BBCBASIC: Windows: Computer: Graphics: File: Format: B3D: What is the 
B3D file format?
---
B3D = 'B'bcbasic for windows '3D' format
---
Files with the .B3D extension are graphics data files (in BBCBASIC for
Windows proprietary format, created by Richard Russell).
---
This files contain a list of 3D triangle data, in the format
---
1. Total amount of triangles
---
Followed by for each of the involved triangles
(which can be seen as independent of each other):
 1. x coordinate triangle
 2. y coordinate triangle
 3. z coordinate triangle
 4. color of triangle (in RGB format)
===
Note:
The .B3D file extension used in BBCBASIC for Windows is not related to
Blitz3D's file extension .B3D
---
You can thus e.g. not use Blitz3D to read BBCBASIC for Windows .B3D
files.
===
Note:
The .B3D file extension used in BBCBASIC for Windows is not related to
Apple ASCII 3DMF .b3d
(e.g. used in the CrossRoads 3D conversion program)
