What is a BCX file

BCX files mostly belong to Bluebeam Revu. BCX files are not a single file type but are used to hold very specific data by different applications. They can store commands, scripts, and data in either an XML or a binary format.
  • Bluebeam Batch Command file (XML-based): Holds commands for automating tasks in Bluebeam Revu. You can view its XML structure in any text editor, though it works best with its native software. See more at Bluebeam.
  • KiriKiri Engine Script file (Binary data): Contains game scripting data for the KiriKiri engine. This format is not meant for manual editing and requires the engine’s tools.
  • Compressed Game Data file: Stores game assets in a compressed binary form. Extraction or modification usually needs game development utilities.
  • Bitmap Graphic Index file (Blitz3D): Works as a binary index for graphic data, used within Blitz3D projects.
  • Backup Exec / Business Card Exchange file (XML-based): Holds backup settings or contact exchange data, such as those used by Blue Iris.

  • FilExt.com tip: This mixed use means that knowing the file’s origin is key when deciding how to open or edit it.
