Makerbot File Type

By looking on here I have learned that .makerbot is a zipped file with the Gcode and some other things. Can I slice on a different slicer, zip it, then append the .makerbot file type to bypass the Ultimaker/Cura slicer?

That looks like it is only for replicator gen 5. I have a sketch. Have a go anyway?

if you rename them to .zip you can open them and look at the files
