What is a MA File Type?

The MA files are saved in a MayaAscii format, which means that they are stored in ASCII text and can be opened in a text editor. C'is useful in case you need to manually edit your project because of a corrupted file. One of the drawbacks of the MA file format is that it can give rise to large files since it contains essentially a long list of text commands. An alternative to saving as'your project; AMM is .MB file, which is saved in MayaBinary format. It replaces text with numeric values, which reduces the size of the file but also makes it unique with a text editor.

Maya was developed at l' origin by Alias Wavefront. It was acquired by Autodesk in 2006.
