FAQ
CSM to OBJ Conversion
What are CSM files?
CSM is a file format associated with Character Studio, a 3D animation tool which is part of Autodesk's 3DS Max — one of the most popular software used for creating 3D models, animation and rendering. CSM files contain data related to the position of a 3D biped character, and can be used by professionals in the game developing industry, advertising, film etc.
What are OBJ files?
OBJ is a 3D model format created by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer software and now supported by almost every 3D application, which makes it one of the most common formats for exchanging models. A file of this type is plain text that describes the shape of an object: the coordinates of its vertices, the texture coordinates used for UV mapping, the surface normals, and the faces that join them into polygons. Named groups divide a model into separate parts. Colors and materials are not stored in the file itself but in a separate .mtl file that it refers to, with the texture images kept alongside. The format holds a static model only, with no animation, bones, or lights.
