How to open OBJ file?

What is OBJ file extension?

Files with the OBJ extension were developed by Wavefront Technologies for the Advanced Visualizer package. Although these files are used to represent graphics or 3D models, they are actually just plain text files. The text contained in OBJ files defines the location of all vertices from which the 3D object is built. Sometimes these files contain references to MTL files that contain textures for 3D models. Because the file format is open, it has become commonplace and used by other programs.

We hope we helped you solve the problem with the OBJ file. If you do not know where you can download the application from our list, click on the link (which is the name of the program) - you will find more information there on the location where to download the secure setup version of the required application.
What else may cause problems?
There can be more reasons which determine that you are not able to open the OBJ file (apart from the lack of the proper application installed).
First - the OBJ file may be incorrectly linked (associated) with the application installed to support it. In this case, you need to change this link by yourself. To do this, right-click on the OBJ file # that you want to edit, click "Open with" and then select the program from the list that you have installed. After this operation, the problems with opening the OBJ file should be solved forever.
Second - the file you want to open can simply be damaged. Then, the best solution is to find a new version, or download it again from the same source as before (maybe for some reason in the previous session the download of the OBJ file has not been completed and it cannot be opened properly).
