Autodesk Scene Export File
Developed by Autodesk for 3D Studio, the ASCII based ASE format stores comprehensive 3D scene data, including polygonal meshes, material definitions, animation keys, and lighting parameters. As a human-readable text format, it enables manual editing while maintaining compatibility with legacy 3D workflows.
Key Features of ASE
- Material Data Storage: ASE files store material information including colors, textures, and shaders used in 3D scenes.
- Hierarchical Scene Structure: ASE supports parent-child relationships between objects for organizing complex 3D scenes.
- Transform and Pivot Data: Object transformations like position, rotation, scale, and pivot points are stored.
- No Binary Compression: Being text-based, ASE files do not include any binary compression, which makes them larger in size.
ASE File Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application leverage the cross-platform open asset import library to seamlessly read, import, and convert ASE files into a variety of 3D formats—including OFF, PLY, 3DM, and SKP - while preserving critical data such as textures, colors, and UV coordinates. This ensures accurate transitions from legacy 3D Studio scenes to modern workflows without losing essential visual or structural details.

Graphics Language Transmission File
A file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group organization, a consortium of industry leaders that creates open standards for graphics, media, and parallel computing. It is designed to facilitate the efficient storage and exchange of 3D models.
Key Features of GLTF and GLB
- GLTF Versions: There are two versions of the GLTF file format that are available:
- GLTF 1.0: Supports basic geometry, simple materials with textures, basic skeletal animations with joint hierarchies, scenes with a single root node and a hierarchy of child nodes, etc.
- GLTF 2.0: Supports more features, such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials, Draco compression, advanced skeletal animations, skinning, morph targets, etc.
- ASCII and Binary Modes: By default, a GLTF file is saved in ASCII text mode, which is human-readable and easy to edit. To save a GLTF file with all referenced texture images in binary mode, the GLB file extension should be used. This reduces the file size and the number of files.
- Embedded Textures: GLTF/GLB files allow for a more streamlined and efficient way to manage 3D assets. By storing textures directly within the file, these formats eliminate the need for separate image files, making the 3D model self-contained and easier to distribute.
GLTF/GLB File Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow you to import and export GLTF and GLB files, and convert them into various other 3D file formats. Our products also support the use of Draco compression, which can significantly reduce the size of GLTF and GLB files without compromising visual fidelity.
