, but I know someone at Algoryx who does. I will send a copy of your questions to him and I'll let you know what he says as soon as I hear back from him. It will probably be a few days, so please allow some time for his answer.

Thanks!

MoBuilds -- Here is his reply to your questions: "We are working on a new version of Algodoo with support for more memory, however, VRAM is the graphics card memory, not the computer memory. Currently Algodoo is limited to 2 GB usage of computer memory on Windows (since it is a 32-bit application)."

He was not able to give me a timeline because Algoryx employees are busy working on new products and maintaining their current products. Algodoo is a freebee and so, understandably, they do not assign high priority to it.
