December 16th, 2009· New, redesigned CompuCell Player featuring steering capabilities, ability to
· replay previously saved simulation results, better graphics rendering using VTK
· and many other improvements. Introduced ability to add new types of user-
· defined and user-controlled fields which can be rendered in the new player.
· For MacOS we distribute small, but useful application written by David Larson
· that allows users to pixelize experimental pictures and convert them into PIF
· initialization files. Users simply "paint" the experimental image and assign cell
· types to the painted regions.
· Added experimental , external modules that solve subcellular networks models
· written in SBML. This feature is still in the beta version but seems to integrate
· with CC3D very well. We will update users on our progress in this respect.
· Ability to run simulations in a silent mode (not using Player). The results are
· stored in the VTK format and can be post-processed using either CompuCell
· Player or custom written scripts.
· Renamed Plasticity to Elasticity. All simulations written for CC3D version
· previous to current and using Plasticity plugins should be updated and change
· word "Plasticity" to "Elasticity". This naming convention corresponds better to
· what these plugins implement.
· Restructured source code directory structure
· New reaction-diffusion solver which allows users to specify custom terms and
· does not require recompilation
· Updated functionality for Elasticity plugins, ContactLocalProduct plugin,
· Numerous bug fixes
