Simulation 2010 Animation Error ( Animation Frames Cannot be Generated)

Poovaiah Devenira Jun 7, 2010 2:47 PM

Hi,

Does anyone have a problem with Simulation 2010 animation after running a stress analysis? Usually after running an analysis, I would right click on the results and then click on animation. In 2010, it does not seem to be working for me. I have checked the deformed shape options in the results.

Since most of my assemblies are large, I taught it must be an issue with the size of the model. Therefore, I ran a test on a simple beam and I still ran into this error- ‘Animation frames cannot be generated’.

I never had this problem in 2009.

I have a screen shot of the error attached

Just done a simple analysis in x64 2010 Premium (Win 7) and stress-result animation is ok. Never seen this problem - so sorry can't help. Will try the same on my x64 XP system...

...Which is ok as well. I'm using SP3.0 (and I have to say this is the first stable 2010 x64 SP). Again, can't help apart from all the clean-installation stuff that you can probably find elsewhere.

Try reducing the number of frames in the animation. Halve the number of frames, or increase the frame interval.

  Hi,
  
  I tried playing around with the frames and speed with not much help.
