How to Export .obj from Maya

Oct 19, 2024

If you're a 3D designer or artist using Maya, you may often need to export your 3D models to use them in other 3D software or game engines. One of the most common file formats for this purpose is the .obj file format. In this article, we'll guide you through the process of exporting .obj files from Maya.

Step 1: Open your 3D model in Maya

Before you can export your 3D model as a .obj file, you need to have it open in Maya. Make sure that your model is complete and ready for export.

Step 2: Select the 3D model

Once your 3D model is ready, select it in the Maya viewport. You can select the entire model or specific components depending on your requirements.

Step 3: Navigate to File > Export Selection

With your 3D model selected, navigate to the 'File' menu at the top of the Maya interface. From the drop-down menu, choose 'Export Selection'.

Step 4: Choose .obj as the file format

After selecting 'Export Selection', a window will appear where you can specify the export settings. In the 'File Name' field, enter the desired name for your .obj file. Then, in the 'Files of Type' dropdown menu, choose 'Wavefront OBJ (*.obj)' as the file format.

Step 5: Set export options

Before exporting, you can further customize the export settings by clicking on the 'Options' button in the export window. Here, you can adjust various options such as smoothing angles, materials, and textures.

Step 6: Click 'Export' to save the .obj file

Once you've configured the export settings, click the 'Export' button in the export window to save your 3D model as a .obj file. Your .obj file is now ready to be used in other 3D software or game engines.

By following these simple steps, you can easily export your 3D models in .obj format from Maya, allowing you to seamlessly integrate them into your workflow with other 3D software or game development platforms. Whether you're creating assets for games, animations, or visualizations, knowing how to export .obj files from Maya is an essential skill for 3D designers and artists.
