Hullo,
I'm creating volumes from image data, and from the looks of it i3dgen can't create volumes larger that 2gb. (size on disk)
Is this a known limitation?
9.1.218 xp64
Maybe >2gig volumes are a bad idea anyway - but ram is cheap these days and inquiring minds want to play..
Btw, is there a real benefit in splitting something up into several volumes, or does the tiled block format handle things efficiently enough anyway?

First I made 256^3 and 512^3 volumes and they worked fine. When i tried to step up to a 1024 volume, i3dgen errored out after a while (“can't create attribute: density” or something like that). It left behind a 2gb .i3d
After that, i tried stepping down to 800, 720 and then 640 - always the same error and a 2gb file. Then 512 again worked fine and resulted in a working 1.9gb file. I'm writing r g and b as well as density.
My source data is rather large, but I'll whip up a procedural example hip.
