Not able to visualise in smokeview using right mouse button

[DVEMPENY]

Hey FDS community,

I am not able to use the right mouse button for the load/Unload menu for large solution files exceeding 400 GB. I was able to load smoke for smaller solution files. But in larger files the RMB is not working, even though I am able to zoom in/out and rotate the domain. I am using SMV 6.10.1 version, and my Windows machine has 256 GB RAM and NVIDIA RTX A4500 Graphics Card.

Could any one please help me out?
Thank you

you will not be able to load 512GB of data on a computer with 256GB of memory. smokeview has options for reducing memory requirements when loading data. open the Dialogs>Files/Data/Coloring... dialog box then the Load options tab. you can set the min time, max time and frame skip for data you load.

I have checked the use GPU box, set the min time, max time and also compressed the solution file using smokezip. Still I am facing the same issue.
I am attaching a snap short of the compression.

I have tried 'smokeview casename -smoke3d' and able to see only the soot. Is there any option where I can only visualise the velocity slice files

Apologies Glenn,I am not allowed to share the input file. Is it possible to get the contours directly from the .sf files using python script?
Thanks
