Here is described which files format is possible to open directly or not directly in LumenRT and in which way

Steps to Accomplish

Option 1

1. If you have a *.dgn file, you can open it by all based Microstation software (e.g. Descartes, InRoads, AECOsim...)

2. Then you have to set a camera view and click to LumenRT Export option (2 options are available and they work in the same way):

3. The LumenRT software opens proptly after the export

Option 2 

1. If you have a *.lrt file, this is the property file format for LumenRT, you can open LumenRT using the following ways:

• double click the file,

• right click and choose: open with LumenRT

• drag and drop the *.lrt file on LumenRT icon on your desktop  

Option 3

1. If you have a *.bak file, the backup file associated with livecubes once exported, you can access LumenRT in the following way:

• Rename the *.bak file so that the file has the same name, but change the extension to *.lrt. Example: 'Lumen_Test.bak' becomes 'Lumen_Test.lrt'.

• This makes it possible to create a livecube from a backup of the original exported livecube, in the case of corruption. Open the newly named LiveCube following the instructions in Option 2.
