Introduction: Why "Exclusive" Conversion Matters In the world of 3D modding for classic games like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , Vice City , or Manhunt , the DFF (RenderWare Binary Stream File) format is king. However, most modern 3D models are created or downloaded in the OBJ (Wavefront Object) format.
