What is MTL file?
The MTL file extension is associated with the Wavefront Advanced Visualizer 3D object application. This software is capable of viewing many different types of 3D object and raw texture files, including the MTL file format. It is an object material file format that stores specifications for the materials that are used to display a 3D object. [ ⏩ ] MTL file extension
What is MB file?
MB or .mb is an abbreviation for Maya Binary Project File. The MB File Extension is a 3D animation software developed by Autodesk, Maya. It is generally used to store various binary archives of Maya projects, such as meshes, surfaces, textures, cameras, lights, HDR images, and related information. MB Files may save complex 3D scenes built with polygons, fluids, dynamics objects, NURBS surface shapes, or other 3D animation tools like Maxon Cinema 4D. Maya itself can open these .

How to convert the file from MTL to MB?
To successfully convert the MTL file to MB, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.MTL). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MB (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than MB).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. MTL to MB. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting MTL files to MB files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension MB, while before this step we had the MTL file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MB file, or not.
