Extract text from MATRIS logs and game levels (ME1)
To convert ME1 Data files to another format, you need Volvo MATRIS or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Machine Diagnostic Log" file type, you need software like Volvo MATRIS or a similar tool.
The .ME1 file format primarily functions as a machine diagnostic data log generated by Volvo MATRIS (Machine Tracking Information System) or related systems like the Meurrens excavator software. These files store highly specific telemetry data, such as engine hours, fuel consumption, hydraulic pressure, and fault codes for heavy construction equipment.
The main disadvantage of the .ME1 format is its strictly proprietary nature. It is heavily encrypted or encoded as a raw binary file, meaning you cannot open it with standard spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel or standard text editors. Analyzing the data requires expensive, authorized dealer software like Volvo MATRIS.
Alternatively, the .ME1 extension is used by the 2008 video game Mirror's Edge (developed by DICE) as an Unreal Engine game level data package. These files contain 3D meshes, textures, and map geometry. A third, less common use is as a synthesizer multi-patch file for the vintage Korg M1 workstation, storing MIDI preset parameters.
Users typically want to convert Volvo .ME1 diagnostic files to standard CSV, TXT, or JSON to analyze fleet performance data without OEM software. For game files, modders attempt to extract internal assets to OBJ or PNG. However, because these files are closed proprietary formats, standard online converters completely fail to process them. Drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. convert.guru can identify the exact sub-type of your .ME1 file. Even if a full structural conversion requires the original software, our tool can safely inspect the internal hex data to extract readable plain-text fault codes or embedded metadata without requiring a $50/month subscription or specialized hardware.
Convert.Guru analyzes your ME1 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted BSM, UEXP and TTP files.

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 ME1 converter.
