Moho Forum

Hello, I'm a recent user Moho 5 and I have a problem.

I created a character in a file .moho independent, I have changed several times without problems and I have saved as PNG smoothly yesterday.

Now I can't open the file, said:

Could not open file
Error details:
Bad file header: □ PNG

[ Ok ]

After opening the window from Moho, but empty.

Is there a way to recover the file? I have saved his version in PNG, but...

I have the same actions with other Moho objects, but these are perfectly.

Please help. Go to create a character that I would be complicated.


Thanks, Ewi. Moho is a very nice animation program.


(sorry, I'm not english speaker)

I doubt whether there is a way to recover that PNG file, but that shouldn't be an issue if you have the .MOHO file you used to create it. Just open that file up again and export as a PNG again (or some other file format).

Now, if you're saying (and I'm not sure) that you can't open the MOHO file that's a different story. In that case posting the file here is the quickest way to get it solved (because folks like myself can find the problem and fix).

Is the second case you've said, I can not open the file Mold.

"posting the file here" refers to upload file in this forum?

Sorry, I do not understand a word of English ...

thanks for the help.

You will need to post it somewhere and then provide a link to it here.

However, if you want you can send the file directly to me and I'd be glad to look at it -- the MOHO file is an ASCII file and fairly easy to parse (and usually fix). My email is mike at kelleytown dot com (with symbols -- I am trying to avoid spammers here). If you do send it to me direct I can't look at it until later this evening (I'm off to play in a tennis tournament).

The advantage of posting here is there are folks who know far more about this stuff than I do (but, as I said, I suspect I can figure out your particular problem).
