general info
SoLID detector simulation is based on Geant4 based simulation framework GEMC http://gemc.jlab.org
"solid_gemc" under SoLID repository https://jlabsvn.jlab.org/svnroot/solid/solid_gemc2 has files for SoLID detector configuration, field, scripts etc.
You need both GEMC and solid_gemc to do SoLID detector simulation, refer to the installation section
quick start
If you have any problem, remove or disable your auto env setup script like .csh and .login to and login a fresh terminal to try
The example below demonstrates how the simulation program work at various environment setting.
on ifarm with official installation of framework and SoLID repository (demonstration)
The fastest way to see what the simulation look like. You don't need to install any thing, but you can't modify anything either.

on ifarm with official installation of framework and your SoLID repository (recommended)
You don't need to install the framework, you can modify simulation configuration. This is the best way to run simulation on ifarm and farm nodes. This is recommend way to compare result and produce results.

on any machine with your installation of framework and your SoLID repository
This gives you maximum freedom to use any version of framework and ability to work on your local machine, And allow you to modify anything. This is the way to run on your local machine.
install the framework by following installation instruction cd your_choice_of_solid_repo_path svn co https://jlabsvn.jlab.org/svnroot/solid cd solid edit file set_solid by following the instruction within source set_solid cd $SoLID_GEMC/script gemc solid_CLEO_PVDIS.gcard or gemc solid_CLEO_PVDIS_simple.gcard gemc solid_CLEO_SIDIS_He3.gcard or gemc solid_CLEO_SIDIS_He3_simple.gcard You should see SoLID detector in graphic mode, click "Beam On" button to see beams
