LWO LightWave 3D File

The native file format for the LightWave 3D modeling, animation, and rendering computer software. LightWave 3D is a powerful and comprehensive tool that allows you to create stunning 3D graphics and animations for various purposes, such as games, films, or visual effects. Here are some of the key features and benefits of LWO:

  • High-Quality and Realistic 3D Models: LWO is a professional and versatile format for 3D modeling and animation, as it can capture the details and complexity of 3D models and scenes. LWO can store various types of 3D meshes, such as polygons, subdivision surfaces, or metaballs. LWO can also store various types of material information, such as texture images, color, reflectivity, transparency, and more. These properties can enhance the appearance and realism of the 3D models and animations.
  • LWO File Converters: Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow for the seamless import of 3D mesh geometry, along with assigned material information, from LWO files. This enables you to convert any LWO object model into your preferred file format for further editing in your default 3D software. You can choose from various formats, such as PLY, STL, OBJ, SKP, CityJSON, and others.

DWG 2D/3D CAD Drawing

A binary file format that stores CAD drawings and models, created by Autodesk for AutoCAD. Some of the benefits and features of DWG files are:

  • Compatibility: DWG files are compatible with other software packages, such as ZWCAD, BricsCAD, and IntelliCAD, which also support the DWG format. This makes DWG files the industry standard in CAD.
  • DWG Drawing Converters: DWG drawings can be easily converted into various 3D and GIS file formats, such as OBJ, STL, DXF, KML, and KMZ, using our add-ons, Automesher Application and Automapki Application. This enables you to share your AutoCAD designs with different platforms and applications.
