Transporting Job Files

AGi32 projects can consist of two files: the AGi32 job file (extension *.AGI) and the rendering file, known as the Radiosity Solution File (extension *.RSF). Transporting these files is as easy as copying both files to the new destination.

When opening an AGi32 file for the first time on a different computer, the program will first check to see if luminaire symbols, luminaire arrangements, photometric files, luminaire images and textures are already on the system along the paths defined in the AGi32 file. If the files are found the file definitions will be updated automatically.

If the photometric file is not found, AGi32 will automatically copy the photometric files to the PhotometricData_FilesFromJobFile folder specified in the System Settings-File System tab. The arrangement, symbol and image will be automatically copied to the appropriate locations. Textures will also be copied to the correct textures folder.

 

File compatibility

  1. AGi32 version 19 and later are unable to open files created in versions 2.0 and earlier.
  2. AGi32 version 19 and later cannot open files using the legacy file extension *.A32.
  3. Files with Roadway Calculation grids created in version 2.1 or later will not open in earlier versions of AGi32. Files created in version 2.04 or earlier can be opened in version 2.1 or later, but the calculation grids are converted to a single Illuminance grid that can be edited in the later versions.
  4. AGi32 version 19 and later files cannot be opened using AGi32 versions 18 and earlier.
