Fusion in David4 quitting. Too many scans?

[micr0]

I have a project with 54 "quality" scans of a fairly complex engine castings. I've cleaned them up, aligned etc. but I can't seem to fuse them. If I try to fuse 20 or more scans David starts then the red progress bar goes away and nothing happens. It still says that it's fusing the scans at the bottom left of the window but it isn't working and the other buttons and menus are selectable again. Has anyone had this problem? I'm running this on a dell workstation running win 7 64 with 8gig of ram. I'm suspecting a memory problem but I've fused meshes with a larger number of scans than this before. Any one have any ideas?

Bump.

Plus some additional info. first I'm trying to fuse at 1000 with the sharpness set to 3. second, after some experimentation I have been able to fuse up to 50 of the scans but not all 54. I can get 50 to work if I reboot and have no other applications open, load the project and do nothing else but run fusion. However it is not consistent. All that said, I have to assume that I'm running out of system memory. I will try doing the fusion on another system and see what happens. If anyone has any suggestions for settings for better memory management I'd appreciate it. I feel my system should be able to handle this task though.

Hello,
The same is happening to me now, but never did it before. I had crashes while fusing, but never this weird "aborted fusion" issue...

I unistalled david and re-installed. Now it is not doing it...

I have 128gig yes gig of ram. i have 4 2tb ssd drives. and finally an i7- multi core processer. I get 50 scans and at around 52 total crash. i loose the entire file even though i save after about every 5 scans. i have reinstalled the software and it still does the same thing.
this is a huge issue for me.

can you tell us please which version of Windows and DAVID you have, so we can try to recreate the problem?

Hello, I have the same problem 32G RAM, only used up about 10G during processing.

Version: 4.5.3, build 1374.

It kept quitting and I thought it was random (tried 5 times, adjusted 1000-700 once, all ended with a warning window).

Any update would be helpful.

Best regards.

How many scans do you have? Try to fuse single scans, maybe one of them have error, also try to fuse them without texture, just for the test.
