Service Pack 1 for Simulation Mechanical 2015 has launched for both the desktop client and the flex client. Below is a list of the issues that have been addressed with this service pack.
Crash
Fatigue Wizard
Linear Static Stress (LSS)
Mechanical Event Simulation (MES)
Results
1Note: If new design scenarios with different analysis types are created from a linear static stress analysis in which graphing was attempted, the graphing functions can fail for those analysis types as well.
Third-Party FEA Support
Vault

I got excited when I heard the news, as I was told that getting Vault 2015 working with Simulation was of the highest priorty.
I was very dissapointed to find out that it had not been included in this service pack.
As it stands, Simulation Mechanical 2015 is not compatible with Vault 2015!
From the read-me:
"Vault
How does it being reccongnized as a qualifying product help if it is not compatible?
How can a group of developers use the wrong developer package from the same company? Is this software not Beta tested?
And who do I have to get ahold of to get a refund for the other Autodesk products we've purchased that we cannot use because of this mistake?
Hi Andrew,
I know your are a bit frustrated with not being able to use Simulation Mechanical 2015 with Vault 2015 through the Simulation Mechanical interface. With the changes that went into effect in Service Pack 1, Simulation Mechanical 2015 files can be checked-in and checked-out using the Vault 2015 interface rather than directly in the Simulation Mechanical interface. This will likely lengthen you and your colleagues workflow, but it should allow you to continue to use Vault. I'm working on creating documention on this procedure for you and other customers that are not able to use Vault 2015 directly in the Simulation Mechanical interface.
