Convert LWS Files Online - Free LightWave Scene Converter

LWS (LightWave Scene) is the scene file format for LightWave 3D, storing complete 3D scenes with object placements, camera setups, lighting configurations, and animation data. LWS files use a text-based structure that references external LWO object files and image resources. The format coordinates all scene elements including transformations, keyframe animations, cameras, lights, and rendering settings. Converting FROM LWS files allows you to extract LightWave scenes for use in other applications.

What is an LWS File?

The LWS format is LightWave 3D's scene file:

  • Scene Organization: Object placements and hierarchies
  • Animation Data: Keyframe transformations and envelopes
  • Cameras and Lights: Scene setup and configuration
  • Resource References: Links to external LWO files and textures

This text-based format coordinates all elements of LightWave scenes.

Converting LWS Files

Our converter extracts data from LWS files and exports to standard formats:

  • GLTF/GLB - Modern format with scene support
  • FBX - Industry standard with animation
  • OBJ - Universal 3D geometry format
  • COLLADA - Open 3D exchange format
  • STL - Standard for 3D printing
  • PLY - Mesh and geometry format

The conversion processes referenced LWO files and preserves animations.
