Recording settings

Vissim generates *.avi video files that are played at a default rate of 20 frames per second. As each simulation time step generates exactly one picture, the playback speed depends on the number of time steps per simulation second: With a simulation resolution of 10 time steps, which is recommended, the playback speed is twice as fast as real time. If you choose to use only one time step per simulation second, the playback speed is 20 times faster than real time.

Note: Please note that changing the simulation resolution has an impact on the behavior of vehicles and pedestrians and thus might lead to different simulation results.

Besides standard recording, you have the following options (Selecting the 3D mode and 3D recording settings):

  • Anti-aliasing
  • Background texture compression
