Hello,
I am writing a code for simulations and the population is quite big.
I am using VS 2103 C++ and I try to increase the stack with the command
/F4194304 %(Additional Options), using the command line properties.
This should give me more stack, but it fails. i cannot get more then about one MByte.this is the max the linker allows me.

 const int n = 63;	
 particle *box[n][n][n];

Does anybody know why it fails and what I should do instead? Or is there another way to use the 8GByte of RAM that is on my machine?

If you have 8 GB you won't be able to use it all. The operating system and other things are going to use some of it.
