Some plugins’ features are already available by certain versions of the software (for example, geometric tools are already implemented by Mold Pro). Here you are the full list of plugins:
| Name | Features | Available for Pro | Available for Dynamic | Price |
|---|
| Import/Export pack | LBNL Therm import, SketchUp Import/Export (on 3D version only) | X | X | €60 + tax |
| ISO 15099 | ISO 15099 cavities, ISO 15099 boundary conditions, ISO 15099 glazing systems | X | X | €60 + tax |
| PHI module | Passive House Institute - specific features | X | X | €60 + tax |
Create you own slide shows!
You will be able to create real slide shows of your projects: simple “record” some screenshots and Mold Simulator will automatically generate an animation. To distribute it, for example, to some clients, is immediate: you just have to make them open your projects, containing the presentation, with the “Viewer” version of the software. This version is completely free and time unlimited, but it can just view files and not modify them.
Fully customizable print report
Forget the old reports: now you can modify and customize reports as you wish. You’ll have an internal editor (similar to the ones you’re familiar with) to define every single detail you want to print. It is even possible to save reports i various file formats (also html, readable by any computer). You’ll be able to insert various kinds of labels, adding more information; it is a key point for a complete documentation.
Mold Simulator is distributed by Dartwin; please visit www.dartwin.it for more information.
