Hello,
Do you know if the installation of cfdOF is possible with bluecfd core 2020-1 ?
If no, is it planned to do it?
Best regards
Julien

Re: Installation with bluecfd core 2020-1
Our IT guys installed bluecfd 2020-1. Tutorials are running fine from console.
But: they didnt install the complete package, paraview is missing. I cant install it by myself
because I need admin-rights. Next week I have a meeting in our company, where I present some
Freecad stuff with FEM/CFD. With my running "old" configuration.
Soo...no experiments at this point.
BTW:
The new FC dev-snapshot FreeCAD_0.20.25065_Win-LPv12.5.4_vc17.x-x86-64.7z
gives missing dependencies for hisa/cfmesh. Thats why I use FreeCAD_0.19.24267_Win-LPv12.1.6_vc14.x-x86-64
You should check this first with your existing bluecfd 2017 installation.
I will have a further look at bluecfd 2020-1 next weekend. I am drowning in work...
Have a nice weekend.

Installed HiSA 1.4.5, works with bluecfd 2020 and OF-8.

Re: Installation with bluecfd core 2020-1
I had a thing whereas I didn't notice that there BOTH file selectors for the .exe, below--AND--folder choosers above. For some reason, I had not noticed the file choosers above. Well, as long as BlueCFD seems to be found.
Anyway, thank you for working on FreeCad. : )
Noting: OpenFoam org seems hesitant to support OpenFoam native on Windows. BlueCFD, because it's not virtualized whether through Windows services or Docker has better performance and security than the alternatives. I strongly believe that native OpenFoam is better for at least the Windows community, as such.
