 The following example creates the force platform parameters for a C3D file that contains the ANALOG signals from the force platform but does not contain any parameters.
-  - Download and open the [[https://www.has-motion.com/download/examples/walkNoFpParameters.c3d|example c3d file]]. \\ \\ {{:Amti1.png}} \\ \\
+  - Download the ZIP file provided above and open **Tutorial5_ForcePlatforms_Start.cmz**. \\ \\ {{:Amti1.png}} \\ \\
   - Select Modify Force Platform Parameters from under the Force Menu. The following dialog will appear \\ \\ {{:Amti2.png}}\\ \\
   - Select the Get Current C3D Parameters. There should be no change to the dialog because there aren't any parameters in the file. You can check this by looking in the Parameters section of the Data Tree; there should be only one parameter used, which is equal to zero indicating no force platforms. \\ \\ {{:Amti3.png}} \\ \\

   - The channel numbers should correspond with the force platform signals. Visual3D stores the ANALOG signals alphabetically in the data tree, which is not necessarily consistent with the C3D file order. To see the C3D order you must look in the ANALOG parameters. \\ \\ {{:Amti5.gif}} \\ \\
   - The force platform corners are the locations of the corners of the force platform in the laboratory coordinate system.
-  - Download a [[https://www.has-motion.com/download/examples/modifyForcePlatforms.v3s|pipeline script]] to modify the force platform parameters for the example file.
+  - Make sure that the **Modify_Force_Platform_Parameter.v3s** pipeline script is within the ZIP file, this will be used to modify the force platform parameters for the example file.

 **Troubleshooting Tip:** If the ANALOG signals for the force platform exist, but the FORCE signal is zero, examine the FZ1 graph and verify that the Fz Channel of the ANALOG signals is negative. If not, then the ANALOG scale factor in the C3D file has probably been stored incorrectly by the motion capture software. The scale factor will need to be changed in the motion capture software and/or the file.
