The .AMF file extension is associated with the Advanced Module File, a file format used by the AutoDesk Project Vasari 3D design application. This format is designed to store 3D models, textures and other scene elements in a lightweight, compact and easily accessible format. The output of the design process is stored in this file format, which can then be used in other applications such as Maya, 3ds Max or Corel Draw.
Technical Specifications:
The Advanced Module File stores 3D models as well as various attributes related to models, textures, material definitions and scene elements. It does this by using a combination of binary key-value pairs and XML tags. The structure of an AMF file typically contains mesh data, surface/volume definition elements and skeletal animation data. Models may also contain transparent surfaces, colors and hierarchical structures. Images are saved in mutually exclusive bitmap formats such as JPEG or PNG.
.AMF files are also similar to other 3D model files like .DAE, .3DS, .STL, .OBJ, .FBX, and .IGS. The content of an Advanced Module File can be exported into those formats as well.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for LINUX system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .AMF) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .AMF extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .AMF file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .AMF extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .AMF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .AMF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .AMF file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .AMF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .AMF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .AMF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
