NFF to CAL Conversion
What are NFF files?
NFF (Neutral File Format) is an extension created by American developer Eric Haines with the aim of providing a test tool for rendering algorithms. NFF files contain geometry and surface characteristics data, as well as other aesthetic details describing a 3D scene or object. They are not connected to a particular application and can be used with ray-tracing or various types of 3D rendering software.
What are CAL files?
A CAL image file represents a monochrome bitmap image that uses the CALS raster image standard for storing graphics data. This standard was created in the 1980s by the US Department of Defence as a compressed interchangeable image format. CAL and CALS are extensions used for similar purposes.
