When you create a new model (named, say, "AntFarm") Ventity creates the following files and folders:
AntFarm\ |
Folder containing all model files |
AntFarm.vmdl |
Main model document |
Data\ |
Subfolder for time series and initialization data |
DataSourceMappings\ |
Subfolder for data maps |
EntityTypes\ |
Subfolder for entity type definitions |
AntFarm.vent |
Definition file for the default entity type |
Model.vent |
Definition file for the model entity type |
Results\ |
Subfolder for saved simulation output (runs). Initially empty. |
StyleSheets\ |
Subfolder for Model Styles library |
A Ventity model consists of a .vmdl file, in the same directory as an EntityTypes folder, a StaticEntities folder, a StyleSheets folder, and their contents. To run, all these elements must be present. All Ventity files are in text or XML format so projects can be managed in version control systems.
Sample models are usually installed in your Documents (or My Documents) folder under Ventity Projects\Sample Projects.
Read-only backups of the sample models are installed in C:\Users\Public\Documents\Ventity Projects\Sample Projects.
