Sample Overview

This sample shows you how to implement a custom model importer for the XNA Content Pipeline. The sample importer is for the popular 3D model format OBJ. It is capable of importing many simple .obj files and their accompanying material (.mtl) files. However, the sample doesn't fully support all possible OBJ models.

Any project that references the importer can use the importer. The importer can be selected automatically by file extension or manually through the Properties pane. See the topic Using a Custom Importer or Content Processor in the documentation for more information.
