Simulistics

I purchased the Standard version of Simile 5.0.3.32  around 2008. Recently, I lost my program in a hardware upgrade. What will it cost to upgrade it to the latest version. 

Thanks,

Dan Campbell

I have been looking at some of the models in the Mondel Gallry to learn more about certain aspects of Simile. I notice that the ones I have looked at include the .sml files, but not the associated .shf files. Are these available somewhere on the website? One model I have look at is the animal1.sml model.

I have defined a variable as being a variable parameter with a range of 0 to 10 and having units of int. If I set the initial value (in the box below) to 0, when I save the equation and go back in, I see that the units have been changed to real. If I keep everything the same, but set the initial value to 1, the units stay as int. What gives? (using 6.4 on a Mac)

I have been trying to use the Edit as table function for a graphical function. When I enter a number such as 22 for the value, hit ok, and then hit Edit as table again, I see that the number has change, if only slightly, to 22.029, or in another case to 21.9807. What is going on?

Sincerely, Dale

Almost every time I save a .shf file that includes a Data Table helper, I get an error indicating "A software error occurred while attempting to restore the I/O tool "Data table" from the saved setup."  When I click on more details, I get the information below. Any thoughts?

p.s. I am using v6.4 on a Mac, but that choice was not available under Version.

I was trying to figure out how to initialize a random-number generator, but ran into trouble when I could not find it in the run-time environment when I looked under the Add menu in the run-time environment. I looked at various help pages, which lead me to to IOTools folder. There I see a tool called Setrand.tcl, which I assume is what I am looking for. How do I get this to appear in my list of available tools? I am running a v6.3p2 standard, 64-bit on a Mac running Yosemite. I also see some other tools that are also not appearing in the run-time environment list.

Thanks, Dale
