I have posted this query on 17th Jan as well but could not get any positive reply.

I am currently trying my hands on flexible bodies analysis. I have been following few videos and they all suggest to click on an option called as "Create RBE2 spiders" but in my student version of 2024, it is disabled and I have tried to look for help in discussion but I could not found any thread regarding this problem.

Can someone tell me is it a glitch or is there something which was wrong during software download?

    Hi @Sharma_rahul,

    When in MotionView, can you please go to File » Help » Updates and System Information, and provide a screenshot like the following?

    If you are missing solvers or applications then that may be the cause.

    The 2 key items are the hwDesktop2024.1 and hwSolvers2024.1

    Hope this helps!
