Create 3D animations with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a LWO (LightWave Object File) 3D model file, and from this, create an animated GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) file that you can then download and share without the need for any complex 3D modeling software.
Our LWO to GIF animation tool includes options to adjust the camera position within the 3D world, set the resolution of the generated GIF file, and, if your LWO file contains any animations, allow you to set the animation to play. To get started, please click the Upload button and select your LWO file.
Here are three simple steps to create an GIF file from a LWO file.

The LWO, or LightWave 3D Object file, is a 3D graphics file format originally released in 1990 and available for the Amiga, Mac OS, and Windows. The LightWave software was developed by NewTek and is used in the television and film production of 3D digital effects.
The LightWave software is still a popular choice for 3D modeling and digital effects, with the most recent version being released in 2021. The format can contain 3D model or mesh information along with material and animations.
If your LWO file is uploaded with accompanying texture files, these will be included in the conversion process.

GIF files have been around since the mid-to-late 1980's and were introduced by CompuServe as a way to compress color images into small file sizes suitable for downloading, at which time most download speeds were limited. The format allows varying-size color palettes of up to 256 colors in total to be defined from a palette of 16 million colors.
Later on, the ability to add animations to the GIF file format was added. GIF files became a popular image file format for the early internet due to their small size, large color palette, and animation capabilities, and they are still popular today.
If your LWO file has separate texture (PNG, JPG etc.) files, you can place these additional files, along with the LWO file within a ZIP or other compressed archive file and upload this.
We aim to process all LWO to GIF conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the LWO file you submit to us. The resulting GIF file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
No. All our conversion tools process your LWO file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted GIF file quickly.
Yes! Our LWO to GIF tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our LWO conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your LWO to GIF, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
