Please ensure your HEC-ResSim model can compute from stand alone program.

The ResSim 3.5 User's Manual is still in development.

Spaces in Alternative Names

Although ResSim allows the use of spaces in alternative names, they are not recommended, especially if you are going to use those alternatives in CWMS or HEC-WAT.  The ResSim plugin for CWMS and WAT use a special ResSim feature called variants (separate copies of the time series mapping (.fits) file of an alternative) to allow an alternative to be use effectively in multiple contexts (stand-alone, in a CWMS forecast run, or in a WAT simulation).  However, if in CWMS or WAT, you create more than one program order and use a given ResSim alternative with a space in its name in different runs set up with different program orders, that alternative may not use the correct variant (.fits) file at compute time.

Daily Time Step

Alternatives that use a 1Day compute interval are not displaying the results for the last time-step of the time window correctly in the ResSim's default plots in in the tabulated data in the OSI.   Viewing the data through DSSVue or CWMSVue will display the last time-step.  We found the source of the problem after CWMS 3.2.1 was packaged up and released.  Please contact HEC if you need the updated ResSim 3.5 that has a fix for this issue.
