Convert a file to AUR

To convert other file formats to the "Simulation Cache File" file type, you need software like Chaos Phoenix or a similar tool.


About AUR files

The .AUR file extension is primarily used by Chaos Phoenix to store volumetric fluid simulation cache data, including complex fire, smoke, and liquid dynamics. Alternatively, it may function as a lighting profile for ASUS Aura Sync, a script for the BioWare Aurora Engine, or a vector graphic for Aurelon signmaking software. As a proprietary cache format, .AUR files pose significant usability challenges. Phoenix cache files often exceed gigabytes in size, require expensive monthly subscriptions to host tools like Autodesk 3ds Max, and cannot be previewed in web browsers or standard operating system viewers. To share these 3D simulations, you must render the cache into accessible target formats like MP4 video or EXR image sequences. Because .AUR is a closed, highly specialized format, standard online converters fail to process it. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the underlying volumetric or hardware data. However, convert.guru provides a pragmatic workaround. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view its internal structure, and convert it if our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format.

Convert.Guru analyzes your AUR file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted ALM, TSO and MCM files.

The AUR Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our AUR converter.
