COB Caligari TrueSpace COB File Format

The COB file format was developed by Caligari Corporation for its 3D modeling and animation software, TrueSpace. COB files store complete 3D scene data including geometry, materials, textures, lights, and animation. Though TrueSpace is now discontinued, COB remains an essential format for preserving and converting legacy 3D content.

Key Features of COB Files

  • Full 3D Scene Storage: COB files encapsulate entire scenes with objects, lighting, cameras, and animation data.
  • Two Format Variants:
    • ASCII COB: Human-readable format ideal for manual inspection and debugging.
    • Binary COB: Compact format optimized for performance and faster loading times.
  • Material & Texture Support: Includes surface colors, image textures, and basic shading information.
  • Geometry Types: Supports both NURBS-based and polygon mesh 3D models for greater flexibility.

COB File Conversion Tools

Use Autoconverter and Automesher Application to import and convert COB files into modern 3D formats such as FBX, OBJ, SKP, STEP, and SAT. Our converters retain crucial data including UV mapping, materials, and mesh topology by utilizing the Open Asset Import Library (Assimp) for accurate and reliable file processing.

Note: COB files can only be imported - exporting to COB format is not supported.

JPG JPEG/JPG Image Format for Compression and 3D Conversion

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is one of the most popular file formats for compressing and storing digital images. Unlike BMP, which saves every pixel uncompressed, JPEG uses lossy compression to significantly reduce file sizes by discarding some image data - a trade-off that allows for faster loading times, easier sharing, and efficient storage without dramatically sacrificing visual quality.

Key Characteristics of JPEG/JPG Files

  • Efficient File Size: JPEG compression drastically reduces image file sizes, making it ideal for web use, emails, and online portfolios.
  • Adjustable Compression Levels: Users can fine-tune the balance between image quality and file size to suit different applications, from high-quality prints to web-optimized photos.
  • High Visual Quality: Despite lossy compression, JPEG images maintain a visually acceptable quality for most photographs and digital artworks.
  • Permanent Data Loss: Because JPEG compression is lossy, some image details, especially fine textures and sharp edges, are permanently discarded and cannot be recovered.
