What is a SMD file?
SMD (Studiomdl Data) is a 3D model format used in Valve’s Source engine and GoldSrc engine for games like Half-Life, Counter-Strike, and Portal. It stores mesh, skeletal, and animation data in a plain-text format.
SMD is mainly used by modders and game developers for rigging and animating characters or props. It is supported by various tools and plugins, especially within Blender and Valve’s development kits.
How to open SMD files
SMD files can be opened and edited using Blender with Valve-specific plugins, as well as tools like Crowbar for compiling into Valve model formats.
AnyConv supports converting SMD files to formats like OBJ or FBX for broader compatibility with 3D modeling tools.

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.
