I am making some more tests and will provide more insights here:
- I just tried to build the network bit by bit by just manually writing height outputs I spread across to disk to see inbetween states. It went well so far but once I hit a regular build to finally build the rest of the network that was leftover, world machine crashed. I am using minimal memory conservation mode atm.
- Cleaned up my file by removing all the deactivated parts. A build with maximum memory conservation went through without a problem.
- Did another build with the cleaned up file with minimal memory conservation. World Machine had to page to disk and crashed again. The hard drive is neither full nor broken and the wm temporary files folder is set to the same hard drive wm is installed on (C:_scratchdisk\wm_temp) worldmachine_crash_date22-03_25-15-50.zip (237.3 KB)
So from the current tests it feels like the disk paging might be causing the crashes.
Update: Just stumbled over this thread and will try around with the recommendations posted there.
