OpenGL export problems

I am currently working on a simulator-like program which envolves big .obj files.

The Objimport library from processing 1.x is too slow and 2.0.1 says "framebuffer error".

Now I am using processing 2.0b6 and everything works fine.

When it comes to exporting, the 32bit exe gets stuck loading and the 64bit batch only runs on my PC and nowhere else.

What can I do to use the program on other systems?

The latest drivers are installed so I have no idea why the new release doesnt work.

I imagine that the latest stable release (2.0.3) gives you the same error as 2.0.1, did you try it out? Do you get the same framebuffer error with other OpenGL sketches, or only when loading your .obj files?

Yes, I also tried that with the same error.

The framebuffer error appeares in the examples too, not only when loading objects.

I am quite sure now that there is a problem with my pc as the new version works with my laptop.

There is no framebuffer error anymore but it freezes loading after a low memory warning.

The files are >10mb and loading the application on my desktop pc takes about 10 seconds.

If I add one more object or image it says that I should increase the java memory in the preferences.

This doesnt work either.

It is very difficult to reduce the object size, I am already rotating objects to reduce their number.

ok, and with 2.0b6 you didn't have any of these memory problems? If there is any .obj file similar to the ones you are using that you could post somewhere, I would take a look.

It is working now :)

The files were just too big.

I erased some details and lowered the size from 6.5mb to 6.1mb.

The program now runs smoothly on every system I tested it with.

I never thought that processing is capable of displaying that much data.

Version 2.0.3.

I am still having problems with my desktop pc and the compiled exe.

Maybe it has to do with Windows 8.1, going to switch back to 8 before october anyway .

EDIT:

Yep, it was Windows 8.1
