OBJ Alias Wavefront Object File

A text-based file format, open standard for storing and exchanging 3D geometry data, widely used across 3D modeling, animation, and rendering software. Unlike binary formats, OBJ files store mesh data in human-readable text, making them highly compatible but less storage-efficient.

Main Benefits and Features

  • Named Group Objects:

    OBJ files can store multiple objects with different names in a single file, which can be useful for organizing complex 3D scenes.
  • Surface Materials:

    The OBJ file format supports surface materials with transparent colors and texture images, providing more realistic and detailed 3D models.
  • Geometry Primitives:

    OBJ files can store geometry primitives in the form of quads or triangles. However, during the OBJ file conversion using our converters, any quad primitives will be simplified into two triangles, as only triangular facets are supported.
  • OBJ File Size:

    Due to its textual format, OBJ files tend to have larger sizes compared to binary file formats like 3DS (3D Studio) or SKP (SketchUp). This means that OBJ files may take longer to load or transfer, and may require more storage space.

OBJ File Conversion

Autoconverter is the best OBJ file converter due to its high accuracy, fast processing speed, and wide 3D format support. It ensures lossless conversions while preserving model details, offering a user-friendly interface for seamless file conversion. If you need to handle OBJ files in AutoCAD, you can use our Automesher Application, which allows for seamless import and export of OBJ files directly in your CAD environment.


X Direct3D File

Developed by Microsoft in 1995 as part of DirectX for Windows 95, this format stores 3D mesh geometry along with materials and textures. It served as the original interchange format for DirectX’s graphics and multimedia APIs.

Key Features of X

  • Origin:

    Developed by Microsoft in 1995 as part of DirectX.
  • Geometry:

    Stores 3D mesh data including vertices, faces, and normals.
  • Animation:

    Supports skeletal animation with bone hierarchies and skinning weights.
  • UV Mapping:

    Includes texture coordinate data for applied images.

X File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application enable effortless conversion of X files to your native 3D environment, including STL, OBJ, 3DM, SKP, STEP, and other industry-standard formats to bridge DirectX assets with CAD, 3D printing, and computational design workflows. Need to modernize legacy X files? Our X file converters ensure smooth transitions to contemporary workflows.
