Does someone have a copy of Catia running right now at this moment? I need to run a test and see if a file is corrupt...

hundreds of thousands of people use it every single day

including me :(

hotballs, try running CATDUA. it's a self-fix and diagnostic tool for CATIA parts/assemblies

load the part/assembly
file > desk
right click the part name and select CATDUA
select the "check" radio button and click 'run'

see if any errors are found.

if you want to try to let CATDUA clean the file, make sure you back it up first.

Thanks, I don't have a copy or license of Catia, nor have I really used it before. Is CATDUA part of Catia or is it a free program? I work at a company that does 3D visualization where we convert a bunch of file formats to our native binary format. We don't have a license of Catia and the client (MV augusta) is off on some Italian nap for the last 3 weeks. I couldn't get this bitch ass top assembly to convert, but it looks like we've found a work around for now.

And yes Catia is very wildly used among many automotive and motorcycle companies.

Now if I could get this thing to load I could see what the 2010 MV F4 1000 looks like. :twisted:

Thanks for the reply I'll let you know if we get desperate again and have to source an e30 forum for answers. ;)

CATDUA is a subprogram of CATIA so you can't run it w/o a license. Sorry I can't clean or fix the file for you, since I use CATIA at work I can't download anything of the sort.
