How do I add texture to OBJ?
How to add a texture in Blender? Go to the shading tab, drag and drop an image texture into the lower portion of the interface. Click and drag the yellow dot on the new image texture node and drop it on the yellow dot named “Base color” in the “Principled BSDF” node. We can now see the texture on the default cube.
Can OBJ files have textures?
In a nutshell, the OBJ file format stores information about 3D models. It can encode surface geometry of a 3D model and can also store color and texture information. This format does not store any scene information (such as light position) or animations.
How do you add textures to OBJ blender?
In the “Materials” tab, under the “Surface” section, search for “Base Color” and click on the small dot to its right. From the many new options displayed, click on “Image Texture”. Click “Open”. (Note that you could also create a texture from scratch in Blender by clicking “New”.)
How do you add a texture to a 3D object?
Do one of the following:
- Double-click the texture in the Layers panel.
- In the Materials panel, select the material that contains the texture. In the bottom section of the panel, click the texture menu icon for the texture you want to edit, and choose Open Texture.
How do you add color to an object in Blender?

What is the difference between OBJ and FBX?
OBJ is much simpler format that only keeps geometry (vertex, normals, etc) and uv data. FBX is much more advanced format that can hold much more data – models, uv data, joints, skinning information, animations, multiple takes of animation in one file, curves, and even embed texture files.

Where do I find the texture path in OBJ?
The *.obj file contains the mesh data. The *.mtl file contains one or more simple phong material(s) with the associated texture paths. And the good news is Obj is a super simple file format in text form. You can open the files in a text editor and edit them to your needs.
How do I add texture when importing from OBJ?

If you want to apply a shader, make sure the object is selected in the scene tab, and the material is selected in the surfaces tab. Then apply the shader. Both have to be selected, or the shader just doesn’t do anything.
Can a MeshLab file be an OBJ file?
Meshlab does support files with several texture files, just by using a separate material for each texture. It is not clear if you are generating your obj files with meshlab or other program, so I’m not sure if this is a meshlab related question. Here is a sample of a minimal multitexture .obj file (8 vertex, 4 triangles, 2 textures)
