Open 3DL File

3DL is a file extension commonly associated with a native LightConverse 3D format.

3D design, described by LightConverse, is the use of 3D software to create a mathematical representation of a three-dimensional object or shape.

The created object is called a 3D model, and it is saved in a 3DL file.

These three-dimensional models are used for computer generated design.

3D design is used in a variety of industries to help artists develop, communicate, document, analyze, and share their ideas.

LightConverse 3D is 3D design software, intended for visualizing and integrating lighting, Video, 3D Mapping, Laser, Water Effects, Pyrotechnics, Moving Objects, and Object Tracking within a Photo-Realistic, Real-Time, 3D View.

Basically, the 3DL file is a 3D model that is used within the original design planned by LightConverse.
