Crash when increasing target vertex count

[lemairecarl]

Steps

Using build: Visual Studio 2015 / Win32 / RelWithDebInfo

1. Load this mesh. Notice that Target vertex count is: 60.12K;
2. Increase Target vertex count to >100K (110.05K to be precise);
3. Wait for a few seconds as the program loads and processes the mesh.

   Result

Instant Meshes crashes. Visual studio shows this dialog:

Unhandled exception at 0x00F8801E in Instant Meshes.exe: Fatal program exit requested.

Console window shows:

Caught exception in event handler: bad allocation

Notes:

• Computer does not run out of memory.
• Why is there no 64bit configuration in the .sln?

Can you try with a 64 bit build? You'll need to run cmake-gui and select the 64 bit project generator for this to work.

Closing since there was no feedback. Feel free to reopen if you still have issues with a 64 bit build.
