FAQ
LWO to OBJ Conversion
What are LWO files?
LWO is a vector format associated with LightWave, a program for creating and rendering 3D images and animation. LWO images store objects as meshes, including descriptions of points, polygons and surfaces, as well as colors, transparency, shades, textures and several other attributes. LightWave was initially launched in the 1990s and has since become a popular 3D graphics program, used in several industries, such as television, film, advertising, video games development or product design.
What are OBJ files?
OBJ is a 3D model format created by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer software and now supported by almost every 3D application, which makes it one of the most common formats for exchanging models. A file of this type is plain text that describes the shape of an object: the coordinates of its vertices, the texture coordinates used for UV mapping, the surface normals, and the faces that join them into polygons. Named groups divide a model into separate parts. Colors and materials are not stored in the file itself but in a separate .mtl file that it refers to, with the texture images kept alongside. The format holds a static model only, with no animation, bones, or lights.
