Several EVS modules require special treatment in order to package their data. We summarize the main reasons why this is required for each module, but we will explain some of the reasons and advantages of the post-treatment application.
The affected modules are:
- import vector_gis
- overlay_aerial
- import wavefront obj
In general, these modules read file formats which are often not single file formats. The conversion during packaging converts the usable data to a single, packaged file in a format usable by EVS. In addition, steps are often taken to pick a format which will allow for smaller file sizes.
The packaging process converts these files to binary EVS Field Files (.efb files) and requires replacing the original modules with a new read evs fiel
The special treatment for overlay aerial is quite different. Packaging is problematic when a module reads a file, but that process results in reading
