About CCB files

The .ccb file extension is heavily fragmented across different industries, but it is primarily known as a CocosBuilder interface description file or a CopperCube 3D scene file. In the mobile game development ecosystem, developers previously used CocosBuilder to visually design user interfaces, saving the layouts as underlying XML files. In the 3D space, game developers use Ambiera CopperCube to store entire interactive 3D environments, including meshes, materials, and scripts, in a proprietary binary format. Alternatively, enterprise and industrial systems, such as the CONTPAQi Contabilidad accounting software and Unitron UC32 controllers, utilize the .ccb extension for critical system backups, often employing zlib or standard ZIP compression under a disguised extension. Because .ccb serves multiple distinct purposes, dealing with these files without the exact originating software is highly frustrating. CopperCube files are locked to the Ambiera engine, making cross-platform 3D collaboration difficult without native export tools. CocosBuilder files are largely outdated, as developers have migrated to modern engines like Cocos Creator. Standard online converters generally fail to process these files because they cannot guess the correct internal structure. For 3D files, the best conversion target is a universal format like OBJ or FBX, but this usually requires the original software. For UI files, converting to raw XML or JSON makes the data readable again. For backup variants, simply extracting the data to a standard ZIP archive is the primary goal. Just drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. convert.guru can analyze the internal file headers to determine whether your .ccb file is an XML script, a compressed archive, or a 3D scene, allowing you to inspect the content and extract underlying data whenever possible.

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

Users also converted CBB, CCBI, ZIP, CCP, 3DS and 3DXML files.

The CCB 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 CCB converter.
