| Extension | LWO |
| Full Name | LightWave Object File |
| Type | 3D Model |
| Mime Type | application/octet-stream |
| Format | Binary |
Created for the LightWave 3D modeling software, the LWO file format is designed to store complex 3D scenes in a fast and easy-to-process manner. The content stored includes 3D models, their associated materials and textures, and other data to represent the final 3D scene.
The 3D data is stored within the LWO file in binary form. The data consists of the 3D objects that make up the LightWave scene, including camera properties, 3D object geometry, including their vertices, faces, and texture coordinates where appropriate. The binary format ensures LWO files remain compact and size-efficient.
Support for importing LWO files can be found in some 3D editing applications; however, for best results, it is recommended to edit LWO files directly within the LightWave 3D software.
LWO Converter Capabilities
Our LWO 3D Model/Mesh tool does not support any color material data contained within LWO files, so the converted file will not contain any color information.
| Extension | SKP |
| Full Name | SketchUp |
| Type | 3D Model |
| Mime Type | application/octet-stream |
| Format | Binary |
A SKP file is the native file format for the popular SketchUp 3D modeling application. SketchUp is a growing platform, popular with industrial architechs and 3D design enthusiasts alike who like the ease with which complex 3D models can be produced.
The SKP format is capable of storing complex 3D models and their associated geometric data, such as vertices, edges, faces, materials, and much more. The format is well supported, and it receives updates containing new features on a regular basis.
Due to its popularity, the SKP format is supported by many 3D modeling applications via an import option, and where an import option may be missing, our own SKP conversion tools can convert to and from the most popular 3D formats.
SKP Converter Capabilities
Our 3D conversion tool does not support color or material information in SKP files, so your file will not contain any color information.
