Continuing the discussion from [File doesnt load, empty scene, thumbnail ok](https://forum.nomadsculpt.com/t/file-doesnt-load-empty-scene-thumbnail-ok/868/2):
Im gonna be transparent with you, I was using a trail version 1.71 when I sculpted the model, it was only afterwards that I realized I couldnt export it. I cant currently buy the official version so in able to export it, I downloaded a MOD version for now. But the trail versions project format was .nom files. And the Mod 1.70 versions project format is glb.lz4 file format. So when I load the .nom file, it says **Unknown model file extension: nom** Is there anything that can be done? Do you think the file is atleast ok until I can buy the ful version?
is there a way I could load it or convert the .nom file to glb.lz4?

Use [nomad - WebAssembly](https://nomadsculpt.com/demo_save/)
I don’t care about the MOD stuff but I certainly don’t want to waste a second on stuffs like that.
