FAQ
SBSAR to SHP Conversion
What are SBSAR files?
SBSAR (Substance Archive) is a file with a ready-to-use material for 3D graphics, such as brick, wood, metal, fabric, or concrete. Instead of storing a fixed set of pictures, it holds a recipe that generates the surface textures on demand, so the artist can change the color, the amount of wear and dirt, or the pattern with simple sliders and choose the resolution. The files are tiny compared with sets of image textures, and they are used in games, films, and product visualization. They are created in Adobe Substance 3D software and opened in many 3D programs and game engines.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
