Unable to find body geometries

Post by Thomas Madden » Thu Sep 14, 2023 2:42 pm

Hi,

When I try to load a model, none of the bodies are visible. I get errors like "Couldn't find file 'sacrum.vtp'." for each of the vtp files. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling (version 4.4), but the problem persists. Are these files missing from the download? Is there another way to get those files?

Thank you,
Thomas

Hello,

The vtp files are included in the distribution e.g. if the application is installed into D:\OpenSim 4.4, they would be under D:\OpenSim 4.4\Geometry.
Under the Edit->Preferences menu of the application there is an entry for "Geometry Search Path" that should point to this folder "D:\OpenSim 4.4\Geometry\" if not then you can add the folder above to the search paths there (Actual name depends on the choices made during installation).

Hope this helps,
-Ayman

Ah, the search path was to a different folder. I can see the body geometries now. Thank you!
