How to upload a model with separate model and texture files?

Put all file in a zip file, upload the archive, please note that Elementor will block
zip files by default, you need to enable this option (for svg, but applies also to zip):

A simpler solution is to change the zip file extension to mzip, so it will be
handled directly as 3D model format.

An even better solution would be to use our powerful optimized format emb3d,
you can convert your model for free at: https://app.emb3d.com/

How to upload large model files?

You need to increase post_max_size and upload_max_filesize in your php.ini,
you may also need to increase the respective option in your webserver,
e.g. if using NGINX client_max_body_size

It’s been more than half year since I asked for some enhancement/fix, but nothing happened. The plugin looks good but pretty useless. #1. It does not allow you rotate about horizontal axis, so you can never see the model botton. #2 the rotation event handling is awful. #3 the developer decided not to use parallel perspective, this way the model looks quite deformed when zoom in. I am really hoping they are fixed.

Very easy to integrate in Elementor, the Premium version offers a lot of supported format.

The emb3d plugin is awesome! It allows you to view 3d models in a way that is much more immersive than just looking at pictures. You can really get a feel for the scale and size of the model, and how it would look in real life.
