    Facebook adds support for high-quality 3D posts on the platform
  • Facebook has rolled out support for a standard 3D file format called gITF 2.0 for seamless sharing of 3D posts on the website.

    The file format also brings support for textures, lighting, and realistic rendering techniques, regardless of the 3D art being rough, shiny, metallic, or soft.

    It allows for richer 3D objects and aims to bring higher-quality 3D content to Facebook.

    They also allow 3D content from websites to automatically appear in 3D when shared on Facebook.

    Users can now drag-and-drop 3D interactive objects into the News Feed, and also bring them to Facebook's social VR hangout room Spaces for an immersive experience.
