FAQ
PI to OBJ Conversion
What are PI files?
PI is an obsolete file format associated with Blazing Paddles, a graphics program created for Commodore computers. This brand was highly popular in the 1980s, with the Commodore 64 model being the best-selling home computer worldwide until this day. The PI extension can also be attached to images created or edited using Degas or Degas Elite, two image processing programs also released in the 1980s, but for Atari computers.
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.
