safe_malloc failed on allocation of 8256 bytes

that is the error i have gotten on 2 maps ive tried doing anywhere from(test) to full compile .

the number of bytes in the error string are different for the maps . Google has brought up a couple of things but none seems relevant to netradiant . they say use a -lomem switch , but im not sure how . others have said things about configuring the shader file ??!! . Im on brand new pc and cant understand why my previous slow computer with less memory could handle mikee sized map compiles and this one cant .

I've made sure all ram hogging programs are closed . I've tried to compile with previous version of nexuiz . and messed with page file cache . same problem

Netradiant or Nexuiz? If you're talking about the former please post this error on http://dev.alientrap.org/projects/show/netradiant

Cheers

I'd need your map files plus all used shader and textures to debug that.

here is beta version 4 , compiled under fourth option from the top . thanks for your time

bump

i seem to have found a way around it . like radiant said disable build process monitoring . so i did and i can compile fully now and the process log is in /.netradiant /1.5.0/junk.txt

in linux it gave me the error " could not find suitable socket on #### "

after watching system monitor it shows that the ram usage goes all the way to 2Gb and the swap file pegs out also . Now build monitoring off shows the same thing but it keeps going . beware pc may run really slow during this time . be patient
