What is an RPS file?

RPS files mostly belong to DevExpress VCL by Developer Express. RPS stands for Render Preset Settings. The RPS file format is used by 3ds Max, which is a 3D modelling, rendering, and animation software developed by Autodesk. Rendering is the process of creating a 2D image or animation from a 3D scene. RPS files store preset render settings, including lighting, materials, and camera settings. Render presets can be accessed in 3ds Max from the Render Setup dialog, the Render Shortcuts toolbar, and the Rendered Frame window. 3ds Max comes packaged with default presets, and users can create their own custom presets as well. The RPS files that store the default presets are located in the \render presets subfolder of the 3ds Max installation directory. Users are recommended to save custom presets in the same folder, but they can be stored in a different location as well. Users can also specify a custom location. To do this, open the Configure User Paths dialog box. Then set the path for render presets in the File I/O panel.

How to open an RPS file

You need a suitable software like DevExpress VCL to open an RPS file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your RPS file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a RPS file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

RPS file format details:

If you know the file format, you can also find out how to open or edit the file. Often, the file format can be deduced from the file extension or the initial bytes (called the signature). However, different programs can use the same file extension. Furthermore, a file extension can be renamed incorrectly and double-clicking on it will then display an error when it is opened. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Below is our analysis of the RPS files:

You will often come across the RPS file type. This is used by different programs with different formats. But the following two file formats are common:

55% of all RPS files use the same file format, which have the signature 20 00 00 00. These files contain neither text nor words, but only data. Most of these files are 120 KB to 3 MB in size. This file type is based on cutting-edge technology. The files contain the following words: EMF, TdxGridReportLink, NewReport and TcxGrid. The file name NewReport.rps is characteristic of these files. Files like these are sometimes connected to report, patrol, payment, termination, employment, perioden, stock, kantinesalg, inventory, reporte, lista, hist and list.
10% of all RPS files are based on the Microsoft Compound File format, also known as Compound File Binary File format (CFBF or CFB) or OLE2 Compound Document format. This is a complex container format used by earlier versions of Microsoft Office and other Windows programs. The file signature of compound files is defined as D0 CF 11 E0 A1 B1 1A E1, so the first character of a file looks like "DOCFILE". Sections and streams in the file have names like ClassDirectory3, DllDirectory, RenderPresetsData, ScriptedCustAttribDefs, TargetedIO, TargetedIOCount, DocumentSummaryInformation, SummaryInformation, SaveConfigData and FileAssetMetaData3. The file size is in the range of 26 KB to 480 KB. The following filename is common: setup.rps. Files like these have the following tags: render, preset, vray, setting and settings.

All other RPS files (35%) have different formats, the following 8 formats can be found: Propellerhead Software Reason Song, GZIP, ServiceUrl and Upgrade. Sometimes used for collects, unity, summary, uebungsblatt, charge or detail. Just click the "Choose your .rps file to analyze" button on this page to find out what your RPS file is.
