Dear Luisa,

I think that Landmark software is only using 4 GB of memory. It does not
matter how much you have on your computer. As Viviana said you can decimate
your 3d models in order to make it work in Landmark, but the best way to do
the morphing would be to use R and the warp.mesh function in the Morpho
package which will do the deformation of a 3d model according to a landmark
configuration.

All the best,
Aurélien
