This page provides extra guidance for converting a XPSWMM model to TUFLOW SWMM. For the full conversion process, see <u>[[XPSWMM_to_TUFLOW-SWMM|XPSWMM to TUFLOW SWMM]]</u>.
 
= Model Conversion Without a XPSWMM License =
This guide outlines the steps for converting a XPSWMM model to TUFLOW SWMM without a valid XPSWMM license. Please note that this process is <u>not recommended</u> and may result in issues with the converted TUFLOW model. For assistance with converting a XPSWMM model without a license, please contact <u>[mailto:support@tuflow.com support@tuflow.com]</u>.
 
If you have access to the XPSWMM Viewer but do not have a valid XPSWMM license, you can export the XPX data from the XPSWMM model. However, exporting the DTM data and 2D model files directly from the XPSWMM model is not possible. See the <u>[[sectionXPSWMM_to_TUFLOW-SWMM_Troubleshooting#Locate_Essential_Files|Locate below**Essential Files]]</u> section below. To export XPX data, please follow the instructions provided, <u>[[XPSWMM_to_TUFLOW-SWMM#Export_XPX_Data_From_XPSWMM |Export XPX Data From XPSWMM]]</u>.
 
Without a valid XPSWMM license and access to the XPSWMM Viewer, you will not be able to export the XPX data, DTM data, or the 2D model files directly from the XPSWMM model. See the <u>[[sectionXPSWMM_to_TUFLOW-SWMM_Troubleshooting#Locate_Essential_Files|Locate belowEssential **Files]]</u> section below.

There are different levels to the messages:
:* An 'Error' will abort the <u>[[QGIS_SWMM_Convert_XPSWMM_Model_From_XPX|Convert - XPSWMM model from XPX]]</u> processing tool and therefore may not generate a '''*_convert_messages.gpkg'''. However, there will be a description of the error in the tools log.
:* Both 'Warnings' and 'Checks' will not abort the conversion process, and they will both be reported in the '''*_convert_messages.gpkg''' and the tools log. A warning is more severe then a check, however both messages should be reviewed to determine the cause.
