OGEX Open Game Engine Exchange File

A standardized, text-based file format designed for seamless 3D asset exchange between game engines and tools. OpenGEX simplifies pipelines by unifying geometry, materials, animations, and scene hierarchies in a vendor-neutral way. Its modular structure supports extensions for physics, lighting, and metadata - making it ideal for cross-engine workflows in Unity, Unreal, and proprietary systems.

Key Features of OGEX

  • Data Scope:

    Unified storage for geometry, materials, lights, and cameras.

  • Text-Based:

    Uses human-readable ASCII/JSON-like syntax, making it easy to read and edit manually.

  • Animation Support:

    Handles skeletal, morph target, and keyframe animations.

  • Extensible Design:

    Designed to be extended with custom structures without breaking compatibility.

OGEX File Conversion

Automesher Application and Autoconverter leverage the Open Asset Import Library to seamlessly read and convert OGEX files into widely used formats like STL, SKP, OBJ, and STEP, ensuring compatibility across diverse 3D workflows. Preserve animations, materials, and scene hierarchies while transitioning between game engines or CAD tools - try our powerful OGEX converters today to modernize your 3D assets!

3DS 3D Studio File

A widely recognized format used for storing 3D polygonal mesh models, originally developed for Autodesk 3D Studio. Known for its broad compatibility and straightforward structure, it remains a popular choice for real-time visualization, gaming, architectural modeling, and lighting design despite its legacy limitations.

Key Features & Capabilities

  • Extensive Support:

    The 3DS format supports model naming conventions, reusable geometry instances, and material definitions including transparent colors and texture mapping. Its hierarchical structure preserves object relationships and basic animation data.

  • High Compatibility:

    3DS files work with most major 3D software including DIALux for lighting design, Blender, Cinema 4D, and game engines like Unity. This makes it ideal for cross-platform asset sharing.

  • Technical Limitations:

    Due to its DOS-era origins, the format has strict constraints: mesh names are limited to 8 characters, and each mesh object can contain no more than 32,767 triangles. The format also lacks support for modern features like PBR materials or NURBS surfaces.

3DS File Converters

Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application automatically resolve legacy 3DS format constraints by intelligently partitioning large models into compliant, optimized sub-meshes. This ensures your 3D assets maintain integrity when exported to the 3DS format. While newer formats offer more features, 3DS remains valuable for legacy systems, lighting simulations, and situations requiring broad software support without complex dependencies.
