Thanks for all the info. I knew about the Script Command Set and am in the process if modifying my FORTRAN simulation to write an output file that I can then import into Swivel to animate a 3d model of my vehicle. I just got confused when you talked about importing spreadsheet data and thought there might be an easier way to do it directly instead of writing the script command file. I already have Working Model, but I haven't figured out how to get it to output info such as absorbed power that I need. Also, it runs WAY too slow to be able to model a complex vehicle, even on an 040. The FORTRAN simulation takes around 2 minutes to simulate 20 seconds of real time measuring every .001 seconds. But I have used it on smaller models though I haven't linked to MM3d. Is there a script command set for MM3d similar to Swivel? Can I write the script files myself instead of having Working Model write them? I'd like to animate MacroModel models brought into MM3d rather than Swivel models since they look a lot better. I didn't see demos of any of your software at MacWorld, even though I was there for the whole show. I'm bummed that I missed Smart 3d. Where was your stuff being shown? Larry Furnari There is 1 Reply.
