Can't import OBJ file from Maya into Windows Photoshop

I want to bring a Maya obj file (or any of the Maya exports) into Photoshop and After Effects. It will do it on a Mac computer, but not on Windows and unfortunately, my school computer lab is windows. I have tried almost all the export options. The latest was Export All>OBJexport  which works on Mac but not Windows. 

I would also be happy to use the Maya turntable and spin around what the students have made in Maya but I need to export it to Adobe.  I am not happy with any of the Adobe 3d options.

Thanks for the help.

Hi @nancy.sutton ,

 

Thanks for bringing this issue to the forums! That's interesting does it give an error when you attempt to import? I just attempted to export FBX from Maya 2024 into Photoshop and it worked out, can you give me some additional information?

  • Is the error happening on export from Maya, or on Import to Adobe? 
  • Can you screenshot the error? 
  • Also, is there a difference in License type from the Mac vs the Windows machines?

Hopefully i can help determine a route forward 😄 

 

Warm regards,
