Terragen Terrain File
The proprietary format native to Terragen, specialized for storing high-fidelity natural terrain data. Designed specifically for landscape generation, TER files preserve elevation maps, texture layers, and environmental parameters to create realistic mountains, valleys, rivers, and ecosystems.
Key Features of TER
- File Purpose: Stores procedural and rendered terrain data for Terragen software.
- Data Type: Contains elevation maps with 16-bit precision for realistic topography.
- Texture Support: Embeds multiple texture layers for diffuse, specular, and displacement effects.
- Node Structure: Uses parametric nodes for non-destructive terrain editing.
TER File Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application can read and import TER terrain data using the Open Asset Import Library. This enables smooth and reliable conversion of terrain models from TER files into a wide range of 3D formats, including STL, OBJ, SKP, DAE, STEP, and others. Transform your Terragen landscapes into versatile 3D assets with our TER converters today!
Rhinoceros 3D (3DM) File Format
The 3DM file format is the native format for Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino), a leading NURBS-based 3D modeling software used across industries like architecture, engineering, and industrial design. 3DM files accurately store mathematical representations of curves, surfaces, solids, and meshes, making them essential for precision 3D modeling and CAD workflows.
Key Features of 3DM Files
- NURBS Geometry: Supports precise, smooth surfaces critical for advanced design and engineering projects.
- Polygonal Meshes: Stores tessellated 3D models ideal for rendering, simulation, and 3D printing workflows.
- SubD Surfaces: Allows flexible, editable subdivision modeling for organic shapes and complex surfaces.
- Instance References: Saves memory by creating linked object instances, optimizing large and detailed models.
Convert 3DM Files Seamlessly
Autoconverter and Autoshaper simplify 3DM file conversion to popular formats like STEP, IGES, OBJ, STL, and DWG. Automate the export of 3DM polygon meshes for 3D printing, or preserve NURBS data for engineering-grade CAD models. Save files in legacy (Rhino 2.X - 7.X) or latest Rhino 8.X formats to ensure compatibility across all project environments.
