Using objects for simulations

Post by Aushim Nagarkatti » Tue Dec 18, 2018 5:32 am

I am using 3D objects (from this library- https://simtk.org/projects/simgym ) to make my simulation look more realistic, on OpenSim 4.0.
I have added the STL files to the path where the other geometry files are located for that model and included the necessary 'Body' code in the XML file.
The first instance of any 3D object i use (that is connected to ground) works, and the model initializes without error.
The first instance of any 3D object not connected to ground or the use of more than one 3D object results in the model not even loading - no errors, just no output on the GUI
The XML code works fine, as i have tried the simulation using the geometry files of bones instead of the 3D Objects i had downloaded
Any ideas?
Also, it would be really helpful if someone could link me to vtp files i could download for the simulation. I mainly just need metallic rod-like structures
Thanks!
