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.

PNG Portable Network Graphics Image

It's a type of raster image file format that uses lossless compression. This means that the image quality is preserved even when the file size is reduced. PNG files also support transparency, which allows images to have irregular shapes or backgrounds that blend with the web page. However, PNG files do not support animation, unlike GIF files.

Key Features of PNG

  • Space-Saving Efficiency:

    PNG’s compressed format delivers smaller files than uncompressed alternatives (e.g., BMP), accelerating webpage loads without sacrificing quality.

  • Lossless Compression:

    Using the same DEFLATE algorithm as ZIP files, PNG’s lossless compression retains crisp details - ideal for repeated edits or archiving.

  • Diverse Imagery:

    Where JPEG struggles with artifacts in text/logos, PNG excels at rendering solid colors and hard edges flawlessly.

  • Advanced Color Options:

    From full 24-bit RGB (plus 8-bit alpha transparency) to compact 256-color palettes, PNG adapts to both complex photos and simple graphics.
