FBX Filmbox (FBX) 3D Model File Format

The FBX file format is a proprietary, industry-standard format for 3D models, assets, and animations. Originally developed by Kaydara and later acquired by Autodesk, FBX has become a universal 3D interchange format. It enables seamless transfer of 3D data - including complex hierarchies, materials, textures, and animations - between modeling, animation, and rendering software, ensuring consistent and efficient 3D workflows.

Key Features of FBX Files

  • Embedded Textures: FBX files store texture images directly within the 3D file, eliminating the need for external assets and ensuring consistent model appearance across different platforms and applications.
  • Reusable Geometry Components: FBX supports modular storage of geometry components, enhancing model consistency, reusability, and efficiency.
  • Hierarchical Assembly Structures: The format captures complex assembly structures and object hierarchies, enabling detailed and organized 3D scenes.
  • Animation Support: FBX files can embed animation data - including skeletons, keyframes, and motion capture - making them ideal for game development, film production, and AR/VR applications (though animation support may vary between software).

FBX File Conversion Solutions

Our Autoconverter and Autoshaper software provide powerful, high-fidelity FBX file conversion to and from 30+ CAD and 3D file formats (including SKP, STEP, OBJ, STL, and more). Whether you are optimizing mesh models for games or translating engineering-grade NURBS surfaces, our tools ensure maximum data preservation - including textures, materials, hierarchies, and animations - throughout the conversion process.

IV IV File - Open Inventor 3D Scene Format

The IV file format, also known as the Open Inventor format, is a text-based 3D graphics standard originally developed by Silicon Graphics (SGI). Designed for complete 3D scene representation, IV files use hierarchical scene graphs to define geometry, lighting, materials, and textures. The format played a key role in early 3D development and is tightly integrated with the Open Inventor API - an object-oriented C++ toolkit used in scientific visualization, CAD, and simulation.

Key Features of IV Files

  • Readable File Structure: Human-friendly ASCII format that organizes 3D content using nested nodes for easier editing and scripting.
  • Scene Graph Hierarchy: Defines parent-child relationships between 3D objects using a directed acyclic graph (DAG) structure.
  • Rich Visual Metadata: Includes lighting, shading, camera settings, and full material definitions (specular, ambient, diffuse, transparency).
  • Texture Support: Handles both procedural and raster-based textures using UV mapping coordinates.
  • Legacy Compatibility: Ideal for scientific and engineering applications that still rely on Open Inventor-based platforms.

Convert IV Files to FBX, glTF, OBJ, and More

Use Autoconverter to easily convert IV files to modern 3D formats like FBX, glTF, STL, OBJ, and DAE. Our IV file converter preserves full scene structure, materials, and geometry, bridging the gap between legacy and modern 3D workflows. Whether you are updating legacy data or working in cross-platform 3D environments, Autoconverter makes IV file conversion seamless and reliable.
