Unable to read selected axm file

Anonymous — Thu, 14 Dec 2017 09:24:42 GMT

Hello,

I am working on a Formit file for a several days now. Today when I tried to open it a message of corruption appeared. Is there any backup file saved by default anywhere? Or is there any way to repair it? I would appreciate your help.

Find the file here https://ufile.io/84ata

Thanks

Wow, 400 MB. That is pretty large for a FormIt file. I assume most of that was from imported data. Where was it coming from SKP, RVT, elsewhere? FormIt itself does not have an automatic backup. However, if you save to A360, instead of your local drive, there is a version history. Click on the AXM file in the FormIt folder in A360 and the version picker is next to the file name in upper left. I hope this helps.

Many thanks for the fast reply.

I conclude that the size of this file is due to the textures I loaded. Every form was created in Formit. I was working the file only locally so there is not any previous version on 360. Is there any possibility that Formit team would fix the file? It is really important for the process of the project I am working on .

Thank you in advance.

Hi there

I tried your solution but it still doesen't work. I cannot recover the file although the axm file is on A360

is there anything else that can be done?

I've been working on this model for many days and it would be very sad if I cant use it now...

thank you!
