Hi,

I just updated the game and now when I go into a quick mission I get a RED Message across my screen that says "OUT OF MEMORY"??

OK I thought 4gb was good enough what happened here I even turned down the settings to near min..

My specs are in my signature.. this system should be more then adequete..and 4gb was fine before the patch??

I know this is a fob off but if you are using 64 bit Windows then get more RAM, its cheap. If you are using 32 bit Windows then upgrade it to 64 bit and get more RAM, its cheap.

If you have Vista or Windows 7 then your CD Key will let you activate the 64 Bit version of your OS.

You donīt need more RAM. If you upgrade to 64bit OS ROF will have at least 3 GB available - that will be enough !
ROF makes use of the "LAA flag", so it gets up to 4 GB if you have 6 or more installed. But with 32bit OS ROF gets only 2 GB as any other application as well.

Get rid of all skins you donīt need, that will reduce the RAM usage. The video memory usage has nothing to do with it.

How does that work - I've downloaded all the skins AND I have them turned on for multiplayer and I'm only using XP which iirc only uses 3Gb max.
And my ancient machine manages ok.

OK It appears when I enable the S3D Effect that is when I get the out of memory error message it is fine when I turn it off..

So to make a long story short I need MORE RAM!!

S3D? Is that the supersampling effect that brings most systems to its knees?

Hi, S3D is Stereoscopic 3D you know like a 3D movie..

when I enable S3D it it must be doubling the amount of RAM used and I bottom out..SUCKS!!

well I just ordered 8gb of RAM. I will know have 12gb of memory if that is not enough well....

This is the ONLY game I know that Brought my new system too it's knees

Maybe here some good reading on this. http://riseofflight.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=128&t=21432

I use to use ROF in 3d way back, and it worked fine with 4 gigs of ram. As soon as about 2 or 3 updates ago, I started getting the out of memory message you are getting. (You have to turn post effects off to use 3D). I really didnt care, since the 3D gave me headaches and the 3D effect didnt look all that great anyway with ROF. Rise of flight is not made to work with 3D and it was very hard to aim with it too. Things at a distance looked good but stuff up close like the gun sights are completly out of focus. I think something changed in ROF a few patches ago that stops the 3d from working now.

I tried it on my friends PC with 6 gigs or ram and he gets out of memory also when the 3D is enabled. I hate to say it, but the 12gigs of ram probably wont make a difference, but since ram is cheap now, why not.
If it does work, let me know.
