What is a MAX file?
MAX is the proprietary scene file format for Autodesk 3ds Max, a widely used 3D modeling and animation software. It stores complete scene data, including models, lights, cameras, animations, and plugin-specific information.
Because of its complexity and integration with 3ds Max plugins, MAX files are best used and edited within 3ds Max itself. They are commonly found in game development, architecture, and film production workflows.
How to open MAX files
MAX files can only be opened reliably in Autodesk 3ds Max, as they may contain proprietary data and plugin references. Export options within 3ds Max allow conversion to FBX, OBJ, or STL.
AnyConv can help convert MAX files if you don’t have access to 3ds Max, but results may vary depending on complexity.
