    $\begingroup$ @J.M. For my bigger problem I have used various combinations of Image3D and/or Show/Graphics3D@*Raster3D etc, etc. In the end Show always gives a Graphics3D[{Raster3D[...], Opacity[.6], Cuboid[...]}] or similar. If you have a concrete working example, please do share. A colleague managed to generate the image on our institute's grid with MMA 10.1. Contrary to this, MMA 10.4 consumed 0.1 TB of memory on the MWE, before we killed the process. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 29, 2016 at 13:25

    $\begingroup$ I also had a problem rendering Raster3D intersecting with Point using Mathematica 10.4.1 for this answer (the bottom image): it simply crashed the FrontEnd and I was forced to use version 10.0.1 which works fine. Your example also crashes my FrontEnd. Since you can't render also with versions 10.2 and 10.4, I assume the bug was introduced in version 10.2 and become even worse in the latest release. I have added the appropriate tags and the header. $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 1, 2016 at 5:39
  • $\begingroup$ @AlexeyPopkov I can render a Point inside a Raster3D just fine on MMA 10.2. As I can also render a cuboid. The problem arises when I introduce Opacity[.6], and it also happens in 10.1. I think your edit is somewhat inaccurate. $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 1, 2016 at 9:14
  • $\begingroup$ @LLlAMnYP Feel free to rollback my edit. It looks like the problem you describe may be separate from the crashes I experience with version 10.4.1 (but may be not - we can't be sure). In the previous comment you wrote that MMA 10.4.0 takes a lot of memory, so it doesn't crash? So you have a wrong rendering with versions 10.1 and 10.2 and the memory issue with version 10.4.0? Please include this information in the question and also a screenshot(s) the FrontEnd with "an empty box with a tiny little square" instead of the expected output in order to make the question more precise. $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 1, 2016 at 9:26
