- Description
- The XYZ file type, associated with RPG Maker 2000 (Rm2K), is a specific format used for storing 2D graphic data, particularly for tilesets used in the creation of maps within the game development software. These files contain pixel art images that are composed of individual tiles, each representing various elements of a game's environment such as terrain, buildings, and other objects. The XYZ format is proprietary to the RPG Maker 2000 engine, ensuring that the graphics adhere to the software's specifications for seamless integration into game projects. The format is designed to optimize the storage and retrieval of graphical assets, making it easier for developers to manage and use their custom or predefined art resources within the RPG Maker ecosystem.
- 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.
