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.
OFF File Format - 3D Object File for Polygon Meshes
The OFF (Object File Format) is a simple, ASCII-based 3D file format used for representing polygonal geometry in a lightweight, non-proprietary structure. Designed for academic and development use, the OFF format efficiently stores 3D model data using only vertices, faces, and optional edge information - ideal for geometry-focused workflows without material or texture metadata.
OFF File Features
- Editable ASCII Structure: OFF files are plain text, easily viewable and editable in any standard text editor, making them perfect for manual modeling or debugging.
- Supports Polygonal Geometry: Store 3D shapes using triangle meshes, quadrilaterals, or general polygons. Each face is defined by a list of vertex indices, allowing flexible model design.
- Lightweight and Minimal: Unlike complex CAD formats, OFF excludes materials, textures, and metadata, focusing purely on geometric structure for fast, efficient modeling.
Convert OFF Files to Other 3D Formats
Our 3D conversion tools make working with OFF files fast and flexible. Autoconverter enables direct conversion of OFF mesh models to popular formats such as STL, OBJ, SKP (SketchUp), and PLY - preserving polygonal integrity throughout. For advanced workflows, Autoshaper can convert OFF files into NURBS-based formats like STEP, IGES, and BREP, ideal for CAD software and precision manufacturing.
