The files that comprise of the OBJ file format holds the 3D object files that are generated computer drawing programs. These files normally have 3D coordinates, texture maps, and other kinds of 3D object data. Numerous 3D graphic programs make use of the OBJ file format.
Computer science object files generally make use of the OBJ format. These files comprise a compilation of sequences that hold imperative instructions regarding how the host machine will accomplish a particular task. There may be other metadata files that the OBJ file format is accompanying.
In addition to the problem described above, i.e. the lack of the appropriate application to support the .OBJ file, there may be several reasons that cause problems with opening and operation of the data format:
A quite common problem is the lack of application in the appropriate version. Even if you have an application, with the help of which you should open the .OBJ file, you may have a problem with it because of its version. Perhaps in previous versions the application has not yet supported the .OBJ file, so download the update and check again.
If you have already installed the appropriate application, and it is the correct version, the file may not open correctly, because the operating system does not have information that this program supports the file. So you need to "show" which program the computer should use. To do this:
It also happens that the file you want to open is corrupt and therefore there is no such possibility. In this situation, you should find its different version, or ask a person from whom you got, to send it again.
There may be several reasons why you cannot open the file with .OBJ extension. Directly on this website you can find a solution of the most common problem with the .OBJ file – that you do not have on your computer the appropriate program to open the file.
