Description

The 3DS format has been a standard 3D format for many years. It has been the native file format for Autodesk's 3D Studio since the days of Microsoft's MS DOS. The age of the format began to show its limitations many years ago and was replaced by Autodesk when 3D Studio Max was launched.

There are, however, still many 3D model files circulating in the 3DS format, and these can be easily converted using our 3DS conversion tools. Some of the limitations of the 3DS file format include: texture names are limited to DOS 8.3 filenames; the maximum number of vertices allowed in the 3D mesh is capped at 65536; and there is no support for directional lighting.

3DS Notes

Currently, our tool supports limited importing of materials and color information from your 3DS file.

Description

The ZIP file is one of the most common types of compressed file types available and is widely used to compress any file type and give great compression results, leading to smaller file sizes. ZIP files were originally released in 1989, and over time, the format has undergone many revisions.

ZIP archives can contain any number of folders and files and can use many different compression algorithms to perform the file compression, though DEFLATE is the most common one in use. The format has built-in support in many operating systems, including Mac OS and Microsoft Windows.
