Any way to import patient visuals from HC to GP People Module ?

[ FlexSim 18.1.1 ]

In Flexsim GP with People Module, I need to create persons walking with crutches and persons walking with a walker such as they are in HC.

How coul I import those into the GP Flowitem bin?

Thanks,

@Patrick Cloutier I was looking into it yesterday too. It seems that there is animation from HC that you need to import. The people in HC is still using the old legacy operator, so you might need to change to that first. Let me know if it works. 🙂

Thanks David, I see you need the same thing as me. But that doesn't answer the question: How do I import the HC animation itto GP?

I went in GP, person item, Properties Windows, Animations and click on Load. Choose the HC file Manoncrutches.t

It loads the 3D file but not the animation.

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,

Patrick,

I suppose it's possible but a lot of work that I personally wouldn't be up to tackling. Our plans for a supporting cast of characters for the People Module is to wait for @phil.bobo to finish some development he's now engaged in that will make it possible to easily add and modify bone animation characters within the FlexSim software, and then to build up a default set of characters to ship out with the HC 2019 version that will use the People Module.

It works. I loaded animation manoncrutches.t into a person flowitem but to make it work I renamed the animations: Changed Standing for Stand and Walking for Walk. It was that easy. Attached is the result.

Good job Patrick! Keep in mind it works because you have an installation of HC 5.3 installed on your computer so it can find all the body part shapes...
