How to restore *.SMF file?
Z-Modeler's backup file. - Every time you save your 3D work in *.SMF (EVO1 or EVO2) format the Z-Modeler program always automatically create two sets of file:
- *.SMF extension file (your saved work file)
- *.BAK extension file (copies/backup of your saved work renamed extension as *.BAK instead of *.SMF)
So when you accidentally overwrite, crashed or corrupt your original *.SMF file, just go search another copy of your *.BAK file with the same filename and renamed the backup copies as *.SMF. The content of *.SMF is same as *.BAK.
For example:
- "Mytruck.BAK" ---renamed to--->> "MyTruck.SMF"
That's easy.
Good Luck!
