Hi bigseb, that's a pretty long time to wait.

> How can I tell if it is actually doing something?

If you open up Windows task manager and look at the line for MoI.exe and it has activity in the CPU column, that means that it is still crunching away and not actually crashed.

Is it possible that you've maxed out memory consumption or something like that ?

MoI does use multiple cores currently for the mesh generation stage when exporting to a polygon mesh format.

Making use of multiple cores is a very delicate and error prone operation though, it involves splitting things up into a lot of smaller separate tasks that can be executed in parallel and then carefully coordinating them when they finish.

It's not something that you just turn a switch on and it automatically gives improvements, it takes a lot of special work to make use of multiple cores and it also is only suited for types of calculations that can be split up into small pieces.

I do want to make use of multiple cores in some more situations in MoI in the future but it tends to be an area that requires a lot of careful work.
