- Description
- The LIF (Homeworld Texture) file type is associated with the real-time strategy video game "Homeworld," which was originally released by Relic Entertainment. These files contain texture data used to detail the 3D models within the game, including ships, environments, and other graphical elements. The LIF format is specifically designed for efficient storage and quick access by the game engine to render detailed surfaces. Modders or game developers working with "Homeworld" might manipulate LIF files to create custom skins or to alter the game's visual assets.
- 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.
