Good morning,

 

I've always used iges files to work with hypermesh. Now  I'm finding problems in importing a parasolid file (a file with extension x_t).

How can I import the geometry, where's the problem?

    Hello Mario

     

    Well, it's HW9 version. I've tried the path you mentioned, but I could not open the file as well.

    The x_t file is 2,04Mb but when I try to import it using hypermesh it seems that it doesn't even exist. Should I use an editor program to modify it?

     

    Thank you for the answer

    Hello,

     

    HW9 is a really old version, maybe it doesn't support the newer parasolid formats.

    HW12 supports V25 native parasolid cad format. Try to check the supported version for HW9 (help file, cad reader support).
