Nebucadnezar Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Hello Guys, I have been working on a FLIP sim for the past couple of days and it keeps on randomly crashing when I cache it using Rop output driver, the error is : "1420: Fatal error: Segmentation fault" This is really annoying, I updated my version of Houdini but it didn't solve the problem. I read on the forum that it is a GPU problem, but it doesn't seem very clear, can someone confirm that? I am wondering if I should invest in a better GPU card (quadro range) but I want to be certain that it will solve the problem. Here is my current configuration : - Intel Core i7 4930K3.4Ghz - 48 Gigs of RAM - Geforce GT640 4Gigs Any help or info on this would be really really appreciated!

3iart Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Did you try turning 'cache simulation' off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebucadnezar Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 No I didn't try that as I was saving .sim files along with .bgeos in order to restore the sim if needed. I will try it to see if it works that way. Thank you for the reply! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebucadnezar Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Thanks a lot 3iart, the simulation worked with 'cache simulation' off! It is a bit annoying to only have bgeos in case of a crash during the simulation though or is there a trick to get it to work and still save some .sim files?

3iart Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) "Allow Caching to Disk" or maybe "explicit cache" or maybe both... (in the dopnet.) I have never used this, so I don't know if it will do what you want. Edited July 7, 2015 by 3iart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
