Background

This repository has emerged from How to batch import Wavefront OBJ files? to keep track of all the changes over the years and having all downloads in one place. The add-on itself is basically just a wrapper of wm.obj_import or import_scene.obj operator in versions prior to Blender 3.2.0 until importing multiple .obj files is supported officially.
