Question

Old CoCreate Files

I have some old CoCreate files that I am looking to recover. They have no file extension. The file name will be two letters like ae or am and then numbers. I can load my older 2D files and republish them, but the 3D files are being difficult. I have used OneSpace Modeling 14, and CoCreate Modeling Personal Edition.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Any files created by Creo Elements/Direct, CoCreate Modeling, OneSpace Modeling or SolidDesigner will always have a file extention.

Is there a possiblility that these files were created with ME30?

Hi,

Richard is right. All the Modeling (SolidDesigner) files have an extension - providing the information what kind of information is contained in the file.

Once I saw that people named their Annotation files "am". May indicates an "Annotation Module" file - just a guess.

What is "Old" by the way? 0-10 years? 10-15 years or 15+ years?

Are you able to get something readable if you open them by Notepad ++?

May a screendump here is helpful to show us a content of such a file (first 10 lines ...)

It is possible that these are ME30 files, maybe even ME10. They are generally from the 1990's

Here is the first few lines:

In general, they look like simple text files with coordinates and other data.
