Some control procedures expect the supply file to be saved in the same directory that contains the *.inpx file. If a control file is saved to a directory that does not meet the requirements of the control procedure, this can cause the program to crash. The supply files of the control procedures Fixed time/Vissig, VAP and RBC can be saved to any directory Vissim can access. Vissim does not need the supply files to be saved to a specific directory. Should you have any questions regarding supply files, please contact the company that developed the control procedure.

You are provided with the asc3gui.dll files and the asc3.dll program file for your 64-bit Vissim version licensed.

Note: Current versions of ASC/3 use the asc3gui.dll file. In old projects, replace the old file name asc3_gui.dll by the new file name asc3gui.dll.

The control procedure additionally uses the following files:
