File Format Inquiry

Unread postby GT46PAC » Tue Jul 31, 2018 1:52 am

Hi,
Whenever I export anything from BlueprintEditor I always see two additional formats other than the regular one which are
.GeoPcDx.cost.tgt,
.GeoPcDx.cost,
.GeoPcDx.tgt.
and many more with same extensions.
What are these file formats for as I do not see them inside .ap files.
Thanks

The .tgt files are used by the Blueprint Editor to keep track of what's already been built and exported and when it was done, so that when you do an Export on a model, it doesn't waste time re-exporting anything that hasn't been changed since the last time it was exported. If you delete all the .tgt files, the next time you do Export it will re-build everything.

I don't know what the .cost files are for.

Hello,
Thanks for the answers.
I finally managed to read them via Notepad++.
