Convert OBP to another file type

To convert OBP object presets to another format, you need Bryce 3D or other 3D software.

Convert a file to OBP

To convert other file formats to the "3D Object Preset" file type, you need software like Bryce 3D or a similar tool.


About OBP files

The .obp file extension is primarily used for 3D Object Presets in modeling software like Bryce 3D and Cheetah3D. These files store intricate 3D models, textures, and scene settings required to render digital environments. Alternatively, .obp files serve as project data for the OpenScan 3D scanner, or as add-on packages for the open-source openBVE train simulator.

The major disadvantage of .obp 3D files is their proprietary and closed nature. They are not natively supported by web browsers, operating systems, or modern game engines like Unity. Users must typically purchase or install specific, legacy software to open them, making sharing with clients or collaborators frustrating.

To work across different platforms, users need to convert .obp files to universal 3D formats like OBJ, STL, or FBX. For openBVE add-ons, the target format is simply a ZIP archive, which allows users to extract internal sounds and textures. However, because 3D preset files are closed formats, standard online converters fail to parse their binary data. Often, only the original rendering software can properly read or export the 3D meshes.

Despite these limitations, convert.guru provides a pragmatic workaround. Drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. Our analyzer will inspect the file header to determine if it is a 3D model, a scanner project, or a disguised ZIP archive. If our analysis detects standard embedded structures, we will extract the text, display internal assets, and facilitate viewing or conversion.

Convert.Guru analyzes your OBP file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted ODP, ODT, OBJ, STL, NFF, BSK and TME files.


FAQ

If you want to convert OBP file to OBJ, FBX, DAE, 3DS, MAX, BLEND, MA, MB, C4D, STL, PLY or WRL, you can use Bryce 3D or similar software from the "3D Object Storage & Add-ons" 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 OBP, try Bryce 3D or another comparable tool in the "3D Object Storage & Add-ons" category.



The OBP Converter Story

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 OBP converter.
