Our free and fast tool will convert your 3D RAR (WinRAR) model files to a standard X (Direct X File) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple RAR files; up to 200 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your RAR file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a X file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the RAR to X conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

The RAR file type has been in active development since the early 1990s and is a popular format for storing and distributing compressed files.
Available originally for DOS, there was also a GUI version for Windows (WinRAR), which is still available today, along with versions for all major platforms and operating systems.

The X 3D file format extension was introduced by Microsoft with the launch of Version 2 of their 3D graphics API, Direct X, back in 2002. The format has evolved over the years; however, in 2014, the X file format was deprecated in favor of newer, more capable formats such as FBX.
The format is a simple text-based file capable of storing 3D mesh information such as vertices, faces, normals, and material information. In addition to basic 3D information, the format can also store animations with the X file format, which is primarily used in the development of games.
X files support material and color information. If your uploaded model contains color information, our tool will attempt to save this in the X file at the end of the conversion process. Texture information is not supported at this time.
First click the "Upload..." button, and select your RAR file to upload. You can also drag and drop your file onto the tool. Once your file is selected, you can set any configuration options. When the RAR to X conversion has completed, you can download your X file straight away.
We aim to process all RAR to X 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 RAR file you submit to us. The resulting X file, once created, is stored for 4 hours after upload; after this time it is deleted, and the short-term download link will stop working. You can create a long-term download Url with most tools that will ensure the file is retained for 24 hours, allowing you to download the file when convenient. Our tools also come with a Delete button, allowing you to delete the file immediately.
No. All our conversion tools process your RAR 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 X file quickly.
Yes! Our RAR to X tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
