LWO LightWave 3D LWO File Format

The LWO file format is the native 3D model format used by LightWave 3D, a powerful software suite for 3D modeling, animation, and rendering. Ideal for film, VFX, and game development, LWO files store advanced mesh data, materials, and layered scene elements with high precision.

Key Features of LWO Files

  • Advanced Geometry: Supports polygons, quads, n-gons, subdivision surfaces, and metaball objects.
  • UV Mapping: Stores multiple UV sets for texture mapping and material assignment.
  • Backwards Compatibility: Compatible with earlier LightWave versions, ensuring long-term accessibility.
  • Industry-Ready: Widely used in professional environments for broadcast graphics, video games, and CGI film production.

LWO File Conversion Tools

Autoconverter and Automesher Application offer full support for importing and converting LWO 3D model files into popular formats such as OBJ, STL, PLY, SKP, and CityJSON. These tools retain original geometry, material layers, and texture coordinates, ensuring accurate migration to modern CAD or 3D workflows. Whether you are archiving legacy LightWave projects or integrating with Blender or Unity, our LWO file converters deliver fast, reliable results.


GIF GIF File Format - Graphics Interchange Format

The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is a well-established bitmap image format developed by CompuServe in 1987. Best known for supporting both static images and looping animations, the GIF format remains popular on the web due to its lightweight file sizes, wide browser compatibility, and retro visual charm. Despite being limited to 256 colors, GIF files are still widely used in memes, web graphics, banners, and simple motion sequences.

Core Features of GIF Images

  • LZW Compression: Uses the efficient Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) lossless algorithm, ensuring compact file sizes ideal for fast-loading web content.
  • Indexed Color Palette: Supports up to 256 indexed colors, which reduces image complexity and promotes consistent performance across devices and browsers.
  • Built-in Animation Support: Natively supports multi-frame animations with looping functionality, widely used for social media content, email campaigns, and digital advertising.
