CloudCompare forum

Hello Daniel,

Greetings,
I am a regular user of cloud compare and really happy, recently I am working with UAV dataset (specifically 3D Models *.obj format).
I have to upload a 3D-Model over web platform which accepts *gltf or *glb formats, although there are few software which converts the *.obj to *.gltf. But, they are not really dependable or convenient, as they were crashing in between or exporting the model without the texture.

Please suggest or recommend something on this.

Hum, this is the first time I heard about this format. The specifications are not that 'simple' (see https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF/bl ... cification).

Maybe if we found a C++ library to ease the creation of gdb files it could be possible. And it would be good to get some more interest feedback from users (especially since CloudCompare is not a meshing tool). By the way isn't this format supported by Meshlab?

Hello Daniel,
Thanks for the reply.
No, Meshlab doesn't support these formats. But, yes I found this conversion in Blender.
It would be great to have this upgrade in upcoming cloud compare versions :)
Thank you.

You can also use the online GLTF/GLB 2.0 converter at http://modelconverter.com to convert from Wavefront OBJ to GLTF. Quick and pretty easy to use and handle large OBJ files.
