No. Any media bbcodes are disabled from chat. It wouldn't work very well.

Upload the entire folder as zip archive, not just the .obj.

Just a heads up that by messing around with the settings, you can use Sketchfab to do things such as make engines (Ice in front of lava/ice crystal and such) glow, and make glass clear, among other things such as nice shading and reflectiveness.

Here is an example with one of my ships that utilizes those options (Ignore the weird plant thing, I haven't figured out how to get rid of that white):

just use the 3d exporter in the catalog. it will convert the current entity you are in into an .obj file in your starmade directory

Doesnt that export it to a .smedit? or am I in the wrong place?

nope. it should export it into a .obj file. its very straight forward.

where do I find the .obj file then? Because all the ones in the exported folder in blueprints are .smedit
