What do maya files ma and mb mean?

Ma is text character storage, mb is binary storage.

Ma save can be opened in a lower version, usually in MB format. MA format has more output nodes than MB, so the file will be larger than MB, so MA is compatible with various versions.

MB can only be opened in the same version or higher version, but since MAYA8.5, there has been an option to ignore the version, which means that lower versions can also open MB files in higher versions. Remember to clean up the site and delete redundant nodes after finishing the files, so that these problems will not occur.
