Attributes of 2D/3D model segments

You can select the 3D model file that defines the model segment of the vehicle or vehicle segment. If the vehicle or vehicle segment should be equipped with axles, shafts or clutches, you can define these in the attributes of model segments.

1. On the Base Data menu, click > 2D/3D Model Segments.

The 2D/3D Model Segments list opens.

The attribute and attribute values of this base data type are shown in the list on the left, which consists of two coupled lists.

Note: In lists, you can use the Attribute selection icon to show and hide attribute values (Selecting attributes and subattributes for columns of a list).

2. Click the desired entry.

3. Into the list, enter the desired attribute values.

Element	Description
Index	Consecutive number of model segment
File3D	3D model file: Filename , .v3d, .3ds, .dwf or .skp, per default in directory ..\Exe\3DModels\ or a subdirectory of your Vissim installation. Click on the file name to show the path to the directory. As of Vissim 2021, Vissim has a modified directory structure under ..\Exe\3DModels\. As a result, 3D model files may be stored in different directories than in previous versions. If Vissim does not find a 3D model file under the path shown here, Vissim searches in the directory ..Exe\3DModels as well as in its subdirectories. If Vissim finds the file, the new path will be saved when you save the Vissim network.

2D/3D model	Assigned 2D/3D model from the 2D/3D Models coupled list on the left
PartWOutPassFront	Section without passengers (front):: The length measured from the front edge of the model segment where there are no passengers. This area is not accessible to disembarking pedestrians when they choose a door.
PartWOutPassRear	Section without passengers (rear):: The length measured from the rear edge of the model segment where there are no passengers. This area is not accessible to disembarking pedestrians when they choose a door.

4. On the list toolbar, in the Relations list, click the desired entry.
