| - | Later versions of Prep allowed the user to view data from the spectrum and time history graphs on the model surface in an time stepped animation and static 3d models. These animations gave users an understanding of what is going on that the line graphs simply can't capture. These animations have been ported to the Submodeler. The Submodeler uses a newer version of Open GL than was used in prep to take advantage of the hardware advancements made in current video cards. The data format that the video card requires for animation can not be written directly by the FORTRAN modules. Therefore, the frame output of the modules was slightly modified for use by the Submodeler and this extra processing step has been added. | + | Later versions of Prep allowed the user to view data from the spectrum and time history graphs on the model surface in an time stepped animation and static 3d models.

| The user must provide an animation list file and a frame storage directory by either browsing or manually typing the location of the File and the Desired directory. The [[file:anilist|Animation list file format]] is the same format frame listing file format from SASSI-PREP (all *.dispani, *.tfiani, and *.impani). The file will be read in a similar fashion in the SASSI User Interface, however the first line header information will be ignored because the processing step can take a long time based on the size of the model and the number of frames to be processed, so the user should only do this once. The user can then modify the frames to be used in the animation on the animation loading screen. The data description and the plot type box are for informational purposes. However, the user should fill these in will help in using the animation in future runs. | The user must provide an animation list file and a frame storage directory by either browsing or manually typing the location of the File and the Desired directory.
