- 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 WEBP file is an image saved in the WebP (pronounced "Weppy") raster image format developed by Google for web graphics. It is designed to reduce image file sizes over standard JPEG compression while maintaining the same or similar quality. WEBP files allow images to be downloaded more quickly.
