  • --convert: File to convert. Formats found to be supported: com.apple.scenekit.scene (scn), com.apple.scenekit.scene.zip (scnz), com.apple.scenekit.particlesystem (.scnp), org.khronos.collada.digital-asset-exchange (.dae), c3d, bplist
  • --format: Format to convert to. Formats found to be supported: scn, c3d, dae.
  • --output: Destination path and filename.

  • --force-y-up: Some documents use different up axis. When enabled, objects in a scene are converted to the Y-up orientation.
  • --force-interleaved: Because most geometries use more than one geometry source and the GPU typically uses data from multiple sources together, you can achieve better rendering performance for custom geometries by interleaving the vertex data for multiple semantics in the same array.
  • --prefer-compressed-textures: Use this option to prefer KTX, ASTC and PVRTC to other file formats. When enabled, if an image is referenced by a scene and exists within the asset catalog with the same name and the .astc or .pvrtc file extension, the compressed version will be used by SceneKit.
  • --verbose: Always use verbose to get pretty error messages. With --verbose: scntool: error: No file at path /path/to/model/file.scn Same error, without --verbose:
