File extension XV3 description:

P-XVL file (Precise XVL) - Highly-compression, high-accuracy format. XVL® (eXtensible Virtual world description Language), an XML-based, neutral format used for compression, conversion, and integration of 3D data. The format achieves high compression rates that make it possible to publish CAD data to the Web and include in Microsoft Office documents. Lattice3D offers applications that let you use XVL files in such tools as 3D manuals, parts lists, marketing brochures, assembly instructions, and parts databases. Company president Alex Garcia-Tobar says the key to the high compression rate is that 3D geometry is translated from polygons to algorithms. No data is lost during compression, so XVL files are accurate to within 0.001 of the original. The company offers a free XVL viewer as well as Professional Player, which adds measurement and cross-section capabilities. A converter supports major CAD and DCC formats, including SolidWorks, Solid Edge, Inventor, Unigraphics, CATIA, and IGES. It also handles Architectural Desktop files. Lattice3D's converter is available as an application plug-in or as a server-based enterprise solution.

Help how to open XV3 files:

To open or to view 3D graphics or CAD-CAM-CAE file types, you can use one of the suggested application listed below the extension description. If the application is no longer available, try to use a very popular software suite from Autodesk, such as AutoCAD for CAD-CAM files, or 3D Studio MAX for 3D graphics files. AutoCAD and 3D Studio MAX support plugins (to provide new functions and features), which can be used to add import/export support for other 3D file formats in AutoCAD or 3D Studio MAX.
Other very popular application is Blender. The Blender is free open source 3D content creation suite, available for all major operating systems (Microsoft Windows, Linux, MAC OS X, Solaris, Irix), which also provides basic support for many 3D formats and plugins.

This is a general information about how to open the most common 3D file types, but there are some standards or 3D file formats, that have to be used with specific applications only. Many of the 3D formats were discontinued years ago and it's very hard to find any application, that can open or convert these old formats.

How to convert file with extension XV3:

The general information about how to convert 3D files (if there is no suggested converter application) is pretty simple, because most of 3D applications can also import, export, open or save files in other formats too. When the file is open, you can simply use the SAVE AS../EXPORT function in the FILE menu, and select the 3D file format you desire and just wait for the application to finish the saving/exporting. There is plethora of online converters available on internet for the most well-known 3D formats (AutoCAD, 3D Studio MAX, Blender, Alphacam, Pro/ENGINEER, Pov-Ray etc.).
