when i tried to run my casting simulation i get this message and i have checked my ram availability and other satisfactory requirements too. I have also not set my run directory to a shared drive or virtual one, but i have not yet done my reinstallations.

what would it be the problem

    Hello,

    I just tested that the model is working fine in Inspire Cast 25. If you are using older version, I suggest to use latest. Also, I noticed that the gravity direction in your setup is incorrect.

    So even now after i try to simulate it in inspire cast 2025, i doesnt give me error creating new process

    but now i see a new message of error which shows

    so what show i do now as this model that i have used now has been tested in both the versions of the inspire cast 24 and 25

    24 says error creating new process
    25 says meshing error

    so please help me find answer for this issue as I'm unable to do anything with this simulation software. I hope to get good answers from the community. THANK YOU

    i have used this model
    The 3d model file that i have uploaded will be having an Un connectivity between the ingates and the cast part but have cleared it in the simulation software and then i when i chose to run this happened for solidification analysis.

    Hello @venomousDNA ,

    I have figured out the cause of mesh failure. It was related to the way runner system was connected to the part. I have fixed it and now it has started computing the simulation. I have also attached the fixed CAD here. Please use this and it will work fine.

    Thanks much! May I know how you identified the error? What are the changes that has been made?

    Yes. if you look at your model closely, cast part and runner is connected by 3 small entinties. Not sure how you created them. As they are separate thin bodies, mesh creation was difficult as you are trying to create with large element size. I combined those bodies with runner using Boolean.

    Hi @MilanRaval

    Understood. I had issues with Un connectivity, so I used Boolean modifier to fix the three gating issues you mentioned, but even then, I'm getting mesh creation error. Also, now when I tried running your file, I'm getting error: Error creating new process and also the mesh error occasionally
