Check our videoThe DGN file format, developed by Bentley Systems, it is mainly used for storing 2D and 3D design data in engineering and architectural projects. It is supported by Bentley's MicroStation software and other CAD applications like AutoCAD through plugins, enabling cross-platform compatibility. The format features a structured, binary-based design with advanced capabilities such as layering, reference files, and support for metadata, making it suitable for complex, large-scale projects.
The 3DS file format is a legacy 3D model format developed by Autodesk for storing 3D geometry, textures, lighting, and animation data, widely used in 3D modeling and rendering. It is supported by various 3D software applications, including Autodesk 3ds Max, Blender, and other tools for game development, animation, and visualization. The format uses a chunk-based binary structure, allowing for efficient storage and retrieval of complex 3D scenes, though it lacks support for modern features like advanced shaders or high-precision geometry.
You can also convert DGN into many other file formats. Please see the complete list below.
