I have a folder with a .obj file, a .mlt file, and a number of .jpgs that are textures for the .obj file. Here's a link to the folder.

I'm trying to import this .obj into either Maya or Unity 3D, and when I do I only see a gray, untextured object. How can I get my model to appear with the textures/materials in the folder? From what I gather from elsewhere on the web, .mlt files are sort of tricky to work with in combination with .objs, but is there anything I can do here that will let me get this model to render properly with these materials in Maya or Unity 3D?

Grateful for any help.

From what I've seen online as well, Maya doesn't play nice with .mlt files. I think the best solution is to grab a copy of Maya LT (or download the trial), open your .obj w/ .mlt, and use the FBX plugin (built-in) to export a .fbx file which is compatible with both Maya and Unity.

  • Thanks for responding! I have Maya so that's no problem, but how do I open the .obj file with the .mlt? Maya doesn't seem to be able to read it. – user2812439 Apr 15 '17 at 20:20
  • Following [this](https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya-lt/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2017/ENU/MayaLT/files/GUID-DC183670-EF0F-4E69-AEDF-69D408D82408-htm.html) info link, you'll need to use File > Open Scene, and in the file dialog select the .mlt file. – Justin Tennant Apr 18 '17 at 22:31
