View an iff file

Hello everyone!
I'm looking for a software or program that can give me a preview of .iff files, or that can open them.
Actually, these are objects for The Sims that are in iff format.
But in the properties, it says the format is Amiga image paint.
Is there a software that allows you to view these images?
Thanks in advance

    Hello to you
    What's it for, is it just to look at the images or is it to add them to the game? Because if it's to add them, there's no need to open them, you just need to place them in the right location in the installation folder...

    I actually want to look at them because some items are useless to me and I would like to delete them.
    Thank you very much anyway.

    Thank you, but I didn't find the Paint Amiga image format = IFF in the XnView formats.
    Thanks anyway.

    Ah, yes!

    => http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pierre.g/xnview/frformats.html

    And on the other hand, what do you risk?
    It's completely free and it's software that will be quite useful to you for many other things.

    Yes, but I already installed it. Then when they told me that a plugin failed, I checked the formats and couldn't find anything.
    Sorry, I just looked again and indeed I hadn't seen it.
    In any case, the iff files won't open; they show up as incomprehensible text at the bottom of the software page.
    And when I try to open it with xnview, it tells me:
    << the file .... .iff has an unknown format >>
    I also tried running a slideshow with all the iff files, and xnview said the same thing.
    Thanks again, but can you please help me?

    I hope it's not too late but I think I understand:
    The .iff files are vector images, so we can't open them with regular image software. That's why xnview requires plugins.

    With the Corel Draw suite, it is possible
    If you don't have it, download the demo pack (which is quite substantial) from 01net.com. or the entire illegal and free version, but I can't give you the link^^
    But I'm not sure it opens .iff files, we'll see...
