Issue with large IGES file

[NormandC]

I think I'm gonna give another try to that 85MB Biggs-Stratton engine STEP file

Wow... I would very much like to see that file too! Can you share?

Hi Yorik,

I downloaded it for free from 3DContentCentral, but the terms of use prohibit distribution of data.

You can download it from this link, but you need to create a free account :

Anyway I'm not able to open it with v0.12.4419, after about 60 seconds FreeCAD quits.

Great! I'm registering right now...

*EDIT*
Just tried to import the file, all went well, until:
freecad: /home/yorik/Apps/FreeCAD/src/Mod/Part/Gui/ViewProviderExt.cpp:580: void PartGui::ViewProviderPartExt::updateVisual(const TopoDS_Shape&): Assertion `0' failed.
Abnormal program termination...

But ViewProviderExt.cpp is the new viewprovider that Jürgen is coding, so it is still most probably buggy, so this is normal...

Anyway, this is a very, very good test file
