They hold structured character information used during gameplay.

They are part of the game’s resource system, allowing modders and developers to modify or update characters.

They are typically managed through specialized tools such as the Neverwinter Nights Toolset or the Dragon Age Toolset.

FilExt.com note: Direct editing using standard text editors is not advised, as these files are generally in a binary format designed for the game engine.

Programs that open and convert UTC files:

Neverwinter Nights Toolset
See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. UTC files are often referred to as Neverwinter Nights Toolset games because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
BioWare Aurora Engine (Creature) by BioWare Corp.
A Creature is an object that can move around in the game and interact with other objects such as doors, placeable objects, items, encounters, triggers, or other creatures. The behaviour of a creature is controlled by a set of scripts, and it may also be controlled by a Dungeon Master player who possesses it. A Player Character (PC) is a specialized Creature that does not have AI scripts, but is instead controlled directly by a player. Creatures are stored in the game and toolset using BioWare's Generic File Format (GFF).

UTC file format:

If you know the file format, you can also find out how to open or edit the file. Each file format has a unique extension and almost always a unique signature. For example, Microsoft Word documents have the extension .docx and the signature (usually the first 3 characters in this file) PK. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. Knowledge is power - this also applies when dealing with unknown or faulty files. Below you will find our evaluation of the UTC files:

The UTC file extension mainly uses a defined UTC format. The two most common formats are as follows:

80% of all UTC files start with the magic bytes UTC V3., which are always the first bytes of this file format. The content consists of illegible binary data, which can only be read and interpreted by the associated programs. The file size is in the range of 2 KB to 10 KB. The file type was developed 10 years ago and is still in use today. Certain words are almost always found in the files, such as UTC V3.28 and UTC V3.38. Some examples of file names are den510cr_anora.utc. Such files sometimes refer to anora, witcher, warden, grey, mage, headhunter, dentist, flemeth, scoia, girl and whor.
