Convert Game 3D models and backups (BOB) online for free
The converter easily converts your BOB 3D models to various formats - free and online. No Blender or or other 3D software needed.
To convert other file formats to the "Game 3D Model Asset" file type, you need software like Blender or a similar tool.
The .BOB file extension handles several highly specialized data types, most commonly functioning as a Binary Object Bundle for 3D game models (like in the game BombSquad) or as compiled 3D assets for EGOSOFT's X-Universe games. Alternatively, the extension serves as a compressed backup archive (often standard ZIP or GZIP based) for business platforms like Exact Globe, SAP BusinessObjects, or photobook software like Bob Books Designer.
Opening these files natively is notoriously difficult. Game engine .BOB files are proprietary binary blobs that require specific plugins or reverse-engineering tools to view in 3D suites like Blender. Business backup variations are trapped in software-specific ecosystems that demand expensive enterprise licenses or outdated software installations just to restore and read the underlying data.
Converting .BOB files is essential for extracting usable assets or recovering legacy data. For 3D workflows, convert .BOB to universal formats like OBJ or FBX for editing, or glTF for web viewing. If the file is a business backup or photobook archive, extracting the contents to standard ZIP or converting internal reports to PDF is the best practical workaround. Just drag and drop your file here to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software on convert.guru.
Use Convert.Guru to open and convert your BOB file.
Users also converted BBCD, CAD, RPT, 43, GLTF and ASCII files.
If you want to convert BOB file to DWG, DXF, DGN, RVT, RFA, SKP, 3DM, STEP, IGES, SAT, X_T or X_B, you can use Blender or similar software from the "Game 3D Model Data" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert SLDASM, DGN, PRT, IAM, X_B, CATPRODUCT, SLDPRT, RVT, ASM, DWG, CATPART or DXF files to BOB, try Blender or another comparable tool in the "Game 3D Model Data" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our BOB converter.
