Extract text from Stick figure files (NODES)
To convert NODES files to another format, you need Stick Nodes or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Animation & Graph Data" file type, you need software like Stick Nodes or a similar tool.
A .nodes file primarily stores stick figure animation components and 2D objects created in Stick Nodes, a popular mobile animation app. The file contains coordinate data, joint properties, and keyframe instructions for vector-based stick figures. Secondary uses for the .nodes extension include geometry data for the game Geometry Dash, 3D model node network structures in Blender, audio routing projects in AudioNodes, and graph datasets utilized by network analysis tools like Gephi.
The .nodes format is heavily proprietary and application-specific. This is a major disadvantage because the files are essentially useless outside of their native software ecosystems. A Stick Nodes .nodes file contains raw mathematical node coordinates rather than pixel data, meaning it cannot be opened or viewed by standard image viewers, vector editors, or web browsers. PC users often struggle to access these files because they are tied to a mobile application.
Users typically need to convert .nodes files into standard video formats like MP4 or animated GIF to share on social media, or to SVG and PNG for static vector editing. However, this file format is difficult to open or convert directly. Standard online converters fail because only the original software contains the exact rendering engine required to visually interpret the nodal mathematics into an actual image or animation. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your NODES file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted NODEMC, ZIP, STK, SVG, PKPASS, LEVEL15, VTX, VTU and PNG files.
If you want to convert NODES file to PNG, SVG, AI, EPS, PDF, JPG, CDR, WMF, EMF, SWF, FLA or XFL, you can use Stick Nodes or similar software from the "Animation Component Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert AFPUB, EPS, FIG, VSD, SKETCH, VDX, AFPHOTO, PDF, AFDESIGN, SVG, VSDX or AI files to NODES, try Stick Nodes or another comparable tool in the "Animation Component Storage" category.
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 NODES converter.
