3DS 3D Format 3DS Converter
3D Studio (3DS) is a legacy file format used by Autodesk’s 3ds Max 3D modelling software. It was used in the 1990s before being replaced by Autodesk’s MAX format in 1996. Although MAX is the newer format, you can still open and edit 3DS files through Autodesk 3ds Max and Blender. With them, you can store complete 3D scenes and models, and export the files to transfer the contents between different software with little difficulty.
Autodesk 3ds Max is one of the industry standards for 3D models and scenes, so the 3DS file format has a wide range of use cases, from drawing up architectural schematics to building levels for a video game. And while 3DS files are now superseded by the MAX files, you’ll still come across them frequently if you’re working with a large archive of 3D files.

USD 3D Format
The Universal Scene Description (USD) file format is an open-source 3D format created by Pixar for handling scene data for films, animations, and special effects. It was designed to manage massive, complex scene data across the entire production pipeline, with useful features for collaboration and non-destructive editing. The USD format supports both ASCII and binary encoding, with the ASCII version ideal for human readability, and the binary format best when you need compact files that are space-efficient for storage and sharing.
USD files are supported by many programs, including Houdini, Blender, Unreal Engine, Maya, and Apple AR tools. They can be used on Windows, macOS and Linux, and their wide compatibility makes them ideal for the collaborative projects they were designed for. This format does have a very high learning curve, however, so using an easier-to-parse format may be better if you’re not in the VFX business.
