Extract text from Game Maker models (GMMOD)
To convert GMMOD 3D models to another format, you need GameMaker or other 3D software.
To convert other file formats to the "Legacy Model Script" file type, you need software like GameMaker or a similar tool.
The .gmmod file type is a legacy 3D model format primarily associated with older versions of GameMaker (specifically version 6 through Studio 1.4). Unlike standard 3D files that store geometry as vertices and faces, .gmmod files often contain a text-based list of d3d_ drawing commands (scripts) used by the GameMaker engine to construct models at runtime.
This format presents significant friction for modern developers: it is obsolete in current versions of GameMaker (GMS2 and later), which deprecated the d3d_ function library. Furthermore, because it is a proprietary scripting format rather than a standard mesh, it cannot be opened directly in industry-standard tools like Blender, Autodesk Maya, or typical 3D viewers. To use these assets in modern game engines or editing software, users must convert them into a universal interchange format like OBJ or a vertex buffer compatible with modern rendering pipelines.
Convert.Guru analyzes your GMMOD file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted ZIP, GB1, GMR and GM6 files.
If you want to convert GMMOD file to OBJ, FBX, DAE, 3DS, MAX, BLEND, MA, MB, C4D, STL, PLY or WRL, you can use GameMaker or similar software from the "Game Maker 3D Model" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DWG, DAE, X3D, IGES, WRL, JT, SKP, 3DS, 3DM, OBJ, STEP or FBX files to GMMOD, try GameMaker or another comparable tool in the "Game Maker 3D Model" 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 GMMOD converter.
