ASE Autodesk Scene Export (ASE) File Format

The ASE file format (Autodesk Scene Export) is a text-based 3D file format developed by Autodesk for 3D Studio. As an ASCII format, ASE files contain complete 3D scene descriptions, including polygon meshes, materials, textures, lights, and animation data. This human-readable format offers easy manual editing and is ideal for legacy workflows and interoperability across older 3D software platforms.

Key Features of ASE Files

  • Material and Texture Support: Stores full material definitions including textures, shaders, colors, and surface properties.
  • Scene Hierarchy: Supports object nesting and parent-child relationships for complex scene management.
  • Animation & Transforms: Includes keyframe data, rotation, translation, scale, and pivot information.
  • Text-Based Format: Fully editable ASCII structure with no binary compression, making it accessible and readable.

ASE File Conversion Tools

Convert ASE files with Autoconverter and Automesher Application. These tools offer reliable import and export of ASE scenes to modern 3D file formats such as FBX, USD, OBJ, SKP, OFF, PLY, and 3DM. Using the open-source Asset Import Library, our ASE converters preserve materials, geometry, and scene hierarchies for seamless transition from legacy 3D Studio files to today's design and rendering environments.


OBJ What is an OBJ File? (Alias Wavefront Object Explained)

The OBJ file format is a widely used open standard for storing and exchanging 3D geometry, originally developed by Wavefront Technologies. Unlike binary formats, OBJ files use a human-readable text format, making them highly compatible across 3D modeling, animation, and rendering software.

Key Features and Benefits of OBJ Files

  • Multiple Named Objects: OBJ files can contain multiple 3D objects within a single file, each organized with individual names, ideal for complex 3D scenes and asset management.
  • Surface Materials and Textures: OBJ files support detailed surface definitions, including transparent materials and texture mapping, enabling realistic 3D model rendering.
  • Quad and Triangle Support: Geometry in OBJ files can include both quads and triangles. During OBJ file conversion, quads are automatically divided into triangles to ensure compatibility with applications that only support triangular meshes.
  • File Size Considerations: As a text-based format, OBJ files tend to be larger than binary formats like SKP or 3DS, which can impact loading speeds and storage requirements for complex models.
