- Description
- The file type ".bum" is associated with Poser, a 3D modeling and animation software. It is specifically used to store bump maps, which are textures that simulate raised or lowered surface features on a 3D object. Bump maps create the illusion of depth and detail on the surface of a model without altering its underlying geometry. These files are essential for adding realism to textures in 3D graphics by mimicking the appearance of physical characteristics like bumps, ridges, and other textures.
- A TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
