CSM Character Studio Marker File

The proprietary format for Autodesk's Character Studio, designed to store animated 3D characters with complete bone structures, skin weights, and motion capture data. As the native format for this legacy animation toolkit, CSM files preserve skeletal rigs, biped configurations, and facial animation systems that powered realistic character movement in 3ds Max workflows.

Key Features of CSM

  • Animation Data:

    Preserves motion capture sequences and keyframe animations.

  • Facial Animation:

    Supports morph targets and facial expression controls.

  • File Interoperability:

    Native to 3ds Max workflows (1995-2010 era).

  • Legacy Status:

    Replaced by FBX/BVH for modern character pipelines.

CSM File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application support CSM file import through open asset libraries, enabling seamless conversion of Character Studio's bone, animation, and mesh data into modern formats like FBX, DAE, STL, SKP, and OBJ.

KMZ Google Earth Placemark File

A compressed file format that bundles KML (Keyhole Markup Language) files along with their associated resources - such as images, textures, 3D models, and overlays - into a single, smaller archive. Designed for efficient storage and sharing, KMZ files are natively supported by Google Earth and Google Earth Pro, making them ideal for distributing complex geospatial projects.

Advantages and Features

  • ZIP Compression:

    Using standard ZIP compression, this format significantly reduces file size and bandwidth usage compared to uncompressed KML, enabling faster transfers and more efficient storage.

  • Geometrical Support:

    The KMZ format accommodates diverse geospatial elements, including points, line strings, polygons, and 3D models (Collada DAE), allowing for rich representation of real-world features.

  • Compatibility:

    Widely supported across platforms, the KMZ file format works seamlessly with major geospatial tools like Google Earth, Google Maps, ArcGIS, and QGIS, ensuring easy sharing and editing.

KMZ File Converter

Our Automapki Application enables seamless KMZ file import and export in AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD. It allows you to convert DWG entities - such as points, lines, polygons, 3D solids, and raster images - into KMZ format for use in Google Earth. With full two-way conversion capabilities, Automapki add-on ensures smooth data exchange between these formats.
