SKP SketchUp 3D Model - SKP File Format

The SKP file format is the native 3D model format for SketchUp, originally developed by Google and now maintained by Trimble. Known for its simplicity and powerful modeling capabilities, SKP files are widely used in architecture, interior design, engineering, and product design for creating detailed 3D models quickly and efficiently.

Key Features and Advantages of SKP Files

  • Comprehensive 3D Data: SKP files store reusable components, grouped meshes, layers, scenes, and textured materials, enabling streamlined modeling workflows and faster project development across architectural and engineering disciplines.
  • Version-Specific Requirements: SketchUp files vary by version. For instance, SKP files from version 2016 and newer require a Win64 build for compatibility, while older files can be opened with Win32 builds. Understanding SKP version differences is crucial for smooth file sharing and project collaboration.
  • Scalability and Performance: Whether modeling small furniture pieces or large urban environments, SKP files scale efficiently. SketchUp optimizations ensure that even large, highly detailed scenes maintain fast, responsive performance.

SKP File Conversion and Version Management

Need to convert SketchUp files across different versions? Our Autoconverter software offers a seamless solution. Autoconverter can accurately convert SKP files from SketchUp 3 up to SketchUp 2025, allowing easy collaboration across different SketchUp releases.

USD USD & USDZ File Format - Universal Scene Description by Pixar

Universal Scene Description (USD), developed by Pixar, is a powerful framework for creating, editing, and exchanging complex 3D scenes. Now widely adopted in the VFX, animation, and AR industries, the USD ecosystem supports large-scale pipelines through its modular, scalable, and cross-platform architecture. USDZ is its optimized variant for mobile AR applications, especially on Apple devices.

Key Features of USD and USDZ

  • Modular and Composable Architecture: USD enables efficient scene composition by referencing multiple files, allowing teams to collaborate on complex projects without data duplication or conflicts.
  • Cross-Platform Interoperability: USD ensures accurate data exchange across software platforms like Maya, Blender, Unreal Engine, and more - ideal for collaborative, multi-tool workflows.
  • Hierarchical and Layered Scene Representation: Easily organize 3D data using namespaces, variants, layers, and references, providing unparalleled control over versioning and detail management.
