Re: Assembly 2 workbench for FreeCAD v0.15
It should work the same with FreeCAD 0.16. As for FreeCAD 0.17 nothing was merged yet into master that could brake support. But i guess that could happen in the future.
Re: Assembly 2 workbench for FreeCAD v0.15
Hi, please update the title and the first post, you should at least mention that this workbench works for FreeCAD v 0.16 release.
It does not works under my system:
OS: Windows XP
Word size of OS: 32-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 32-bit
Version: 0.16.6698 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: master
Hash: ca7c5d31a4d61f32a25b71025b14641a6e378328
Python version: 2.7.8
Qt version: 4.8.6
Coin version: 4.0.0a
OCC version: 6.8.0.oce-0.17
And with the latest Assembly 2 from github.
When I copied the folder to the Mod folder, and after start the freecad, I don't see the "Assembly 2" workbench in the workbench list.
EDIT: This is the log I get, I have both Animation workbench and Assembly2 workbench installed.

EDIT2: by using the method mentioned here: Re: (Solved)Assembly2 in Version: 0.16.5602 (Git), it works now.During initialization the error DLL load failed: This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. occurred in D:\software\sci\freecad\FreeCAD_0.16.6698.ca7c5d3-Win-x32\FreeCAD_0.16.6698_x86_dev_win\Mod\assembly2\InitGui.py

Unfortunately the author of the topic and workbench has not been on the forum since last January.

That matter has me worried. The last commit to the GitHub repo is one year old.NormandC wrote:Unfortunately the author of the topic and workbench has not been on the forum since last January.
Is anyone interested in further development of this workbench? Because us folks at Makespace Madrid would like to use this to make big projects.
I'm using it for every multipart repo, and for that matter I want to contribute but, there's no repo to Pull Request to!
I doubt the author would come back to accept it. And that's sad.
I consider this a feature that FreeCAD must have. how far does this project need to go for it to be included by default?

Of course assembly2 is only for "small" projects and it would be nice to hear a signal whether assembly will continue.

Just fork it, that is the real power of git.elgambitero wrote:and for that matter I want to contribute but, there's no repo to Pull Request to!

It never will be included. It is a highly appreciated workbench for sure and does assemblies very well in a time where freecad does not support this in any way. However, as FreeCAD does not really support assembly stuff at all right now the workbench is a hack in many regards. We are on the route to change that, but this means a revised object structure in FreeCAD and than an deeply integrated own assembly workbench.

Re: Assembly 2 workbench for FreeCAD v0.15
Assembly2 module has issues (as Freecad has), but it's possible to do complex assemblies including dozens of parts; In order to enlighten the solver, I create as many sub-assemblies as I canmicroelly2 wrote:Of course assembly2 is only for "small" projects and it would be nice to hear a signal whether assembly will continue.
