- Description
- The MAX file type is primarily associated with 3DS Max, a professional 3D modeling, animation, and rendering software developed by Autodesk. It is used for creating highly detailed models, animations, and digital representations in various industries, including video games, film, and architectural visualization. The MAX file format contains all the data for a project, including models, textures, lighting settings, and animation sequences. When referring specifically to 3DS MAX THUMBNAIL, it implies the thumbnail previews associated with MAX files, giving a quick visual reference of the content without opening the file in the software.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
