1️⃣ Introduction

This page summarizes how to use CSMO files for those who have purchased materials from BOOTH.

Please refer to this if you are using it for the first time.


2️⃣ What is a "CSMO file"?

CSMO files are a file format for editing that compiles the shapes and textures of 3D objects.

However, they cannot be directly imported into CLIP STUDIO PAINT in CSMO format.

If you want to use them as 3D materials in CLIP STUDIO PAINT,

you need to "register them as new materials" in CLIP STUDIO MODELER.


3️⃣ Required software and environment

・CLIP STUDIO MODELER

You can use this software to edit and convert CSMO files.

 

Download it from the official website below.

 

Follow the instructions to proceed with the setup.


4️⃣ How to load

① Start CLIP STUDIO MODELER.

② Type of new work → Select 3D object

③ Drag and drop the distributed ".csmo" file onto the screen.
