What are your perferred file formats for various customisable features in the game?

My Choices:

PNG for graphics, as it is a good, well-compressed and non-lossy format.

MNG (Ming Files ) for animations seems the most sensible, or just a row of pictures in PNG.

MP2 or any other low quality less compressed file format for sounds and music, as the amount used for processing sounds should be quite low, while the file formats should be kept small.

INI rather than TXT for rules files. No difference, really, just feels neater.

MP2s are HoMM2 Map files!
