Converting large .VTK files to carp_txt format with meshtool

+1 vote

Hello, I was recently trying to download a full heart model from this link in the Modeling Resources page. When i downloaded the 01.tar.gz, extracted the files, and then tried to run 

meshtool convert -imsh 01-350um -omsh my_mesh -ifmt vtk -ofmt carp_txt 

the terminal ran the first 3 seconds of conversion, froze for a bit, and then terminated (saying Killed). Am I loading the wrong mesh? Or is this just an issue with more complex meshes?

Hi!

We are not aware of issues with large meshes. Please make sure you do not run out of memory by tracking the memory consumption while running meshtool.

Best, Aurel
