What is an IMC file?

IMC files mostly belong to RTS Image Converter. IMC files are container files that serve different purposes depending on the creator.
They can include a variety of data types, for example:

Compressed Disk Image: A common use is as a compressed disk image file created by RTS Image Converter. This file stores a disk snapshot in a compressed format. For details, visit RTS Image Converter.

Screen Recording Video: Another type holds screen recording data, usually encoded in MP4. These files, used by ImcPlayer and linked to Macro Recorder formats, behave like video containers.

Game Level Data: Some IMC files contain game map or level data. They are used in games (such as Quake 2 or Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast) and require game-specific editors. More info is available at Ironclad Games.

Interactive Multimedia Content: A further variant packages interactive multimedia in a compressed ZIP archive. Created with iSpring Suite, these files combine markup and media. Visit iSpring Solutions for more details.
