Question

Is there an export format that will maintain Creo/Elements Pro lighting and scene information within a free viewer tool.

Greetings all,

I would like to find a 3D export format that will maintain the light and scene information from Creo/Elements Pro when opened in a free viewer tool such as Creo View Express or Adobe Acrobat 9.

I have tried .U3D files which apperently should contain the lighting and scene information but Ive been unable to find a free program to open the file.

Does anyone have any ideas of a format that will do this and a free viewing tool to open the format?

Any information will help. Thanks!

    Sam,

    The ability to export lighting information in JT files was added in Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 M080 and Creo 1.0 F000. JT files can be veiwed with JT2Go which is a free viewer.

    And it can be found here (or on "JT2Go" Siemens page): JT2Go 8.3.2.

    So, links, and, also, the program "Deep View" (it's a free viewer for "U3D" file format) were updated, now it is called as "SAP Visual Enterprise Viewer" (in two variants: "Minimum" and "Complete"):
