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 PCs 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.

 

 

 

** Download software list UPDATED 22nd July 2009 **

Now available for Windows Vista

Downloadable options:

     

 

 

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.

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.

ej jonathan,

bloodranger_666@hotmail.com
thnx

Have replied by email... thanks for your message...

Happy New Year...

you 2 and thnx

ej jonathan.
i cant get it installed on my pc.
i open the maps in the zip file and it extracts also, but wen its ready to instal the whole file falls away and nothing happens.
please help!!!

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.

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.

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

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

hey bro let me know if u having hardtime to install program or u can email me in jezzy_boy2004@hotmail.com

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

good screen saver

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

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

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

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!

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

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

J

Is there a compatible screen saver for mac yet? it must be .saver

Thanks

I have updated my computer to the VISTA, then does not run this screensaver.

Hi Jonathan,

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

http://www.macktrucks.com/default.aspx?pageid=2128

Greetings

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

Can you make it for Win Vista also?

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

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

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.

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

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.

stefano-ca@hotmail.com

Hey mate. I've used the screensaver on my boss's pc at work, which is an XP. However, vista doesn't let the screensaver work, I've tried all of the link downloads, but none of them want to operate on vista. With the one saying it's for 98, ME and XP, it comes up with a blank, black screen. With both links that say it's for vista, come up with a blank white screen with the mouse pointer still visible (as has been previously mentioned by other people).
Can you let us all know when you have come to a solution?

Hi at all,

THX

do you now a solution for the vista problem already. i get a white screen. if you have a solution please email me at mvhagen1979@gmail.nl

thnxs

sorry i mean mvhagen1979@gmail.com

Hi there, i have encountered the same Vista issue, is there a solution? You're probably sick of being asked about it, sorry. ianboorer@hotmail.com or nav.vardholm@cggveritas.com and put ftao Ian, thanks.

Effectively , it doesn't work on Vista ... but for the ones who really want this screen saver working on their Vista OS ... and waiting Jonathan create a working installer , they can always download the movie from YouTube , then convert it in MPG file ... After just need to install "Perkins 3D diesel engine animation " ( which works on Vista ) , and copy the converted movie in the installed repertory of perkins ( c:\softddCV ), of course we need to give to it the name of perkins original file ( "perkins_1104D" ) and it will work fine ...

The only problem is that we lose probably on quality compare to the original screensaver, so if Jonathan could let us too simply download the movie at his highest resolution , it will be perfect ... but it's very a Great screensaver ...

cool

For all users of Windows XP:

If you are getting error " Trail User.........." & Can not see the screen saver then pls ensure that all 6 files from the 42 MB ZIP files are extracted to C:\WINDOWS\system32.

Then select the screensaver & it will work fine.

cool scr

Great screensaver, but same problem with vista... solution? hopefully soon, thanks.

It is fantanstic and really makes my PC very good

Hello Jonathan.
Recently I downloaded this screensaver, here, and set it but it's not working. I already did what Manish told to do, it's just not working. What should I do to have it working properly? I use a XP-os on my PC.

Hi Everton,

Not sure what more to suggest. Try installing it twice?  Move files and restart the computer. I've had no issues with the installer. Which version have you downloaded?

Best wishes

Jonathan

Is that the way it should be? I thought it´s for free but to give a donation?

Thanks

coollll

Jonathon,

I'ts a Ford Engine Ztec. but this apresentation have ONE, only one Error.

Many thanks to you Jonathan, Kindly upload the screensaver for windows 7 users. Thanks.

i already install it, but then it said interface not supported, how to solve it?? please, i need your answer....

i have downloaded yhe vista version & couldnt install it.but 3gp version looks good.
i tried to donate through paypal but it isnt accepting it.

hi friends i need a diesel engine demo jst like this if any 1 of you have that so plz send me ay Jayveeeee@gmail.com plz plz

Fantastic I wants to be install in my Laptop.

Great screensavers.. I had a problem during the installation in Vista. It said ''Can't Create a file with the name untitle in C://Windows folder'' . I Solved it.. If you have the same problem.. You just have to right click on the installation Icon and then click -run as administrator.. after it is installed you choose it from the screensaver menu. That's it! Thanks a lot!

Thanks Jonathon,

I don't know if your links work, I hope so. I have had this screensaver for several years on my work laptop. I travel EVERYWHERE...and everywhere I go, as soon as the screensaver kicks in, I'm sure to find someone mesmerized by it. I have freely passed it on (via thumbdrives) in the past, but recently, people have said that they could not install it. They may have been using Windows Vista... I am not sure. I use XP-Pro.

I am retired from Ford, worked in an engine plant for 30 years, and always felt that it resembled our Duratec I-4. Today, I ran into a man that worked at the Chihuahua MX engine plant that swore that it was the Chihuahua Duratec engine. I read some of the posts on this blog, and got curious...so I searched the internet, and of course I don't always believe everything I see on the internet...but.... check out this video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7MUL3vtZ5o
coincidence?? I have had other people that are familiar with Deutz that say they never built an engine like this. They are supposedly more into agricultural equipment and diesels.

I will pass along your weblink to some of the guys here in Chihuahua, MX. I will also make a paypal donation when I get back to the states. Everytime I am out of the country, Paypal freezes my account when I try to use it.

Thanks again,
Jon Dearbaugh

HELLO FRIEND THIS SCREEN SEVERE ARE ITS VERY GOOD

Does it work on win 7?

Hi Jon, excellent screen saver. We had this at work, the largest powder metal auto parts manufacturer in the world, and we completely enjoyed this screen saver. I have an LG R710 note book with Vista Business, 320 h.d , 4 gig ram and dual core processor. I have tried too many times to down load this saver only to have it fail each and every time. I took it to a computer tech who is a master at his trade and I trust however, he could not get it to work for Vista either...although, he was simply amazed at how an internal combustion engine really works. I laughed as I have been heavily involved in the r & d of off road race/Marine engines for the past 40+ years. You know what they say..." a picture is worth a thousand words". 

Thanks for a great educational tool as well as entertaining my computer buddy! Once you get the Vista issues sorted out, I would love to down load the screen saver...and make a donation to your cause.

cheers,

Mike

I have been searching for this screen saver for many years after i lost my pendrive and i can say i am the happiest man to have it................I want to get more of this and here is my email address if you can get me another one stonegee@usa.com
 

I've been looking for this on our internal network (I have it somewhere). Been wanting to put this on the new site I'm developing for DEUTZ UK - http://www.deutzuk.co.uk
