Welcome to PyFFI!
The Python File Format Interface, briefly PyFFI, is an open source
Python library for processing block structured binary files:
- Simple: Reading, writing, and manipulating complex binary files
in a Python environment is easy! Currently, PyFFI supports the
NetImmerse/Gamebryo NIF and KFM formats, CryTek’s CGF format, the
FaceGen EGM format, the DDS format, and the TGA format.
- Batteries included: Many tools for files used by 3D games, such
as optimizers, stripifier, tangent space calculator, 2d/3d hull
algorithms, inertia calculator, as well as a general purpose file
editor QSkope (using PyQt4), are
included.
- Modular: Its highly modular design makes it easy to add support
for new formats, and also to extend existing functionality.
