I can only apologise for the lack of development over the past few months. I'm so busy with work an personal issues at the moment that I just can't find time to do much coding. (and there's only me..)
I fully intend to do further development though.
No apology is necessary. Your generosity is very welcome and the tool as it stands is extremely useful. I for one will gratefully receive any further updates you may have time to make.
All the best,

I did not uninstall TL, I just deleted the old setup file and all of my trial designs. I suspected that the TL error message I received could have corrupted my design files. My plan was to start over as an educated user.
I currently cannot re-install. I continue to get that attached error message.
What files do I need to find and delete in order to perform a successful new setup? I do not use your "install", I just download the "setup" into a directory and then run using my VISTA64 .NET and Installer 4.5. This method worked for the initial install.
I tried to use your "install" which used your .NET and Installer, but just got the same error message again.
Thanks for the support.

Installer is a .NET Framework element and not something I have made and so I don't know what files would need to be deleted.
Can you not uninstall the program from the Add/Remove Programs part of the Control Panel?

Ok, first update for over 4 months is now available.
My publishing certificate ran out and so I have had to create a new one. This shouldn't cause too many problems but it may mean that it completely re-installs and thus you may lose some of your preferences. Please let me know if this is the case as I'm intrigued to know.
So the updates have fixed a few bugs some of you were having:
- Fixed a bug where the Driver Isobaric setting kept resetting to Series.
- Fixed a bug where minimising the main window would cause an error.
- Fixed a bug where drawing Terminus cursor lines when there is no Terminus would cause an error.
and finally I have added an option to reset View within the enclosure window. This is in the right-click menu.

Fixed my re-install problem. My antivirus software put your TL program into a safe sandbox because it was new and unverified. I had no problem installing 3.6.1.14.
Great, glad you could fix it.
I'll have to buy a licenced certificate at some point....
I use it on Windows XP, Vista and 8.
Might need a little bit more information than that. What is the error message? How far does it get?
Most common problems are with .NET version. Do you know what version you have?
I'm glad it's working for you. I said before that I used it on Windows 8, I actually meant Windows 7 but it's good that it works on 8 too!
Hello Schmeet, I have installed the software and am exploring the many functions. Though many have shared the ways of creating a model. kindly guide How I can Stimulate a MLTL with certain port size. And also how to offset the driver location say driver position 9" from Internal top.

Select object, right click and select Split Element. This point can now be moved where you need. Now right click on the last element in the chain that was created and select Add Branch. This element can now be defined as your port.
Can you do a sample diagram for me to understand.
i want to check the effect of driver when used in 7.5"W x 8"D x 38" H Enclosure. with port dimension of 7.2 cm x 4" length, and difference it would make by changing port length.
Also kindly verify the 1:10 tapered Tl enclosure I tried to Model.
Remove the txt tag from File name extension is tlp. I had to do this to get file attached.

I have looked at your TL model and it looks fine. You have modelled a 1:10 tapered TL enclosure. (Whether that is a good enclosure I haven't considered though).
So, the steps I took to get your 7.5"W x 8"D x 38" H Enclosure are as follows:
Click on the element and set the start area and end area to 60in² (7.5 x 8).
Set it's length to 38in.
Then click the boundary checkbox to make it a closed end. You now have a closed box.
We need to add a port so right click on whitespace and select "Add Rear Element".
This is your port. Make it 4in long and make the start/end areas 40.7cm² (assuming 7.2cm is the diameter?).
You then need to make sure that the end of teh port is open so check the Boundary Checkbox.

When adding stuffing to the simulation, lets say its set on medium. The element side bar shows it has a stuffing value of 1. What unit is that? Is that equivalent to one pound?
Yes, it would be interesting to know what the stuffing value actually means. It would also be very interesting to know what mathematical model you use to simulate the effect of stuffing.

Hi Bjorn, abc,
At present the stuffing just applies an empirically derived resistance into the model.
I have been trying to find something that is more based on physics but such models don't seem to exist.
So, the stuffing number doesn't have a unit it's just an arbitrary number. I added the Low,Medium and High values to give an idea of what kind of range you should be working with.
If you compare a model to measured or published data then the values are roughly about right.
In all honesty it doesn't really matter too much, because when you add stuffing, you add it by adding how much you need. You don't weigh out 3Kg of mineral and place it in the exact right position. You play with it until it's right.
This stuffing in the model should be used to give you an idea of how the response can be smoothed out with stuffing.
That said, I will still endeavour to implement a better model for stuffing if I come across one.

haha very true.
This is what I thought of whenever using the low medium and high:
Low:
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
High: (im sure you guys will recognize this picture)
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
and Medium just somewhere between there.
I wasn't sure if the number had an actual measurement though.
Thanks schmeet!
