1.maybe old version of tutorials(V3) be easier for new user to understand.

2.just try to mesh simple model, like square problem, by star-cd built-in model. i think there is some simple tutorials to start.

3.star-cd is really not user friendly. but i have used it over 12 years.

Hi,
Thank you very much for your reply.But I found it very difficult even to follow the in-built tutorials.They dont have basics like where to start.I could not even find where the example files are..Can you help me out by sending me a few previous version's tutorials.

Once again Thank you very much...
