SMD to SGI Conversion
What are SMD files?
SMD is a 3D model format associated with software developed by Valve Corporation. A well-known name in the gaming industry, Valve is the creator of Half-Life, Counter Strike, Dota 2 and other highly popular video games. SMD files are developed via Source, a game engine owned by Valve, and contain a three-dimensional model compiled using a command-line utility called Studiomdl Data and a QC script.
What are SGI files?
SGI (Silicon Graphics Image) is a raster image format associated with Silicon Graphics workstations. It is a bitmap file that can store black-and-white, gray-scale and color images, and may also contain color maps and alpha channels. SGI files are sometimes referred to as RGBs and can either use no image compression or RLE compression. Alternative extensions for the SGI format are BW, RGB and RGBA.
