We present a new event generator based on the three-fluid hydrodynamics\napproach for the early stage of the collision, followed by a particlization at\nthe hydrodynamic decoupling surface to join to a microscopic transport model,\nUrQMD, to account for hadronic final state interactions. We present first\nresults for nuclear collisions of the FAIR/NICA energy scan program (Au+Au\ncollisions, $\\sqrt{s_{NN}}=4-11$ GeV). We address the directed flow of protons\nand pions as well as the proton rapidity distribution for two model EoS, one\nwith a first order phase transition the other with a crossover type softening\nat high densities. The new simulation program has the unique feature that it\ncan describe a hadron-to-quark matter transition which proceeds in the baryon\nstopping regime that is not accessible to previous simulation programs designed\nfor higher energies.\n
