Created page with "There are currently many versions of NSpre out there. The oldest version of NSpre which should work with any meshes created with Simmetrix versions prior to 7.2-120626, uses geo..."

New page

There are currently many versions of NSpre out there.

The oldest version of NSpre which should work with any meshes created with Simmetrix versions prior to 7.2-120626, uses geom.spj file (old attribute file format, created with simappssdk). This vesion can also use version_2 meshes.
To use this NSpre (if you still have geom.spj files), use

/users/kjansen/NSpre-Parasolid_Serial-mpich1-O

If you have crated your mesh with a version later than 7.2 libraries, most probably above

+There are currently many versions of NSpre out there. It falls into the category of code that few people change but it gets out of date because it is built against libraries from Simmetrix that do change a few times a year.  If you find that the current recommended version fails for your case, send an email to Professor Jansen and he will redirect the email to the current maintainer.
