X Direct3D File
X (DirectX) file is the original interchange file format for DirectX technology developed by Microsoft back in 1995 with the Windows 95 release. The X file format is capable of storing mesh geometry together with the material information including the texture images. You can convert X files into your native 3D modeling environment with Autoconverter and Automesher Application software. The reverse conversion from your native file into X file format is also possible and supported by our dedicated X file converters.
STEP File
STEP (STandardized Exchange of Product) is a very popular file format for the data 3D exchange between different computer systems e.g. CAD, CAM or CAE. As the STEP geometry data are stored in a text form you can expect bigger file sizes when exporting triangular meshes with thousands of faces using the Autoconverter software. However, if your geometry defines manifold solid it will try to create optimized faceted STEP brep representation which should reduce STEP file size by one-third. The STEP file format supports colors per assembly, but without the alpha component, therefore any transparency setting will be lost in the final STEP file.
