Scroll Prev Top Next More

Vensim 5.11a is a bug fix release that addresses two problems that were new to the 5.11 release.  It also addresses a number of pre-existing bugs.

Documentation Changes:

Several sample functions and example files have been modified.

Enhancements:

Vensim upgrade links have been modified to match the updated web site

Bug Fixes:

CORRECTED:  Use of the Stats tool resulted in a crash..

CORRECTED:  Long error messages and model notes were split into many lines.

ODBC settings in the Simulation Control Dialog have been fixed.  Sample files have been updated to reflect Windows 7 installation directories (Users/Public).

CORRECTED:  An exceptionally large Payoff value was causing Vensim to crash.

Table arrays were using an excessive amount of memory when WARNINGS were enabled.  This has been dramatically reduced.

Known Issues:

 

We expect the following to be corrected in a subsequent release; email help for assistance if you need a workaround in the interim:

 

Placing macro output variables on sketches causes a crash

Attempting to display a lookup in a Table Tool with 2D Subscripting active causes a crash

The :EXCEPT: feature is not supported for subscripted LOOKUP tables.  If you manage to create an entry, Vensim will crash if you try to check or simulate the model.

 

Mac Only:

 

File and directory links in the HTML help system do not work as well with Firefox as they do when Safari is the default web browser.
