maya binary files conversion

[Anonymous]

I have some Maya binary files in my unity project and those files are not opening because they are originally made in Maya 2012 and I can't find Maya 2012 anymore. Will you please give me the appropriate link for downloading Maya 2012 64 bit?

Hi @Anonymous 

See if the download link here works for the 2012 version: https://autode.sk/2NH9tLG

We typically only provide downloads for the past 3 years versions so let me know if you're still able to access 2012. Thanks!

After downloading the files from the above link, I'm unable to find the Maya launching application. Will you please help me out with that?

If you were able to download it then it should just go to your 'downloaded' files folder on your laptop (listed as autodesk_maya_2012_english_documentation). I'm testing it out now and a pop up window should direct you further on where you want to place it. 🙂

Yes I have done all those steps. After that I'm having maya 2012 folder in
program files having scripts and many other folders in it but I'm unable to
find out that how I can launch maya 2012?

Hmmm, you may need to check directly with our installation experts if you are not seeing the actual product launch logo to start it!

Hi!

@Anonymous  and @diana.yr 

This is only the link to the offline help files / documentation for Maya 2012.

I doubt you will be able to get the Installer files for Maya 2012 from Autodesk.

Even you could get them, where do you want to install this old application?

I'm working on a game just like temple run. It has maya binary files which
are made in maya 2012 and there is no other way to open those files except
of maya 2012 installation

Hi!

Could you post one of these files?

Keep in mind that Maya 2012 is only supported on Windows 7 and older.

[Anonymous]

Yes I know that and I'm installing Maya on Windows 7. Some files are
attached for your reference. Your cooperation is much appreciated

Here you go

Hi!

Both files open fine here with Maya 2019.2 .

Please try Import... instead of Open Scene...

If the files can't be opened on your system this is very likely a problem related to history and your system, so also

using an older Maya version is unlikely to help in this case.

Its still not opening on my system and giving me error message. I have
tried on 2 other systems but still same issue
