The choice of a rendering engine significantly impacts the final visual result in the constantly changing world of 3D graphics and animation. Each rendering engine's distinctive features, strengths, and subtleties influence the unique look and feel of produced scenes. However, for 3D artists and content producers, the intrinsic diversity of rendering systems poses a significant obstacle. Maintaining the integrity of the original scene when switching between render engines flawlessly has become increasingly urgent. This thesis offers an innovative Autodesk Maya conversion tool that successfully addresses the issue. This adaptable approach makes converting scenes between supported render engines rapid and straightforward. The combination of cutting-edge technology, a simple user interface, and extensive dictionary files that codify the subtleties of rendering engine properties forms the basis of the application. This technology is an essential part of the toolbox of today's 3D content creators since it enables quick and accurate conversions while empowering artists to make fine tweaks after conversion.
