Managing Projects

SuperSplat supports the .ssproj file format, allowing you to save and reload your work, preserving all settings and animations. This format provides an efficient way to manage projects, share work, and continue editing at a later time.

Features of .ssproj Files​

  • Full Project Save: Stores all relevant project data, including app settings, timeline settings and more.
  • Easy Reloading: Load a saved project file to restore the exact state of your work.
  • Portability: Share .ssproj files with others to collaborate on projects.

Saving a Project​

To save your current work as a .ssproj file:

  • Open the File menu.
  • Select Save As.
  • Choose a location and enter a name for your project.
  • Click Save. Your project will be stored as a .ssproj file.

Loading a Project​

To load a previously saved .ssproj file:

  • Open the File menu.
  • Select Open.
  • Browse to the .ssproj file you wish to open.
  • Click Open. SuperSplat will restore your project to its last saved state.

File Structure​

The .ssproj format is actually a ZIP archive containing:

  • A JSON-based file that stores project-specific metadata, such as app settings and timeline settings.
  • One or more uncompressed .ply files (these are listed in the Scenes panel on load).

Best Practices​

  • Save Regularly: To prevent data loss, save your project frequently.
  • Use Versioning: When working on major changes, save multiple versions of your project to avoid accidental overwrites.
  • Backup Your Files: Store backups of important .ssproj files in a cloud storage service or external drive.

By utilizing the .ssproj format, SuperSplat users can efficiently manage and share their projects, enhancing workflow and collaboration.
