Here we detail how to convert your MAX file to an BLEND file using the export options found within the Autodesk 3ds Max application. Currently, our converters cannot convert directly from MAX to BLEND. However, using the built-in export functions of Autodesk 3ds Max, we can achieve the conversion.
Firstly, you will need to load your MAX file into Autodesk 3ds Max and select the export to FBX option. Once you have your file in the FBX format, you can use our FBX to BLEND converter to complete the conversion process.
Here are two simple steps to convert your MAX to BLEND.
We aim to process all MAX to BLEND 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 MAX file you submit to us. The resulting BLEND file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
Yes! Our MAX to BLEND 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 MAX 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 MAX to BLEND, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
Our tool will save all Blender files that can be opened with version 4.0 of Blender.

The MAX file format is a 3D format used by the popular 3D modeling application Autodesk 3ds Max. The MAX format was introduced by Autodesk in 1996 and is still maintained, with new versions released in recent years.
Autodesk 3ds Max is popular among game developers, TV studios, and special effects studios.

The BLEND file type is the native 3D graphics file format of the 3D modeling application Blender. Originally released in 1994, Blender has grown over the years and is one of the most popular 3D applications available.
BLEND files store 3D content such as 3D geometry, vertices, faces, normals, animations, materials, and much more. Blender is free and open-source, contains many features you would expect in a high-end 3D editing application, and is available for most current operating systems.
If your original model file contains texture images and other texture-related data, these will be included in the final BLEND file.
Converting from the MAX file format to BLEND can be a complex process, and any tool used for this conversion process needs to be able to handle a variety of data conversion tasks as well as identify any defects within the 3D model and fix them. Here we will explain the conversion process used by our tool to accurately convert your MAX file to a valid BLEND 3D model. Let's start with the conversion process, which involves the following steps:
In its simplest form, an MAX file is a binary data file containing 3D data such as vertices, faces, normals, and more. When combined, these make up the 3D model you see on your screen.
For more information regarding the MAX file format, please see this great article that goes into a lot of detail explaining the MAX format.
With the MAX file data read, our tool generates an internal representation of the full 3D model and will attempt to fix any geometry issues encountered. Along with repairing any issues with the 3D model, the tool will remove any duplicated vertices and prepare the model for exporting to the BLEND format.
With the conversion process entering its final stages, our tool now needs to take the in-memory 3D model we have created in step 2 and convert it to the BLEND format.
