thank you so much @GeorgDangl <https://github.com/GeorgDangl> for this information, i was zipping the folde dirrectly in windows and i think thats what was causing the problem, meaning that the zipping wasn't actually respecting the structure of a standard bcf file again thank you for your help and if i have any issue i won't hesitate to share it with the community — You are receiving this because you were mentioned.

@GeorgDangl what im trying to say, is there any rules or standards from a software devlopement point of view that i need to respect while generating an BCF

Hey @assaad97, thank you for raising this issue!

There's a check tool available by @CBenghi: https://github.com/CBenghi/bcf-tool/

I just checked your file and it looks fine, the check tool didn't give any warnings. A brief manual inspection also didn't show anything unusual.

However, I think you might have made an error when zipping the file. BCF files themselves are zip archives that should have folders for all the topics in the file. However, in your archive, there was just a root level folder called test.bcf, so it looks like the structure might be off?

Other than that, I think that the author of Xeokit, Lindsay Kay, has some experience with creating BCF files from his viewer, so he might even have something ready for that?
