## 3D Models

For this type of asset, you can:

* Convert the models to different file formats (fbx, glb, glft, obj, stl, usdz, and more).
* Compress the models using Standard Draco or the [echo3D Ultimate Compression](https://www.echo3d.com/cloud/3d-model-compression-optimization)
* Compress the models to poly-reduced versions
* Compress the model's textures&#x20;
* Rescale the model to other sizes
* Upload compressed versions directly to the platform or download the new model

#### Texture Compression

Each of an asset's textures can be compressed by clicking the "Compress Texture" toggle switch in the Texture Compress section. The following settings are also available to control how the texture is compressed:

* Format: Jpeg, Png, WebP, Ktx2
* Resolution: 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048, 4096x4096
* Quality: 0-100%

The "Compressed Size" and "Total GLB File Size" will show an estimate of the final post-compression sizes.&#x20;

To compress multiple textures at once, simply select a different Material or Texture from the dropdown, and also click the  "Compress Texture" toggle switch for it. To generate the model with these compressed textures, click the blue "Compress" button at the bottom of the section.&#x20;
