Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or VOX (MagicaVoxel Scene) model files to a standard DAE (COLLADA - Collaborative Design Activity) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages such as Blender or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple VOX files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your VOX file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a DAE file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the VOX to DAE conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

The VOX file format is a 3D graphics format used to store Voxel-style 3D models in an efficient manner. VOX files are the native format of the MagicaVoxel game development tools, allowing the construction of complex scenes composed of Voxel graphics.
VOX files contain Voxel geometry and material/color information packaged in a size-efficient binary format. The MagicaVoxel suite of development tools can open VOX files along with other 3D modeling applications.

The DAE format (also known as COLLADA) is a 3D file format used to describe 3D models, meshes, and 3D worlds using a simple text-based structure. The format was introduced in 2004 by Sony Computer Entertainment and is currently managed by the Khronos Group.
DAE files are a text/XML-based file format containing 3D geometric information used to describe 3D objects and meshes such as vertices, faces, animations, materials, camera/lighting elements, and other related metadata. The format has widespread usage and support, with applications such as Blender and MeshLab being able to read and write to it.
Our tool will save any texture files separately; these additional files will be included with your final DAE file at the time of download.
Converting from the VOX file format to DAE 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 VOX file to a valid DAE 3D model. Let's start with the conversion process, which involves the following steps:
In its simplest form, an VOX 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 VOX file format, please see this great article that goes into a lot of detail explaining the VOX format.
With the VOX 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 DAE 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 DAE format.
Yes! If your VOX file contains textured geometry, the texture image files along with the texture coordinates (UV data) will be exported with the final DAE file.
We aim to process all VOX to DAE 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 VOX file you submit to us. The resulting DAE 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 VOX 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 DAE file quickly.
Yes! Our VOX to DAE 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 VOX 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 VOX to DAE, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
