Abstract
Up to now, most of the simulation work for the KM3NeT neutrino telescope has been performed using software tools adapted from the ANTARES project, which have originally neither been set up for a km 3-scale detector nor for long-term maintenance on a modern computer system. New Monte-Carlo tools, including a Geant4-based muon propagator, a photon propagation tool including a full light scattering simulation and a new optical module acceptance and readout simulator have been developed and implemented in a simulation chain using a modular software framework. An overview of the new software tools and simulation results for a possible detector configuration will be presented.
