In this paper, we describe a visualisation system which helps simulation experts transform discrete simulation models and results into animated scenes in a virtual environment. The system aims to significantly reduce production costs and error sources during the generation process of visualisations. The means to achieve these goals are the development of a framework for the translation of simulation results into animations, reuse of animation elements, and the implementation of customization tools for animation elements and their behaviour. By utilizing advanced visualisation techniques, the system is also capable of directing the focus of the observer to interesting events, objects and timeframes.
