Recorder ver. 1.7.3

[Marco Faggella 2]

Silvia, Frank

I am running a Time History analysis using ver. 1.7.3, am recording a lot of output signals and getting this error:

WARNING - PathSeries::PathSeries() - could not open file Gmotion.txt

If I reduce the number of output stations, or just take out the recorder command, it works fine

suggestions?

you can only open 512 files. it is a limit microsoft places on number of openfiles an application can have (1024 if unix). suggest you write more stuff into the files, i.e. multiple elements in 1 file and multiple nodes in a file.
