- Description
- A PK3 file is an archive used by the Quake 3 and Quake Live gaming engines. It stores game data such as textures, sounds, models, and maps in a compressed format. PK3 files can be opened and extracted with WinZip, WinRAR, or 7-Zip on Windows, and with The Unarchiver on macOS.
- The Collada file format was developed to permit cross-platform collaboration when using different design applications. DAE is an open-source format that uses the XML-based schema allowing it to effectively transverse across multiple programs.
