Human Modeler in NX 2.0.4

[Wittenborn]

Greetings!

I am looking through the "What's new guide in NX 2.0.4" and noticed that the recent release has incorporated a "Human Modeler".

Supposedly, the tool is located under:

Modeling-> Tools-> Human Modeling-> Create Human

However, I do not see this tool in my pull-down menu. Does anyone else?

Is this an "add-on" feature for UG that we must buy, or is this a feature that we must activate in a file somewhere?

Thanks Ben,

Have you used this module? We have needed this capability for quite a while, but want something that is halfway realistic.

So if the module spits out a half-way attractive human, it may be worth the money.

I believe this is what you're both referring to:

It's called Jack & your UGS Sales Rep. can give you more detailed information on cost, etc. unless Ben has some experience with it.

No experience with it. I have heard that the NX version is actually a scaled down version of the full Jack program.
We have a simple 95% man that we use for layout positioning.

Grant,

I asked GTAC the same question and got this reply:

The release notes are wrong this functionality is not due until version 3.0.1 or possibly 2.0.5.2 if they get it ready in time!

Thanks Simon!

Did they give any indication whether this would be an included feature in NX or will this functionality be an add-on as Ben is indicating?
