[edit] 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.
[edit] Identification
.mld files begin with 'F' 'O' 'R' 'M' ?? ?? ?? ?? 'M' 'L' 'D' 'F'.
They also tend to have BMHD chunks.
[edit] Software
- Mean Streets Demo
- abydos (at least supports files with a palette)
- Deark (at least supports files with a palette)
[edit] Sample files
- dexvert samples — image/mldf
- Example of a CMA file: [1]
