Well, I've created some .obj files that I'd like to share with fellow Bryce enthusiasts here at renderosity. So I uploaded some files to my Angelfire site, as you can't upload direct to renderosity. Did the typing in of URLs and likewise... Click on the link to check it out, and instead of downloading an .obj file as one should - it comes up on the page as a text file. So what gives? And does anyone know how to make this work the way it should? P.S. The attached image is of the object I'd like to share. As you can see, it's a nifty helicopter. Thanks for your help. L8R!

Thank you, this is very nice. Sharen

You have to compress it as a .zip or .sit file for it to download properly. Otherwise, the browser will not know what to do with an .obj file and will display it as code.

Nope. It's not exactly the problem of the browser. The server is not configured to mark .obj as a binary file, but assumes it's a text/html file. Otherwise, you're right. Compressingit to zip will probably work, since servers usually recognise it as binary.

Looks like the obj is being opened in a text editor. No big deal if that's what it is. Save it as an obj, or rename it after saving to the .obj extension and try and import it. I set my preferences to open .obj in one of the notepad/wordpad options so that I could edit easily. So every time I double click an obj it opens in the text editor. Others might have done the same. Zip as suggested above to avoid this.
