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. Automate Character Studio conversions to FBX/GLB with our professional CSM converters today!

OFF Object File Format

A straightforward, human-readable file format designed for representing 3D polygonal models. As a lightweight alternative to complex CAD formats, OFF focuses on storing essential geometric data - vertices, edges, and faces - without proprietary constraints.

Key Features of OFF

  • ASCII Text Files:

    : 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 format allows to store 3D triangles, quads, and other generic polygonal shapes. Each shape is defined by a list of vertices and a list of faces.

  • Limitations:

    OFF files support only geometric data - materials, textures, and group names from source files are discarded during conversion.

OFF File Conversion

Our software offers two specialized approaches for OFF file conversion. Autoconverter handles conversion of OFF files to common mesh formats including STL, SKP, OBJ, and PLY, maintaining the original polygonal structure. Autoshaper provides advanced conversion of OFF polygonal data into smooth NURBS surfaces, exporting to BREP, STEP, and IGES formats for CAD workflows.
