What is an OVS file?

OVS files mostly belong to Planet Coaster. OVS files can be one of several specialized formats used in game asset storage.

Some OVS files are 3D object files used in games like Planet Coaster and Planet Zoo. They rely on zlib compression to pack model data for environments and animal figures.

Other files use the Ogg container to hold Ogg Vorbis audio data, which may be processed with tools such as SoX.

A smaller set appears as an OpenVDB file that contains volumetric data. This version often needs a dedicated viewer like the OVS Viewer or the native game software.

Visit the official pages at Planet Coaster and Planet Zoo for more specifics.
FilExt.com tip: The functions of these files include storing game object models, audio streams, or volumetric simulation data, each requiring a matching tool or game engine to open and process the information.
