  Hello,
  
  Can you please elaborate more on the issue or the error you are encountering?
  Also, make sure you enter correct start and end frame (which is 0 in the attached image). Also check if the files (.hsf and .cxa) saved are for the selected animation sequence.

  Hi once the simulation has done, I tried to play the animation but as you can see I cant change anything on the setting window. It seems like there's no data to play but I do see the files in the folder (yes, its the correct files..)

  Hello,
  
  Can you share these two things:
  1: Screenshot of the 'Animation Definition' window. Make sure you keep the required one selected.
  2: Screenshot of .cxa file (First few lines would do).

  probably the file (*cxa) was corrupted. Anyway: you are now over it!.
