I'm 99% sure they will have the bytes in reverse order.

You've got 8 byte doubles in your file format for all the floating point values. Everything else uses 4 bytes floats for this. Are you sure...

I have a couple more questions about your format?
Where is the actual texture data stored?
How can you tell how many atoms there are at the top level? Is the whole thing wrapped up in a single atom?

struct Vertex {
double x, y, z; // Position

One question -
what is the advantage of using "atoms"?
It seems to make it hard to get to the data you want without reading the whole file?

Why not store named "files" in a zip file format?

The last few builds have been a .ZIP file anyway.
