Do you have access to any resource or documentation to learn about OpenSim Creator API scripting? like MATLAB or Python? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

OpenSim Creator is, at time of writing (v0.5.12), an GUI application that does not export its own library interface. The recommended way to automate/script model building is to use OpenSim directly, which is documented here: Anecdotally, many users tend to either use OpenSim via MATLAB on Windows, or via Anaconda (python) on all platforms. The C++ API is the true "core"/language of OpenSim (it's what OpenSim Creator uses), and is recommended if you intend on writing low-level performance-sensitive features. There is a longer-term desire to add automation/scripting to OpenSim Creator, but my vision for that is to provide a simple Blender-like python interface to the engine, and for that scripting API to be a simpler subset of OpenSim (which is ultimately what robust GUI-free code should use). |
