OpenGEX File Format - Open Game Engine Exchange
The OGEX file format (Open Game Engine Exchange) is a standardized, human-readable 3D model format designed to streamline asset exchange between game engines such as Unity, Unreal Engine, and proprietary pipelines. Created by the OpenGEX project, it unifies geometry, materials, animations, and scene hierarchies in a single cross-platform format ideal for game development and real-time rendering workflows.
Key Features of OGEX Files
- Comprehensive 3D Data: Stores mesh geometry, materials, lighting, cameras, and node hierarchies.
- Editable Syntax: Text-based format using JSON-style ASCII for easy manual editing and debugging.
- Animation Support: Includes skeletal rigs, morph targets, and keyframe-based animations.
- Flexible & Extensible: Supports custom extensions for physics, metadata, and visual effects integration.
OGEX File Converter Tools
Automesher Application and Autoconverter offer full support for importing and converting OGEX files into popular 3D formats such as OBJ, STL, SKP, and STEP. Built on the reliable Open Asset Import Library, our OGEX converters preserve scene structure, materials, and animation data - enabling accurate integration with modern game engines and CAD platforms. Streamline your pipeline with fast, vendor-neutral OGEX file conversion.
3MF (3D Manufacturing Format) File
The 3MF (3D Manufacturing Format) is an open-source XML-based file format developed by the 3MF Consortium - an industry group composed of leading companies in the 3D printing sector. 3MF was specifically designed to address the limitations of older formats like STL, offering a richer, more extensible framework for modern additive manufacturing workflows. With 3MF, you can store not just the model geometry, but also color, textures, material properties, and metadata within a single compressed file.
Key Advantages of 3MF Over STL
Unlike traditional STL files that store only basic 3D geometry, the 3MF format provides a wide range of enhanced capabilities:
- Color Support: Enables full-color 3D printing by defining colors per triangle or per object, enhancing model realism.
- Texture Mapping: Associates 2D image textures with 3D surfaces, producing highly detailed and visually realistic prints.
- Embedded Metadata: Includes detailed information such as author, copyright, licensing, description, and more - improving project management and file documentation.
- ZIP Compression: Uses ZIP-based packaging to efficiently compress and bundle model data, reducing file size while maintaining structure and content.
3MF File Conversion and Workflow
Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application offer full support for importing, exporting, and converting 3MF files. Powered by the official lib3mf library, our software ensures high compatibility and reliable file processing across various 3D printing and CAD workflows.
Note: A current limitation of the 3MF format is its lack of support for nested group hierarchies. When converting complex 3D models with subgroup structures, the hierarchy will be flattened during export. Nevertheless, 3MF remains a highly advanced and preferred format for professional 3D printing, providing significant advantages over older standards like STL.
