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!

IFC Industrial Foundation Classes File

It is an open, ISO-certified standard (ISO 16739) specifically designed for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. As a vendor-neutral format, IFC enables seamless data exchange and interoperability between different software applications, eliminating proprietary barriers in collaborative projects.

IFC Format Capabilities

The IFC format can store comprehensive project data for AEC workflows, including but not limited to:

  • Geometry:

    The IFC standard captures detailed 3D representations through multiple entity types including solids, surfaces, curves, and point clouds.

  • Units:

    Each model component specifies its measurement system (meters, inches, degrees, or radians) for precise interpretation.

  • Materials:

    IFC's material system controls visual properties through RGBA values (0-1 range) for accurate color and transparency settings.

  • Instances:

    Through IFC's mapping system, identical geometries can be referenced multiple times, optimizing storage and performance.

  • Structure:

    IFC organizes projects hierarchically using named components with unique identifiers, enabling complex project management.

  • BIM:

    As a BIM-native (Building Information Modeling) format, IFC stores building information like properties, constraints, and relationships alongside geometry.

IFC File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application support IFC format, allowing you to import and export IFC models seamlessly. You can edit custom properties of IFC geometries and convert them to various 3D file formats. However please note that some IFC-specific features might not be fully supported in other formats and could be lost during conversion.
