Does this FBX viewer upload my model?
No. The viewer runs in your browser and the model stays on your device.
Free FBX Viewer
Preview FBX files locally before animation review, DCC import, or asset delivery.
Browser-only, private
Preview FBX files locally before animation review or DCC import.
How to preview an FBX file in the browser
Check an FBX asset before it enters an animation review or an engine pipeline.
Open the file
Choose a FBX file up to 50 MB, or drop it on the viewer. It is read locally in the browser tab instead of being uploaded.
Orbit, pan and zoom
Drag with the mouse or use touch gestures to look at the model from every side and check silhouette, proportions and stray geometry.
Check what matters for your next step
Check the pose, proportions and orientation of the asset. The viewer shows the model as loaded; use your DCC tool or engine to review rigs and animation clips.
Move the file on
Viewing is a check, not an edit. Once the model reads correctly, continue in the editor, engine or converter you actually work in.
FBX viewer questions
1 2 Which formats can I open?
GLB, OBJ, STL and FBX. Leave the viewer format on all supported formats to open any of them.
3 Does the viewer play FBX animations?
The viewer shows the model as it loads and lets you orbit it. It is meant for a quick shape and scale check, so review rigs and animation clips in your DCC tool or engine.
4 How large can the model be?
Up to 50 MB per file. Very detailed meshes need more memory, so a phone or older laptop may load them slowly.
5 Why is the viewer blank or showing a WebGL error?
The viewer needs WebGL. Use a current Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari with hardware acceleration enabled, then reopen the file.
Quick tips
- FBX files can vary by exporter. If one file fails, re-export from the source DCC tool with standard settings.
- Use FBX preview for quick visual checks, then verify rigs and animation in the target production tool.

- Turn One Photo into a Gaussian Splat File | TripoSplatUpload one clear photo when you want to orbit the subject. TripoSplat downloads a Gaussian splat as PLY or SPLAT, not a printable mesh. Open the generator next.
- Image to 3D Without a Local GPU | TripoSplat GuideThe generator page says you do not install a local GPU. TripoSplat turns one image into a Gaussian splat and lets you download PLY or SPLAT. Start on one image.
- A Gaussian Splat Is Not a Printable Mesh | TripoSplatA PLY or SPLAT splat is for turning a subject around in the browser. It is not an STL solid. Read this before you send the file to a printer. Not a solid part.
- Open a PLY or SPLAT File in the Browser | TripoSplatIf you already have a PLY or SPLAT file, open the free viewer. That path does not spend a generation credit. Use the generator only when you still have a photo.

- Photo to 3D File: a Splat Is Not Always a Mesh | TripoSplatThe phrase from a photo to a 3D model is ambiguous. TripoSplat publishes a Gaussian splat as PLY or SPLAT. A mesh for editing or printing is a different file.
- One Lighter 3D Preview Before You Create an AccountThe generator says the first run is a lighter preview, one per visitor, with no sign-in. Later runs stay in account history. This page quotes no credit grant.
- Frame the Subject Before Image-to-3D | TripoSplat GuideA small subject in a busy photo is a common reason a splat looks empty. Crop so the subject fills the frame, then upload that one image to the generator.
- View a File You Have, or Generate a New Splat | TripoSplatUse the free PLY viewer when the file already exists. Use the generator when you only have a photo. This page keeps those two jobs on two different buttons.
- Ask If Image to 3D Means a Splat or a Mesh | TripoSplatWhen you ask an assistant for image to 3D, ask what file comes back. TripoSplat's published answer is a Gaussian splat as PLY or SPLAT, not a print-ready mesh.
