Free Online WRL to FBX Converter

You can use our WRL to FBX 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 WRL to FBX 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 WRL file, once uploaded to our server, will be deleted 15 minutes after upload, so please download your converted WRL file before this time.

Our 3D model WRL to FBX tool will load your WRL 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 WRL file to FBX?

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

How long does it take to convert my WRL to FBX?

We aim to process all WRL to FBX 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 WRL to FBX 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 WRL to FBX work?

In order to successfully convert an WRL formatted file to the FBX format, our converter tools will perform several initial checks to ensure the file provided is indeed an WRL 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 WRL files to the exact specification.

Take your WRL file

The WRL file format is a text-based format, meaning its contents are human-readable, making WRL 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 WRL file and remove any information that is duplicated. This not only ensures the conversion completes more quickly, but also the generated FBX file size is smaller.

Convert the data from WRL to FBX

Now that the data from the WRL 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 FBX file format. Part of this process ensures checking the capabilities of the FBX format and removing any data that cannot be represented.

Save to the FBX format

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

File format information for WRL and FBX

Extension	WRL
Full Name	Virtual Reality Modeling Language
Type	3D Model
Mime Type	model/vrml x-world/x-vrml application/x-cc3d
Format	Text
Opens With	MeshLab

The WRL (or VRML) file format is used to store 3D models and their environments in a simple-to-edit, plain text format. The WRL format has been around since the 1990s and has gained widespread support as a convenient 3D graphics format.

The 3D data is stored within the file in a hierarchical format, allowing 3D objects to be grouped and manipulated together. The format also allows 3D objects to be assigned unique IDs, allowing them to be referenced elsewhere in the same document, allowing the same 3D model to be used multiple times while only defining its vertices, faces, and other 3D data once.

While the format still enjoys support within many 3D editing applications, the WRL format has been officially superseded by the XML-based X3D format, which comes with more features and, with its use of the standard XML format, more support amongst 3D modelling applications.

FBX files are an open 3D file format developed by Autodesk for use with their Maya and 3Ds Max applications. An FBX file may contain any number of 3D objects, their associated geometry, materials, textures, animations, and more, all within a single convenient package.

The content of an FBX file is a mix of binary and ASCII text, producing a format that is both human-readable and compact. Due to their compact size, ease of use, and widespread support, FBX files are a popular choice for creating 3D animations and are also a staple in the videogame development scene.

The development of the FBX format continues to this day, with new features being included in each release. Along with being used within Autodesk's own editing solutions, FBX files can also be opened and edited in other popular 3D modelling applications, such as Blender.

When converting your WRL to FBX, our tool will attempt to accurately convert any colour or material information.

Information for converting from WRL to FBX

Your WRL file will be converted to a FBX file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our WRL 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals, and relevant material information. As both WRL and FBX support colour material information, our tool will also attempt to convert the colour information.
