LightWave is a 3D modeling, animation, and rendering software developed by NewTek. It is used in the film, television, advertising, and video game industry to create characters, sets, and visual effects.

The LightWave files are saved with the extensions *.lwo and *.lw for models and animations respectively. These files can be imported and exported to other 3D applications such as Maya, 3ds Max, and Blender.

CAD Interop distributes several softwares to view and translate LightWave files. Find below the list of our solutions compatible with LightWave format:
