Earns its place for pairing direct OBJ export with face- and body-level material support, plus an automation license for scripted, hands-off exports from your own plugin.
ProtoTech's OBJ Exporter for 3ds Max exports solid bodies directly into OBJ files, making models easy to share and use in other applications. Materials export at the face or body level, covering both colors and textures. Precision Control lets you adjust file size and output quality by specifying precision values, while Tessellation Options let you tessellate at the body level or face level.
A free trial activates automatically on first install, giving 15 exports over 7 days with access to the full feature set. The paid version sends an activation key by email, and floating and automation license options are available. The automation license lets you call a function from your plugin on the same host application to export files without user intervention. The license is perpetual, with updates free for the first year.
The plugin supports 3ds Max 2023 through 2026 and runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11 only. It uses a custom installer rather than the standard App Store installer.

ProtoTech's OBJ Exporter runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11 only; no other operating systems are listed. It also uses a custom installer rather than the standard App Store installer, so follow the developer's instructions when setting it up. If you work on a different platform, this exporter will not be a fit. For the latest system details, refer to the developer's page.
ProtoTech's OBJ Exporter activates a free trial automatically the first time you install it, with no activation key required. The trial covers 15 exports across a 7-day period and gives access to the full set of features. Once you reach 15 exports or the 7 days end, you'll need to activate the paid version to keep exporting. The paid version delivers an activation key automatically by email after purchase.
ProtoTech's OBJ Exporter offers a separate automation license aimed at standalone PCs. With it, you can call a function from your own plugin on the same host application and export a file without user intervention. This lets you provide standard input parameters for export and avoid the GUI, giving your plugin's users a hands-off export experience. Licensing is handled by the developer, so contact them for specifics.
ProtoTech's OBJ Exporter is listed as free in this catalog. Beyond the automatically activated trial, the developer describes a paid version with an activation key delivered by email, along with floating and automation license options and a perpetual license that includes free updates for the first year. For current pricing, licensing terms and renewal details, check the developer's page or contact their support.
