Dear Performers,

I have the following problem with OpenGL Performer cat2pfb utility (http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?coll=0650&db=man&fname=/usr/share/catman/u_man/cat1/Performer_demo/cat2pfb.z):

After a tremendeous effort I managed to get a temporary license from Dassault Systemes CATIA V4 for 14 days in order to run tests with CATIA to Performer Fast Binary Converter. I had a CATIA V5 model, which I saved in V5 to V4 format, .CATProduct file to .session file (which unfortunately cannot be converted to pfb) and .CATPart files to .model files.

The cat2pfb converter ran fine after all the trouble and created several pfb files from the CATIA model directory. When I tried to open the pfb files, all I got was an empty scene, and a lot of error messages:

OpenGL Error 0x501 - invalid value

Since I do not have the possibility to run any tests because my CATIA V4 license on Onyx4 expired, I would like to get answers to these two questions before I try to run some tests again:

1) how do I get rid of 0x501 errors, and convert the models to pfb's? (is it maybe because of inability to convert SI system style decimal delimiters, ',' - commas - to US style decimal points '.' ?)

2) which is the best way to create a Performer scenegraph from .CATProduct or .session file, which is a binary file containing the coordinates for all the .CATParts in the assembly?
