About this release
We gladly announce the bug-fix version 25.1.4, for ANSA, EPILYSIS, META, KOMVOS and SPDRM, with critical bug fixes and selected implementations.
Known issues resolved in ANSA
GUI
Screen display would fluctuate in delay upon mouse click, while space mouse was active.
CAD Import / Export
Several issues would be encountered upon translation of CATIA V4 models.
Modular Run Management
External connectors would disappear when replacing a simulation model from DM in a simulation run.
Data Management
When importing a Library Item and a PrePostUploadMainFileScriptFunction was set in ANSA.defaults file, the ANSA_BATCH license would not be released, unless exiting ANSA.
Shell Meshing
ANSA would terminate unexpectedly when running check for Solid Cracks.
ANSA would exit abnormally, in case of applying "Grids > Align" function to target Plotel entities.
Volume Meshing
Manual execution of the Volume Mesh function multiple times would lead to ANSA termination.
Focusing on Structured Meshing, MAP window did not behave consistently after pressing "Back" to deselect entities.
LS-DYNA
Unexpected termination would occur when reading *PARAMETER_LOCAL entries and the Include file name containing the parameter was too long.
Moreover, partially encrypted materials would be erroneously output.
Abaqus
ANSA would cease operating when Contact entities used in the respective assistant were defined on Properties with long names.
Optistruct
ANSA would exit abnormally when copying PTFORCES using the Transform function.
Known issues resolved in EPILYSIS
Contacts
Unexpected software abortion would occur in cases where both moment-carrying glue(IGLUE=3/4) and non-moment-carrying glue(IGLUE=1/2) contacts existed in the model.
Unexpected termination would also occur in cases where different values were set in the "FNTOL" field.
Known issues resolved in META
GUI
Syncing windows were not operating smoothly along with space mouse navigation actions.
LS-DYNA
Abrupt software termination would occur when time history results were to be read and abstat_cpm results were included in the same directory.
Geometry was not read properly when the DEFINE_TRANSFORMATION keyword was used.
In addition, D3ZCF files were not input correctly.
Pam-Crash
Reading Pam-Crash results from files compressed with FEMZIP version 16.28 would occasionally lead to abnormal termination, when SELOUT was involved.
Abaqus
Unexpected termination would occur upon reading results on integration points.
Centroid value was incorrectly computed when scalar results for CPE8 elements were read using the IntPnt option.
Reading results using the "Layer" option did not work properly.
Ansys
ANSA would cease operating when deformation was loaded using displacements values, stored in single-precision format.
Moldex3D
Results from Moldex3D 2025R could not be successfully read.
FEMZIP
META would terminate unexpectedly when loading an ERF file compressed with FEMZIP version 16.28.
Optistruct
Wrong result values were read from Optistruct .pch files for TRIA elements.
Managing Curve Data
Unexpected termination would occur during output of multiple curves into .pch format.
Copying curves to other plots would change the target plot title, even if it was locked.
NVH Calculators
Disassembly tool did not work as expected, when the starting frequency was set to 0 Hz.
Report Composer
Snapshots of Report Composer windows in batch mode would not provide the expected result.
Known issues resolved in KOMVOS
Configuration – Setting Profiles
Upon disconnecting from an SPDRM environment and trying to connect back, KOMVOS could freeze on the "Settings Profile" selection window.
Known issues resolved in SPDRM
Installer
SPDRM updater failed to upgrade installations below version 1.11.2 to 25.1.3, causing an error in "Step 7 Mid update scripts".
Process Management
Execution time is now drastically reduced for process nodes that generate a large volume of print messages, resulting in faster and more efficient processing, especially on Windows OS.
Users Management – Security
Under certain circumstances, it was not possible to manage the versioning options available to specific roles due to a display issue in the "Set Versioning ACL" window, where the corresponding checkboxes were not visible for those roles.
Web Services – API
When the SPDRM server ran on the default HTTPS port (443), access to the SPDRM Admin web portal failed due to the port being omitted from the URL
