Hi There

I’ve recently been experimenting with PrePoMax and I was trying out FEAnalyst’s tutorial 16 ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0Fass1\_iuo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0Fass1_iuo)) However I couldn’t get it to work in v1.4.1 in the end I changed back to v1.4 and started again and found the tutorial worked fine there.

I then took my good 1.4 model and opened it in 1.4.1 to see if it would work, unfortunately it gives the this error:

\*ERROR reading \*CLOAD: node 18305  
is not defined  
\*ERROR reading \*CLOAD: node 18307  
is not defined  
\*ERROR in calinput: at least one fatal  
error message while reading the  
input deck: CalculiX stops.

Job failed - no results exist.

To investigate further I performed a diff on the .inp file generated by 1.4 and the .inp file generated by 1.4.1 and you can see that the nodes have corrupt data in them.

I haven’t done much more digging but this seems to be related only to rigid body constraints.

Thanks for the bug report. I have fixed it and updated the developer 1.4.1 version. Please give it a try and confirm it is working now.
