What is a 3DC file?

3DC files mostly belong to 3D Crafter by Amabilis. The 3DC (3 Dimensional Canvas) file format is used to store 3-dimensional media that consist of models and raster images formatted as canvas objects. The 3DC format is primarily associated with 3DCrafter developed by Amabilis. Visual contents of a 3DC file may include complex models, technical illustrations, animations, and simulations created from 3D primitives or canvas object building tools. 3DC files can be converted to other media formats including AVI and they are also associated with applications like Computrainer 3D by RacerMate which stores the game's course files in 3DC format. Common use cases of the 3DC format include 3-dimensional illustration or simulation of real-world maps, buildings, cities and much more.

How to open a 3DC file

You need a suitable software like 3D Crafter to open a 3DC file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your 3DC file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a 3DC file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

3DCC Color Scheme

3DC file format:

Each file has a definite file format, that is, how the stored data is arranged in the file. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. If the file extension or signature does not match the file format, errors will occur when opening or editing the file. So you need a detailed analysis of a file to find out the format and the associated program. In the following you will find our evaluation of the 3DC files:

The file type with the extension '3DC' includes different formats for different programs. The two most common formats are as follows:

25% of all 3DC files use the same file format, which have the signature BSCRYPT0@. These are binary files, so they do not contain words or text. 3DC files can be up to 4 MB in size, but are often around 620 KB - 2 MB. The file type is very recent. The keywords BSCRYPT0@ are typical for these files. Such files sometimes refer to master, office and closet, and contain personal data.
15% of all 3DC files use the same file format, which can be identified by the letters "3I" at the beginning. They consist of illegible, cryptic characters. The files are 1 MB to 15 MB in size, with a median of 11 MB.

The remaining 60% of all 3DC files are files with no common format, such as JetDB, XML, OFj and Cadent. They are often associated with demf, foot, humf, upper, wing, boots, china or here. Just click the "Choose your .3dc file to analyze" button on this page to find out what your 3DC file is.

How to solve problems with 3DC files

Associate the 3DC file extension with the correct application.
Update your software that should actually open 3d model files. Because only the current version supports the latest 3DC file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the Amabilis manufacturer website after an available 3D Crafter update.
To make sure that your 3DC file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
