If you've been using Meshroom for photogrammetry and 3D modeling, you may be wondering how to export your finished models as OBJ files. OBJ is a widely supported file format for 3D models, making it easy to share and use your creations in other 3D software. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to export Meshroom as OBJ:
1. Open your project in Meshroom and make sure your model is fully reconstructed and textured.
2. In the 'Workflow' tab, find the 'Texture' node and click on it to select it.
3. On the right-hand side, you'll see the 'Output' section. Under 'Output Mesh', make sure 'Obj' is selected as the file format.
4. Choose the desired output location and filename for your OBJ file. You can also adjust the resolution and other settings if needed.
5. Once you have set everything up, click on 'Compute' to start the export process.
6. Meshroom will start generating the OBJ file based on your model and texture data. This process may take some time, depending on the complexity of your model and the settings you have chosen.
7. Once the export process is complete, you can find your OBJ file in the specified output location.
Now that you have successfully exported your model from Meshroom as an OBJ file, you can easily use it in other 3D software or share it with others. OBJ files are compatible with a wide range of 3D modeling and rendering software, making it a versatile choice for sharing and collaborating on 3D projects.
Remember that while OBJ is a popular and widely supported file format, it may not preserve all the intricate details and properties of your original Meshroom project. When working with your exported OBJ file in other software, you may need to make adjustments and refinements to fine-tune the final appearance of your 3D model.
By following these steps, you can effectively export your 3D models from Meshroom as OBJ files and integrate them into your 3D workflow with ease. Whether you're a 3D artist, designer, or hobbyist, mastering the process of exporting OBJ files from Meshroom will broaden your possibilities for creating and sharing stunning 3D content.
