Show me!
Because FracSIS is so graphically intense, we figured you'd like to see how to do things, as well as read about them.
Your time is precious, so all our demo/tutorial movies are short. Feel free to watch and listen to them online (select the Flash option), or download them to view later.
FracSIS movies
If you want to learn more about specific areas of our FracSIS software, these mini-movie tutorials could be just what you're after. All movies are 800Wx600H pixels and each has narration, so make sure you plug in your headphones or speakers, and check that the sound is turned on.
Each movie is available as a:
- ZIP file containing an EXE file (for downloading to your computer and running from there; note: the EXE file does not install anything onto your computer)
OR - Flash file (for viewing over the internet through your web browser)
