Format details
MLDF is similar to IFF-PBM.
Some files contain a palette. Others contain a paletted image, but no palette. The palette must presumably be read from a separate .CMA file, but it's not obvious how to find the correct file.
Identification
.mld files begin with 'F' 'O' 'R' 'M' ?? ?? ?? ?? 'M' 'L' 'D' 'F'.
They also tend to have BMHD chunks.
Software
- Mean Streets Demo
- abydos (at least supports files with a palette)
- Deark (at least supports files with a palette)
Sample files
- dexvert samples — image/mldf
- Example of a CMA file: [1]
