How to recover SBS files

daniellooartist

Hello guys. I'm trying to open an old substance designer package. Normally I'd try to play around with it before posting but I'm afraid I'll only damage it more. I spend 2 days working on 9 different materials and there is no way I'm going to lose this. Is there ANYTHING i can do to recover it?

Here is a dropbox link to the substance itself. If you can recover it, you can keep it.

Here's your problem... the file doesn't end properly...

I managed to save most of the sbs.
The "metal_rough" graph was missing a good chunk of its data and its unrecoverable.

A sbs file is supposed to end with </graph></content></package>. If it doesn't, then it means data has been lost at some point.

Thank you so much. The metal_rough was pretty easy to make so I'm not too worried.
