What is TIM file?
The TIM file extension is associated with The Incredible Machine (abbreviated TIM), a puzzle game for Microsoft Windows. Developed by Dynamix and released by Sierra in 1993, the game offers players the ability to create their own Rube Goldberg-like contraptions with textured backgrounds, interactive objects, and falling tool parts. File Structure and Technical Details The TIM file stores the level data for the game. [ ⏩ ] TIM file extension
What is AVS file?
AVS (AVS) files are encoded using ASCII and contain instructions for video post-processing via AviSynth. AviSynth is an open source frame-server editing software package that enables users to edit media almost in a non-linear fashion. AVS files are tracable to text format with plug-in support. Converting standard audio and video formats such as AVI, MP4, MKV, etc., into another format can be conveniently conducted using the modules of AviSynth. [ ⏩ ] AVS file extension
How to convert the file from TIM to AVS?
To successfully convert the TIM file to AVS, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.TIM). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case AVS (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than AVS).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. TIM to AVS. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting TIM files to AVS files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension AVS, while before this step we had the TIM file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new AVS file, or not.
