#Import obj object into wings 3d zip file
A 3MF model is basically XML files and textures packed into a zip file with a "3mf" extension. Just to add a little info on some (free) model formats I've used with Unity.ģMF (3D Manufacturing Format) is an open-source 3D object format developed by the 3MF consortium, which was founded by Microsoft.

use what is best supported by the software you're using, both in Export at one end and Import at the other.
The "professional" level of the software doesn't always mean one thing or another either (Modo has very inconsistent FBX support for instance because of the way it's scene data is represented internally). None of which matters inside Unity anyway, because all the data you use is imported to Unity's native format.īut there is no silver bullet, as points out, everyone supports file formats to varying levels of competence, and both FBX and DAE are extremely complex formats.
Obj only stores geometry information and is natively a binary format. The larger file may be saving more information, or just using longer labels. FBX and Collada in ascii are both xml formats. Re: File sizes, don't read "smaller is better". It's still useful and simpler to transport, but it has additional limitations such as no vertex color support in the standard definition (there's an enhanced definition, but fragmentation). That doesn't mean don't use obj, but don't always put FBX (or DAE) over it. I simply trust FBX more, and some of that comes from integrating both SDKs into proprietary software engines. I'm not saying don't use DAE, I'm just saying I've developed a habit of avoiding it through bad experiences. Some people have issues with FBX, but when it's supported correctly it's extremely reliable. Sony started it, then abandoned it to open source caretakers, who then made "bits" of it commercial IIRC. I avoid anything that only exports DAE, it's buggy and unpredictable.

What are the pros and cons of any relevant file types for that matter? What do any of them do differently? TLDR: What distinguishes the different file types? What makes some better for some things and some better for others? Is one just better than all of them in every way, if so then why?Īctual TLDR: What do different 3D model formats do differently? What are there pros and cons of each one?įBX and Collada DAE are both full scene formats, there's no point in comparing them with obj. (Unless everyone uses FBX because everyone's been told to use FBX.) So anyway, why does everyone use FBX and what are it's advantages? I know OBJ must have some disadvantages, but so far it's worked the best for me.
This all got very confusing but I walked away thinking there must be some reason everyone recommends FBX. However, when I took the OBJ file and converted it to FBX via Blender it worker flawlessly, unlike the OBJ to FBX via FBX converter. Even the ones that were other file types then converted to FBX. I also noticed that FBX had scaling issues when imported into Unity. I then converted all these files into FBX using auto desk FBX converter 2013 (because someone told me that Unity just converts non-FBX files into FBX anyway.) Now the results showed that the OBJ file that was converted to FBX was still smaller than the other formats converted to FBX (how ever the standard OBJ file was still the smallest.) Note that this was a small, texture-less, simple model exported from Sketch Up. Well I did some testing on a simple model from Google Sketch Up which revealed that out of all the file type I tested (OBJ, DAE, and FBX) that FBX had the biggest file size followed by DAE and then OBJ with the smallest file size. So I've seen one or two threads on which file type people should use and most people have said to use FBX.
