POV-Ray Triangles File
A minimalist ASCII format that stores 3D geometry as plain lists of triangle vertices (X,Y,Z coordinates), without material, color, or topological data. Designed for simplicity, RAW files represent models through raw triangle meshes - ideal for computational workflows where only vertex positions matter - but lack the support for textures or hierarchies.
Key Features of RAW
- File Simplicity: Plain text human-readable format with no headers or metadata.
- Data Content: Stores only vertex coordinates (X Y Z per line).
- Geometry Type: Exclusively represents triangle mesh vertices.
- Small Size: Minimal file overhead due to bare-bones structure.
RAW File Conversion
Automesher Application and Autoconverter software are capable of reading and importing RAW files through the use of the Open Asset Import Library, enabling seamless conversion of triangle-based RAW files into a variety of other formats such as STL, OBJ, DAE, SKP, STEP, and more.
