LWO to PLY
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to LWO and PLY interoperability and exchange that could help you with the LWO to PLY conversion.
LWO File
LWO (LightWave 3D Object) file is the native file format for LightWave 3D modeling, animation and rendering computer software. Using our Autoconverter and Automesher Application specialised LWO conversion software you can import 3D mesh geometry together with the assigned material information including the material texture images and convert any LWO object model into your favorite file format for further edition. The LWO is a binary file format therefore the LWO file size will always be smaller compared with the ASCII text file formats.
PLY File
PLY (Polygon File Format or Stanford Triangle Format) is a file format developed to store three dimensional triangles with additional properties e.g. color, normals, transparency or texture coordinates. However, Autoconverter our PLY file converter can only read and write mesh geometry without the material properties, as in the PLY file they can vary between triangle vertices. You can save PLY files in a binary or ASCII text file format, with the preference for the binary version due to a significant PLY file size saving.
