Post by: aryanabla on January 01, 2014, 11:14:12 pm

Hello, i have 2 computers, one is iMac and otherone is PC.

PC config ( 8 core 16 gb ram ) Mac config ( 4 core 8 gb ram )

i can create sprite collection and commit it within several secconds with PC and no problem it works great.
but when i try to make samething with Mac it doesnt work, when i press commit button it taking too long time and do nothing. Most of time it crashes.

i couldnt figure out what is the problem.

can anyone help me please?

Does it consistently do nothing / crash? The memory footprint on Windows & OSX is slightly different. Unity is a 32 bit app, and as soon as memory usage hits around 3.5GB it will run out and die. It sounds like a lot, but Unity does some things super inefficiently when it comes to textures, eg. each texture is stored more than once in ram, etc. I suspect you're very very close to the limit, and it happens to just work on PC and is over the limit on OSX.

How many textures (rough dimensions & count) and are you using atlas spanning?

Thanks for reply.

i am using about 30 sprites ( these sprites are not big images, i can fit them in 1024px atlas with PC )

Hmm. Do you get any errors in the editor console when this happens?
Also, if you open up Console.app in OSX, do you see any errors under Unity/Editor.log / Editor-prev.log?

If you can reproduce this reliably, can you send a repro case to support at unikronsoftware.com, please?
