What is the version of your gidpost library? The current one is the 2.9: https://www.gidsimulation.com/downloads/gidpost-2-9-library-to-write-postprocess-results-for-gid-in-ascii-binary-or-hdf5-format/ And the zip include gidpost.lib already precompiled for Windows with VS2022 (and for Linux) and al...

1) It is explained in more detail in the online current documentation (for the last developer version): https://gidsimulation.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GCM/pages/2695954437/proc you can show the values of the arguments with W to understand it better In the proc Cmas2d::EditDatabaseListDirect (file <...

your .msh files are wrong e.g. fem.msh declare a mesh of tetrahedra of 4 nodes, but the list of connectivies have 10 node ids really they are quadratic tetrahedra of 10 nodes, must replace the 4 by 10 MESH dimension 3 ElemType Tetrahedra Nnode 4 Coordinates 1 5.041270256042e+01 7.250010013580e+01 5....

If do you have a CAD model of your shape, created with NURBS then can divide it in parametric directions u or v with Geometry->Edit->Divide->Surfaces (num divisions, or near point or parameter) -num divisions simply divide in n parts in space parametre -near point will calculate the u,v parameters f...

Instead the original surface you can create another modified geometry creating the points at these forced node locations, connect them with lines and surfaces. or alternatively can create the points and force to be on the mesh of the original surface with Mesh->Mesh criteria->Force points to->Surfac...

Probably the results of the mesh files of post are bad.
Attach a zip file with the model to try it

1- you are wrong. In a semi-structured volume you can concentrate mesh sizes in the surface normal to the extrusion direction, but off course must do the same concentration in both linked tops. e.g. I have assigned a number of divisions=8 to the lines of the holes of the tops (can also assign a mesh...

I don't know what do you mean by "I can't mesh it properly around the opening" How is the mesh that do you want? You can generate a mesh of your model: - unstructured (tetrahedra only) - semi-structured in Y-direction for the 3 volumes - semi-structured the central volume and fully structu...

This task to convert results if required to GiD results format (or some format imported by GiD) was done by the 'GiD-OpenSees' problemtype developer. As 'final user' simply must calculate (menu Calculate->Calculate) and if successful the results file are created and can see the results in postproces...

To view in postprocess the results, these results must exists (<modelname>.post.res, ...) , calculated by the problemtype solver. Probably the solver is not able to do the calculation because some problem with boundary conditions, mesh, ... and probably is writing some error message. (try in pre the...
