Supported 3D File Formats

    Sketchfab supports many 3D file formats, including most of today's popular exchange formats.

    To learn how to upload, visit Uploading 3D Models.

    If your favorite file format is not listed below, you could try converting your file or using one of our native or integrated Exporters, including Blender, 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, Substance Painter, and many more!

    You could even upload a compressed archive folder with your file(s) in it, such as ZIP, RAR, and 7z.

    .obj*

    Alias Wavefront
    .blend Blender
    .fbx Autodesk Filmbox, FBX

    *OBJ files should almost always come with an MTL material library file. Both should be uploaded together, along with any textures. See Uploading 3D Models for more details.
