For people who are curious, here is a bit of info:

I couldn't find a trial / demo version, though.

RE: IGES STEP CAD file issues

2008-05-27 Thread Jeremiah Flerchinger
Well, I haven't had any luck getting Pro/Engineer Wildfire 4.0 to
install on Linux with Wine.  It fails at a different point every time
with one of a dozen documented errors.  They suggesting ordering 
installing off a CD to fix most of those issues.

Guillermo, I actually started an email to you previously, but wanted to
try my hand at getting Pro/E to run first.  As it stands I can't find
anything to load the Pro/E geometry.  Would you be willing to translate
the new Openmoko Neo FreeRunner Pro/E file
http://downloads.openmoko.org/CAD/NeoFreerunner_ProE.zip to some
alternate formats (IGES, STEP, etc)?

Also good job on your Neo skin.  It looks great  most of those files
load perfectly for me.  If you could translate the new Pro/E file into
STEP  IGES, then I have good faith I could load them into a 3D modeler
program.

Thanks,

Jeremiah
