Convert 3D point clouds (XYZ) online for free
The converter easily converts your XYZ point clouds to various formats - free and online. No RPG Maker or or other Game software needed.
To convert other file formats to the "Encrypted Asset Archive" file type, you need software like RPG Maker or a similar tool.
The .xyz file extension serves two completely different, highly specific functions. Primarily, it acts as an encrypted resource container for RPG Maker MV and RPG Maker MZ. Game developers use this format to obfuscate standard assets - like images and audio - preventing players from easily copying or ripping them. Alternatively, in surveying and computational chemistry, an .xyz file is an uncompressed ASCII text file storing Cartesian coordinates (X, Y, Z) for 3D point clouds, digital elevation models, or molecular structures, often analyzed using Jmol or Open Babel.
Both formats suffer from severe usability limitations. The RPG Maker .xyz file is proprietary and locked; it cannot be opened by standard media players or image editors without the specific decryption key embedded in the game's code. This creates a massive headache when developers lose their original, unencrypted project files. Meanwhile, the 3D point cloud .xyz format is notoriously inefficient. Because it stores raw text data without compression, point cloud files frequently exceed tens of gigabytes, crashing standard text editors and slowing down 3D workflows.
To solve these problems, conversion is strictly necessary. For recovering game assets, you must decrypt and convert .xyz back to its original format, typically PNG for sprites or OGG for audio tracks. For 3D point clouds, convert .xyz to optimized binary formats like PLY, LAS, or OBJ for efficient rendering and editing in specialized software like MeshLab or CloudCompare. Drag and drop your .xyz file to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software.

If you want to convert XYZ file to WEBP, CUR or PSB, you can use RPG Maker or similar software from the "Encrypted Game Resource Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert RAW, PNG, AI, NEF, PSB, DNG, SVG, GIF, EPS, JPG, ARW or PDF files to XYZ, try RPG Maker or another comparable tool in the "Encrypted Game Resource Storage" 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 XYZ converter.
