Browser-local workflow

How this tool works

  1. Step 1

    VOX file

    Choose a VOX file from this device.

  2. Step 2

    Local parser

    The browser reads the supported file data locally.

  3. Step 3

    Interactive preview

    Orbit, inspect, and review the loaded model in this tab.

Direct answer

Can I open VOX files in my browser?

Yes. This VOX viewer parses and renders a single file locally in your browser, so the model is not uploaded to Modelfy. VOX files up to 25 MB are accepted. Current boundary: VOX data is converted to polygon meshes; editor-specific scene metadata is not retained.

Why choose this online VOX viewer

Local VOX file parsing

The selected VOX model file is decoded on your device and is not uploaded to Modelfy. The page itself still loads normal website code and static assets.

Inspect MagicaVoxel geometry

Orbit, zoom, and pan around the loaded model to review geometry for voxel art and stylized games before using it in another application.

VOX support boundary

Current browser implementation: VOX data is converted to polygon meshes; editor-specific scene metadata is not retained.

How to open a VOX file online

  1. 01

    Upload your file

    Drag and drop a VOX file into the viewer, or click Upload to pick one from your device.

  2. 02

    Inspect in 3D

    After the VOX loader finishes, drag to rotate, scroll to zoom, and right-click to pan while checking the model for voxel art and stylized games.

  3. 03

    Continue your workflow

    Review the documented boundary before continuing: VOX data is converted to polygon meshes; editor-specific scene metadata is not retained.

About the VOX file format

MagicaVoxel

The .vox format stores models as a grid of colored voxels plus a palette. It is the native format of MagicaVoxel, the most popular free voxel editor, used widely for stylized game art.

When converted to mesh formats, each voxel becomes cube geometry with its palette color preserved as vertex colors.

Format reference: MagicaVoxel VOX format description

Strengths

  • Compact voxel grid encoding
  • Palette colors preserved
  • Perfect for stylized game art

Commonly used for

  • Voxel art and stylized games
  • MagicaVoxel project exchange
  • Voxel-to-mesh conversion

Frequently asked questions

Is my VOX model file uploaded to a server?

The selected VOX model file is processed by the browser and is not uploaded to Modelfy. Website code and static assets still load over the network like a normal web page.

Is the VOX viewer free to use?

Yes. The browser viewer, converter, and local 3D text tool require no account and add no watermark. Input limits vary by format, up to 50 MB; AI model generation is a separate credit-based product.

What is the maximum file size?

VOX inputs up to 25 MB are accepted. The format-specific limit keeps browser-local parsing bounded; actual processing also depends on available memory, model complexity, and device performance.

How are voxels turned into a 3D mesh?

Each solid voxel is meshed as cube faces with its palette color stored as vertex colors, so the converted GLB/OBJ keeps the voxel look. Interior faces between neighboring voxels are removed to keep the mesh lean.

From a single image to a production-ready 3D model

These browser tools stay free for viewing and converting files you already have. When the model does not exist yet, Modelfy generates a textured mesh from one reference image — the first one is free.
