The Model Reader is an application that allows read-only access to models created with Vensim. You can distribute the Model Reader installation program free with your models so that others can simulate and analyze the models without using Vensim itself. You can download the model reader from our website.
The Model Reader will work with models created with Vensim PLE through DSS. Models created with Vensim DSS, except those that make use of external functions, will also work with the Model Reader. It is also not possible to access models through DDE connections using the model reader, that capability is available only in Vensim DSS.
SyntheSim works with the Vensim Model Reader, though you cannot override the behavior of variables.
