On the Pc Z3 was able to see 4gig, and now i have found there is a limit to 3gig on the MAC version. Is there anyway of getting it to see more?

How do you find out how much mem ZBRush can use?
I’m guessing ZB can only see 4Gb due to the fact that in the Preferences tab the memory allocation only goes up to 4096…
I’m guessing it cant see more as Zb is not 64bit…
Tis a shame as I have 8Gb waiting to crunch polys!!!
Buckie,
I understand what you’re saying, but the OP states his can only see 3GB, and I’m wondering how he determines that? Is his showing 3072? Or is there some other way he determined them mem allocation?
At the top of the Zbrush window it states how much mem is in use and how much is free, although this only seems to appear once you have taken an object into edit mode and played with it a little such as divide the mesh. And of course my issue is that it only seems to show a total of 3GB when on bootcamp it will see 4 (my system has 10).
Now I see what you’re saying, so did as you described with 3d sphere and after taking polys to 6.2 million, it reads:
Mem > 606+85 Free > 2561
But not sure how to interpret.
