Installing VI-Suite on Windows 11

[武政孝治]

Hi.

We are installing VI-Suite on Windows 11 as the deadline for the Architectural Institute of Japan convention is approaching.If anyone is using VI-Suite on Windows 11, please let us know the environment you are using.I installed Blender 4.2.7 LTS and master.zip.Next, I ran the Docker Desktop Installer.exe I installed the openFOAM11 image using WSL.

The following is the state.I am not knowledgeable about Docker, so I am leaving it in this state.If any configuration is needed, please let me know.Please do.

(P.S.)

I still have not completed the installation of VI-Suite 0.7 on ArchLinux.I have reviewed and noticed a few things, which I will note below.The following is what was noted in the documentation

0 Run pikaur -S openfoam-org to install openfoam-12 under /opt.

I downloaded openfoam-11 via git, created a binary, copied it under /opt and ran chmod 755.I still get a message that matplotlib is not installed, so I am going to take some time to resolve this in the future.

Regards.

Hi.

I made a commit to master today that updates the required OpenFOAM version to 12. The post below details some of the changes, and has a video that shows you how to install the correct version in Docker Desktop. If you are using a version of the VI-Suite from before today you need to do the same thing but download tag 11 instead of tag 12.

Cheers
