- Description
- The WAL (Where's All the Data) file type is a texture format used predominantly in Quake II, a first-person shooter video game developed by id Software. These files contain texture data, including color, pattern, and surface information, which are applied to the 3D models and environments within the game to enhance visual realism and atmosphere. WAL files support various texture effects such as lighting, transparency, and animation, playing a crucial role in the game's graphical presentation. They are stored within the game's PAK archive files, which also contain other game data such as maps, models, and sounds.
- Image stored in the JPEG XR format, which was originally developed by Microsoft for Windows Media software; supports deep color images with 48-bit RGB; used for high-resolution professional image editing; also supports lossless and lossy compression.
