Deutz Engine Screensaver - download animated construction of a motor engine

Our Scout unit are working towards their Mechanics badge. One of the parents, Mike, works at Ford Motor Company and brought this rather cool screensaver along yesterday evening. The screensaver takes the viewer through the various parts of a motor engine as you watch it being constructed in front of you.

Sadly, the screensaver is for Windows PC's only... Watch the Flash animation and download the Deutz Engine screensaver.

I wonder if there is a tool to construct Screensavers for Mac OS X from Flash movies?

You can now download the excellent screensaver from this site.

Please keep this service running.

Due to the enormous interest in downloading this screensaver from this site and the large amount of traffic coming to my server host, I would really appreciate a donation towards the hosting costs of this service. Many thanks for your understanding.

Please support this screensaver development.

 

 

** UPDATE 31st October 2007 **

 

There is another animated construction of an engine, this time a diesel engine made by Perkins which can be downloaded from this website. Download the Perkins 3D diesel engine animation.

I've seen this on my brother's computer, he tried to send it to me but the end bit when the engine starts running wouldn't work. My son George aged 11 is fascinated by it. Can you send it to me please.
Cheers Helen.

Jonathan

Hello Helen,

I have uploaded the Flash movie to this site, you can find it here...

Hope George enjoys watching the movie. Wishing you both a very Happy Christmas.

please help!!!

joey

ej,
i got it on my pc now but it doesnt stay as screensaver.
when i install it as screensaver and go back there after i shotted it down it says none in staid of deutz engine.
how can i get deutz engine screensaver to stay there and not be erased by himself or my pc or what cause.

Jonathan

Hi Joey,

I'm surprised that you are having difficulties with Windows saving your screensaver choices. Can I suggest a few things to try:

1. Try choosing a screensaver other than the Deutz one. See if Windows saves your choice of screensaver after a restart.

2. Try choosing the Deutz one and click 'Apply' before clicking on 'OK'

After a restart, is Deutz screensaver still available in the list of choices for screensavers, or do you need to install it again?

Sorry I can't help more.

Tyler

Hi, i have the screensaver downloaded, and I can veiw it by playing it. But how do i get it so i can actually set it as a screen saver?
Thanks, Tyler

JOHN WILLS

HI, IF YOU EXTRACT THE FILES TO C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32 YOU CAN SET IT UP JUST LIKE ANY OTHER SCREENSAVER IN YOUR DISPLAY PROPERTIES

Jonathan

Tyler,

Welcome.

Once you have downloaded the screensaver for Windows, clicking the .exe file will install the software onto your computer. Following this process should place the screensaver in the list of available screensavers which are available from the Displays Control Panel.

Hope this helps.

Jonathan

hany

good screen saver

mayur shende

this thing is so nice and unbelivable
do have the speciffications of the engine? Liters, HP
good luck

Ash

Hello Jonathan...
I am having trouble downloading the 'deutz screen-saver' for Windows PC (43Meg) file, can you please email me a save-able copy...most grateful mate..
I hope this will run in Windows after selecting it from display properties for my desktop screensaver.
Thanks
Ashley
Here is my email..
rx8@msn.com

Ash

Jonathan,
I tried again and managed to download the Windows file 42.3meg from your link above, so please cancel my request.
However, this appears to be a TRIAL version, as I tried to reinstall to another directory and a purchase of the software is required to view screensaver.
Anything I can do, I presume you can not save this screensaver for prosperity.
Ash

muy wapo este video

Sharpmiester

Jonathan IT advice is alittle flawed. the .exe file generally does not install the screensaver, it just takes you to the screensaver control panel. To get it to work save all files whereever your current .scr files live (windows XP for example is c:\windows directory) then when you select and run from your screensaver list you don't get the message EVERYONE is asking about.. about rebuilding your screensaver!

Jonathan

Great, thanks again. Happy that people can suggest better advice.

I'll take your instructions and include them within an installation guide, shortly.

I've dowloaded the exe. I had that screensaver on my previous pc, but now I have a new notebook with Vista, and the Deutz Engine doesn't work with this O.S. John, please give me some information about! What I have to do to solve this big problem?
Please send me a mail to djpirillo1@tin.it!

Thanks for keeping this file uploaded. I found a similiar animation at

Respected sir,

I want a 12 piston demo working engine, if its possible, so please send me on my mail which is {bhupinder_yahoo.co.in} keep continuing with others screen savers
I shall be gratefull to you

Jonni

Can you make it for Win Vista also?

Alex

hey, i'm still having problems with the DOHC Engine assembly screensaver. The vista update doesn't work, it just brings up a blank screen.

Any suggestions? Cheers

Jonathan

hmmm, I think I need to do some more testing, sigh.

Sorry guys, I'll take a look at this over the weekend. I suspect this is a problem with the codec used to compress the video embedded within the screensaver. I used AVI format files because I thought they were the most compatible. I'll re-compress the media and upload the screensaver again.

thanks Alex for your feedback.

Jonathan

Thanks again, Daniel

I am having the same Windows Vista Problem that everyone else is. Extracting the compressed file results in a blank screen. I am a mechanical engineer with 5 years as a certified technician. This would prove helpful for demonstrations. I'm about as impressed with Vista as you are. Please repond if a solution is discovered. APPRECIATAED

Just a warning:

People, don't download the normal Windows version - it just will not work! Have not tested Vista yet?

Jonathan

Hello,

sorry... I'm unable to do very much to solve this issue as I'm lacking access to Windows Vista. I will try to get hold of a copy or use a computer with Vista installed over the next week or so.

Apologies for taking so long...

I downloaded the screensaver but I only get the message on the screen that I'm a trial user and rebuilding the screensaver after purchasing it, would make it work ok.

So I donated some money but what is the procedure for rebuilding it?

Victor

Hi Jonathan

Thanks for the great work! I've downloaded the Deutz Engine screensaver for Vista, but when I open the extracted application, a white screen appears and thats about it. I can right-click and apparently change some settings, but the screensaver never seems to install or activate, regardless of what settings I choose. Could you please offer some advice?

Regards

hi jon,i love this screensaver

Mark

Great site by the way.

I have been looking for this screensaver for awile now and have the same problem with all of the other guys with Vista, just wondering if there is a solution yet. i am sure a lot of people would be happy if there was.

I also would like to know if there is an animation screensaver of a jet engine?

Keep up the great work.

Mark

Hi Jonathan,

the screensaver is not from a Deutz Engine, this screensaver is from a Ford Duratec engine. This engine is also tuned bij Cosworth
