OBJ to FBX
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to the OBJ and FBX interoperability and exchange that can help you with the OBJ to FBX conversion.
- Convert FBX to OBJ file format
- Convert 3D mesh files in the batch mode
- Autoconverter Uses Vertex Normals to Display Smooth Meshes
- Convert Solid Meshes to Faceted BREP in STEP File
- Convert Filmbox FBX file to different file version
- Explode component instances into mesh groups
OBJ File
OBJ (Alias Wavefront Object) is a text-based file format for 3D geometry objects which is very popular and widely supported by many 3D software programs. The OBJ file format is capable of storing named group objects, surface materials with transparent colors and texture images, and quads or triangles as geometry primitives. However, our Autoconverter software will simplify every OBJ quad primitive with two triangles as only triangular facets are supported during the OBJ file conversion. It's important to mention that due to a textual format OBJ files will always be much bigger than the binary files, for example 3DS (3D Studio) or SKP (SketchUp).
FBX Filmbox File
FBX (Filmbox) is a proprietary file format developed by Kaydara and now owned by Autodesk, a leading company in 3D software products. FBX file format can store transparent colors, texture images, reusable geometry components, assembly structures and even model animation data. However, our FBX conversion software, Autoconverter and Autoshaper, do not support animation frames yet. To read and write Filmbox FBX files we use the official FBX SDK from Autodesk.
