Hi Calvin,

Many thanks for you and your team's great work on this neck model.

I am however having difficulties to open the model in OpenSim. I get the following error message.

Component 'supmult-C4/5-C2_r' of type Millard2012EquilibriumMuscle contains invalid characters of: '\/*+
'.
Thrown at component.cpp:199 in finalizeFromProperties().

Can you possibly assist?

I am still very new with OpenSim, so might be something simple that I am doing incorrectly when opening the model?

Thanks!
Cornel

Hi Cornel,

Sorry for the late reply, I don't usually check the forums. What version of OpenSim are you using? The model was built I believe in OpenSim 3.3, so things might have changed if you are using the newer version of OpenSim 4.0

The error seems fairly straightforward though in that I believe OpenSim is complaining about the name of the particular muscle having invalid characters it doesn't like (namely the backslash '/'). A quick fix would be to remove or replace those characters.

Hope that helps,
Calvin
