3D file guide
GLB, OBJ and FBX explained for beginners
Paid My Idea 3D tiers unlock different digital formats. This guide explains the role of common files without promising physical print fulfilment.
File formats
Common digital model formats
OBJ
A widely recognised geometry format often used with separate materials or textures where supported.
FBX
A common creative pipeline format supported by many 3D and game tools where available.
ZIP bundle
A convenience package for multiple supported files, available at Studio level.
STL and printing
STL is often associated with printing, but My Idea 3D does not currently sell physical print fulfilment.
Format upgrade
Starter users can upgrade formats where the generated asset supports it.
My Idea 3D
Digital files first
The file guide is designed to help users choose a digital package. Printing may be a future use case, but the public offer is not a live print checkout.
- Starter: GLB
