Hi SK,

Most likely you do not need this answer anymore but for those that are still struggling like I did, the " install_addon.m" is in the same place as the "smlink,r20**a/b.win64.zip" files. The bit might be either 32 or 64 depending on your system.

Grab both files you will need them.

The file that most of us are missing is the second file.

I hope this will help somone out there.

Cheers

You were following the steps on the page https://www.mathworks.com/help/physmod/smlink/ug/installing-and-linking-simmechanics-link-software.html ?

Do you have 2022a version?

It should be on the same page that you got the platform-specific smlink file.

Hi, this is the file of the function that you are looking for.

I downloaded it with the r2018b version.

Best regards!

I’m sorry I didn’t know it. I just downloaded it from the Mathworks web page and posted here. Do you want me to delete it?

[Walter Roberson]

I already zapped it.
