Error in Exporting VISSIM Animation

We have a Three Cycle Phasing Traffic Animation in VISSIM and when we try to export to Lumenrt in PowerGeopak SS4 08.11.09.904 platform it shows only the base image without the animation. The VISSIM data is around 500 MB. Is there limitation of VISSIM size in exporting to LumenRT.

We have encounter also the error as attach.

  • Hi JSP,

    That seems like a very large amount of VISSIM data.

    How long is the simulation in seconds?

    Do you need to show the entire length of the simulation or only a portion?

    If you only need a portion of your entire simulation I suggest that you limit your exported .anitxt file to only the necessary time-frame.

    You can also reduce the amount of VISSIM data produced by changing the time interval in VISSIM. I believe it is set to a fractional seconds value in the range of 1/1 to 1/10. If it is currently 1/10 then a new value of 1/5 would result in a 250 MB .anitxt file. A new value of 1/2 would reduce the file size to 100 MB.

  • can you share the files for review. since they are so large you can use the following link:

    We reduce the time interval in VISSIM to half from the original and it is now 160MB still the animation is not displayed. We used LumenRT CONNECT Update 5 16.05.02.60. The files has been uploaded in sharefile link. We have exported the same file previously without any issues.

  • We have exported the same file previously without any issues.

    JSP,

    You say you successfully exported the same file previously, so are you exporting over the top of that previous export?

    I have found that sometimes the previous export is causing the problem on subsequent exports and that a completely new export fixes the problem.

    Have you tried renaming the previous export so that an entirely new LRT file is created when you export?
