What is a LWO file?
LWO (LightWave Object) is the native 3D model format used by LightWave 3D, a professional modeling and animation package. It stores 3D geometry, surface properties, UV maps, and material settings.
LWO was known for its advanced rendering features and was used in television, film, and game development. Although LightWave has declined in popularity, the format is still supported by various 3D tools and importers.
How to open LWO files
LWO files can be opened with LightWave 3D, and many modern 3D programs support them via plugins or importers, including Blender and Cinema 4D.
Use AnyConv to convert LWO to OBJ, FBX, or STL if your modeling tool does not support LWO directly.

What is a OBJ file?
OBJ is a widely used 3D model format developed by Wavefront Technologies. It stores geometry data such as vertex positions, UV coordinates, normals, and polygonal faces in a plain-text format.
OBJ is supported by virtually every 3D software application and is commonly used for exchanging models between different programs. It may be accompanied by an MTL file containing material definitions.
How to open OBJ files
OBJ files can be opened in nearly any 3D modeling software, including Blender, Maya, 3ds Max, and SketchUp. They are ideal for model exchange across different platforms.
Use AnyConv to convert OBJ files to STL, FBX, or GLTF for compatibility with specific tools or 3D printers.
