Is it possible to convert a Creo Assembly file into a file type usable for ROBOTC Virtual Worlds?

I'm trying to use the Creo Assembly of my teams FTC robot in ROBOTC Virtual Worlds but I can't seem to figure out how. Do any of you guys know of a way to do that?

 

Thanks

Virtual worlds use to use VRML language which is a faceted .WRL file. Not sure what you have for applications that use the files, but this is where I'd start.

The following link suggests that objects in the arena can be imported based on .stl file format. They mention SW and Inventor by name, but Creo can export .stl files as well.

I think RobotC VW is limited to pre-defined robots that ship with it. It's a huge undertaking to build a physics simulation module - essentially a dynamics analysis model with real-time feedback. It's even harder to make an interface that allows arbitrary models from an easy interface.
