This is the technical documentation for the .bam format. This is generally not useful except for developers who insist on writing their own tools to manipulate .bam files without using the Panda APIs.
== Bam versions ==
The .bam format has a major.minor version scheme. The format is designed to be backward compatible, so that .bam files created with older versions of Panda3D will generally work with newer versions of Panda3D, although occasionally compatibility has been broken due to major changes in the Panda3D structures.
