• Translate, rotate, and scale your vehicle geometry in the Vehicle Editor.

2-D programs will automatically run in Total Mass mode and 3-D programs will automatically run in Sprung Mass mode. Regardless of the setting in HVE, the program will run in the correct mode behind the scenes! Why leave the setting at all? This allows you to enter and review data in either mode, which is especially helpful in the vehicle editor.

SIMON and DYMESH have numerous enhancements:

• The tires and wheels can interact with the environment using DyMESH. Potential uses include tire / wheel impacts during rollovers and curb strikes.
• The DyMESH wheel damage option has a start time per wheel.
