Bin files too large to open??

Post by AliceCharlotte »

Hi,

I am trying to open a large bin file ~140,000 KB, but Cloud compare crashes before opening the file (It says that Cloud Compare has stopped working. A problem has casued the program to stop working correctly....

Do you know if this is because the file is too large? If so, is there a way that you can open the files in another way so that it opens. They are mesh files.

Thanks!

Hi,

I don't believe this is a size issue (a 140 Mb file is quite small for CC in fact ;). And it shouldn't be a reason for CC to crash anyway.

Can you give me more information about this issue:
- what version of CC are you using? on what OS?
- where does the file come from? Has it been generated with the same version of CC?

And maybe the best thing would be to send me the file if possible (via dropbox or google drive for instance) at 'cloudcompare[at]danielgm.net'.
