Blast™ low-level and Tk libraries will only load data in the most current format. If your data is in an older format, you may use the Data Format Conversion Extension (NvBlastExtConverterLL) API to convert to the current format.

DataConverter.exe is a utility to convert Blast™ data from an older format into the current format. The data must be stored in a binary-format file with filename given as the <infile> parameter. It uses the Data Format Conversion Extension (NvBlastExtConverterLL) API to perform the conversion.

Currently, DataConverter only works on the low-level data formats for an asset (NvBlastAsset) and family (NvBlastFamily). The .blast files used by SampleAssetViewer (see Samples) may be converted using this tool.
