What is a DGO file?

DGO files mostly belong to Dell EMC UnityVSA. DGO files serve different roles depending on their source. For instance, in enterprise storage environments they are used as Dell EMC diagnostic log files that record system events on devices like Dell EMC UnityVSA and Dell PowerMax Storage. These files capture important diagnostic data useful for troubleshooting; more details can be found on the Dell EMC website.

Dungeonographer maps: In another context, DGO files store dungeon map data. They are encoded in UTF-16 (BE) and hold layout information that can be viewed with text editors supporting Unicode or specialized mapping tools.

Game data archives: Some DGO files are used by the Jak and Daxter series to pack game assets. These compressed archives include level data, textures, and other game resources, and require game-specific tools for proper extraction.

How can I open a DGO file?

DGO file format details:

If you can determine the file format, the associated program can also be determined. The initial characters of a file are called signature, sometimes also referred to as "magic bytes". The signature can be used to infer the file format. Frequently, however, one file extension is used by different programs for different file formats, and one file format for different file extensions. When there is a problem with a file, the first step to solving it is to determine the file format. Our evaluation of the DGO files is as follows:

The DGO file type is used by a few programs, each with its own file format. The two most common formats are as follows:

• 65% of all DGO files have the same signature Diagnostic segment . These files are text files and can therefore be read using a text editor. The files are often between 41 KB and 1 MB in size. The file type was developed only in the last few years. Several words can almost always be found in the files, e.g. Begin Segment, Created, Diagnostic segment, Model, Service and Diagnostic segment 1 for member. A common filename is Seg_1.dgo or Seg_2.dgo. Files like these are sometimes connected to bdhs.
• 25% of all DGO files save the data in UTF-16 (BE) file format. UTF-16 (BE) is an character encoding system for Unicode. UTF-16 files can be viewed in any modern text editor. These files start with the two bytes FE FF, the so called byte order mark (BOM). These files contain neither text nor words, but only data. The average file size is 82 KB with most files being between 82 KB and 160 KB in size. Certain words are almost always found in the files, such as show/hi and 30,30,40x40,id:855778,truerows Dungeonographer http://www.inkwellideas.com/ version 1.80.2. The file name Tomb.dgo is typical for these files. These files are often associated with dungeon.

All other DGO files (10%) have no consistent format, often e.g. oZlB. If you want to find out what your DGO file contains, drag and drop it onto this page.
