REP files have, up to now, three different applications, namely:

Grand Theft Auto Replay File

A REP file, for GTA (acronym for Grand Theft Auto by Rockstar Games), is a replay file within an open world car racing and campaign game.

This REP file contains a series of frames, or scenes, that capture information about the game at a given time, including actors, weather, pedestrians, and vehicle positions.

REP files are used for sharing and reviewing game experiences.

It is important to know that REP files do not contain real video data, therefore they are not considered video files.

They only contain captured frame data that can be played back in GTA.

StarCraft Replay File

In this case, the REP file is created by StarCraft, a real-time strategy game in which players create bases and control units in outer space.

The REP file contains a recording of all events during an encounter on a single or multiplayer map.

REP files do not contain actual video data.

They only contain action and sequence data that can be played on StarCraft.

X-Plane Replay File

In the same way as the previous two applications, the REP file is created by X-Plane, a professional flight simulator, which contains a recording of a previous flight, which includes the aircraft and the circumstances of the flight, such as weather and conditions. aircraft controls.
