ASE Autodesk Scene Export File

A file format that was developed by Autodesk for their 3D Studio software. It is an ASCII format that can store the information of a 3D scene, such as the meshes, materials, and other properties. Here are some of the key features and benefits of ASE:

  • ASE File Import: Autoconverter and Automesher Application can read and import ASE files and convert them to other 3D formats, such as OFF, PLY, 3DM, SKP, and others. We use the open asset import library, which is a cross-platform library that supports many 3D file formats. By using this library, we can preserve the original features of the ASE file, such as the textures, colors, and UV coordinates.
  • ASE File Export: Currently, our software does not support saving and exporting to the ASE file format. This is a limitation of the open asset import library, which does not provide a way to write ASE files. If you need this feature and want to export your model to an ASE file, please contact our support team and let us know. We appreciate your feedback and suggestions.

PLY Polygon File

A file format specifically designed to store three-dimensional triangles along with additional properties such as color, normals, transparency, or texture coordinates. PLY is also known as the Stanford Triangle Format, as it was developed at Stanford University in the early 1990s. PLY has many applications and benefits for 3D graphics, such as:

  • Rich and Customizable Data: PLY is a comprehensive and flexible format for 3D triangles, as it can store not only the geometric information of the triangles, but also the material and appearance information of the vertices and faces. PLY also allows for the definition of custom properties and elements, which can be used to store any additional data that is relevant to the 3D model.
  • PLY File Converter: Autoconverter allows you to convert your 3D models from various file formats, such as STL, SKP, OBJ, DAE, 3DS, STEP, and others, to PLY and vice versa.
  • Binary and ASCII Formats: It’s worth noting that PLY files can be saved in either binary or ASCII text formats. The binary version is generally preferred due to its significant reduction in file size and faster loading speed. However, the ASCII version is more human-readable and easier to edit. Our PLY file converter can handle both formats and convert between them.
