Format Conversion Tips
Conversion Recommendations
- Convert from GLTF to GLB for production deployment
- Use Blender's GLB export with "Apply Modifiers" enabled
- Compress textures to JPEG for smaller file sizes (RGB channels)
- Use PNG only for textures with transparency (alpha channel)

Best Practices for GLB
✅ Do:
- Keep textures under 2048x2048 for better web performance
- Use power-of-two texture dimensions (512, 1024, 2048)
- Optimize models with tools like gltf-pipeline for smaller file sizes
- Embed textures for easier deployment and faster loading
- Use Draco compression for complex geometry
⚠️ Watch Out For:
- Missing textures: Ensure all textures are embedded or properly referenced
- Large file size: Use texture compression and Draco geometry compression
- Animation issues: Check that animations are properly exported from source software
