Convert SCN to PLY
Convert SCN 3D models to PLY format, edit and optimize 3D models online and free.
The SCN file extension stands for "Scene" and is associated with Caligari trueSpace, a 3D modeling and animation software. SCN files store 3D scenes, including objects, materials, lighting, and animation data. Developed by Caligari Corporation, trueSpace was popular in the 1990s and early 2000s for creating and rendering 3D graphics. Although trueSpace was discontinued in 2009, SCN files remain relevant for accessing and editing legacy 3D projects. These files can be in ASCII or binary format, with ASCII being editable in text editors and binary offering faster loading and saving times.
The Polygon File Format (PLY) is a versatile file format designed for storing 3D polygonal models. It originated at Stanford University in the mid-1990s to support the Stanford 3D Scanning Repository project. The primary purpose of PLY is to efficiently represent and exchange three-dimensional data, including vertex coordinates, colors, and normals. Its flexibility makes it valuable for various applications such as 3D scanning, computer graphics, and 3D printing. PLY files can store both ASCII and binary data, making them adaptable for diverse processing needs within computer technology.
Choose a SCN 3D model and upload it to the converter.
Check the preview and configure SCN to PLY tools before proceeding.
Once the PLY process is finished, the file will be ready for download.
With Vertopal CLI installed, you can convert SCN 3D model directly into PLY 3D model.
