Free Online ASE to OBJ Converter

You can use our ASE to OBJ conversion tool to quickly and easily convert your 3D model files for free. You may upload up to 20 files at one time, and our batch ASE to OBJ converter will process each 3D model and present you with a download link for each file once completed.

Select File(s)

Or drag and drop your files here to upload.
A maximum of 20 files can be uploaded at once.

Please note: Your ASE file, once uploaded to our server, will be deleted 15 minutes after upload, so please download your converted ASE file before this time.

Our 3D model ASE to OBJ tool will load your ASE file and, where supported, attempt to extract all the relevant 3D features, such as geometry, textures, and animations. To access the 3D conversion configuration options, click the button when you have selected your files. The current options support the ability to voxelize your 3D model and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I convert my ASE file to OBJ?

First, click the "Upload..." button and select your ASE file to upload. Your ASE file will be uploaded to our servers. When the ASE to OBJ conversion has completed, you can download your OBJ file right away.

How long does it take to convert my ASE to OBJ?

We aim to process all ASE to OBJ conversions as quickly as possible; this usually takes around 5 seconds; however, this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.

How accurate is the ASE to OBJ conversion?

We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development, with new features being added every week.

How does converting ASE to OBJ work?

In order to successfully convert an ASE formatted file to the OBJ format, our converter tools will perform several initial checks to ensure the file provided is indeed an ASE file. There are many files out there where the file type extension does not match the data contained within the file. Along with these file type checks, our tools will do additional checks to ensure the file is correctly formatted to match the provided file type. There are many tools out there that do not always create ASE files to the exact specification.

Take your ASE file

The ASE file format is a text-based format, meaning its contents are human-readable, making ASE files easy to edit in simple text editors. Within this text-based format are the core elements that make up the 3D model, including vertices, faces, and more. To ensure efficient conversions, our tool will check all data that is contained within the ASE file and remove any information that is duplicated. This not only ensures the conversion completes more quickly, but also the generated OBJ file size is smaller.

Convert the data from ASE to OBJ

Now that the data from the ASE file has been processed, our tool can apply any conversion specified options, such as enabling Voxel mode, and with these applied, prepare the data to be converted to the final OBJ file format. Part of this process ensures checking the capabilities of the OBJ format and removing any data that cannot be represented.

Save to the OBJ format

At this point, the ASE to OBJ conversion tool will have the 3D model in a state that is ready to be transferred to the OBJ format. Our tool creates the OBJ file, ensuring all the model data is present and is formatted to match the OBJ file specification to ensure the file opens in compatible OBJ file editors.

File format information for ASE and OBJ

The ASE format is a text-based 3D modelling format used by 3ds Max software as a means of exporting complex 3D scenes and all their components, such as mesh, textures, lighting, and more.

ASE files can become fairly large due to the data being stored as ASCII text; however, being human-readable files makes them easy to apply post-export edits.

3ds Max can export ASE files, other 3D modelling software such as Blender can read and display ASE files.

ASE Converter Capabilities

Our ASE 3D Model/Mesh tool does not support any colour material data contained within ASE files, so the converted file will not contain any colour information.

The OBJ file format is a 3D graphics file format used to define complex 3D models, including geometry, materials, and textures. OBJ files are text files, making them human-readable and easy to modify by hand. The downside to this ease of readability is that the files can become rather large when dealing with large or complex 3D models.

As mentioned, the OBJ format stores not only 3D model geometry but also materials and textures. These materials are usually defined in a separate file with the MTL file extension and specify geometry rendering details such as diffuse and specular colour, transparency, and much more.

The OBJ material file can also reference external texture files. These are usually JPEG or PNG files; however, these can be older formats, such as TGA. Where materials are used, the OBJ file will also contain material names preceding the geometry faces they should be applied to. If textures are referenced, the geometry will also contain texture coordinates (UV) for each vertex.

OBJ Converter Capabilities

Our 3D conversion tool does not support colour or material information in OBJ files, so your file will not contain any colour information.

Information for converting from ASE to OBJ

Your ASE file will be converted to a OBJ file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our ASE 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals, and relevant material information. Our tool will not attempt to transfer any colour information if it is present in your ASE file; your final 3D model will contain only geometry data.
