POV-Ray Triangles File
A simple ASCII file format that solely stores a list of triangle vertices without any additional material or topological data. Triangle meshes are a common way of representing 3D models and shapes, using a collection of triangles to approximate the surface of the object. Here are some of the key features and benefits of RAW:
- Simplicity and Speed: RAW is a minimal and efficient format for triangle meshes, as it only contains the essential information needed to define the shape of the object. This means that RAW files are easy to create, read, and process, without any unnecessary overhead or complexity. RAW files are also small in size, which makes them suitable for fast transmission and storage.
- RAW File Converters: Automesher Application and Autoconverter software can read and import RAW files, thanks to the open asset import library. This allows you to convert your triangle RAW files to other file formats, such as STL, OBJ, DAE, SKP, STEP, and more.
- Limitations and Future Support: However, the functionality to save and export to this simple triangle RAW file format is currently not supported. This means that you cannot use our RAW file converters to export RAW files from other formats. If you require this feature, please consider submitting a support request. We are always working to improve our software and add new features and functionalities.
Object File Format
A simple and flexible file format for 3D polygonal objects. It is a versatile tool for storing and transferring 3D geometric data. It has the following features:
- ASCII Text Files: : The OFF files are text-based and use a simple syntax to store geometric data of 3D objects. The files can be easily edited and viewed with any text editor or viewer.
- Polygonal Shapes: The OFF files can store 3D triangles, quads, and other generic polygonal shapes. Each shape is defined by a list of vertices and a list of faces.
- OFF Converters: Autoconverter is our primary OFF file converter that can convert OFF files into other mesh file formats, such as STL, SKP, OBJ, PLY, etc. Autoshaper is another OFF file converter that can convert OFF files into smooth NURBS shapes, and save them into BREP, STEP, IGES, etc.
- Limitations: The OFF files do not support the conversion of materials, textures, or group names from more sophisticated 3D file formats. These attributes are not stored in the OFF files and are lost during the conversion process.
