All about ST1 Files
The ST1 file type is primarily associated with VisualBoyAdvance.
What is an ST1 file?
ST1 files mostly belong to VisualBoyAdvance. Some ST1 files use different internal formats and serve varied purposes.
For example, one type is a Game Boy Advance save file that uses GZIP compression. This file stores game progress and is handled by emulators like VisualBoyAdvance (learn more).
Another type is used by TicketCreator as a ticket printing format. These files define ticket design data and are used when preparing print layouts (visit site).
There are also ST1 files that work as 3D Studio mesh files or spatial data in GIS/CAD settings. They use the Microsoft Compound file format and are linked with design tools such as Stirling engine design software and Cadcorp SIS spatial systems (details).
Other uses include files that serve as MySQL database backups created by MySqlBackup.NET and files known as SvtPic trace files which record surveying instrument data (more info).

ST1 file extension format:
A file format defines how the data in the file is structured. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. If the file extension or signature does not match the file format, errors will occur when opening or editing the file. Knowledge is power - this also applies when dealing with unknown or faulty files. Our examination of the ST1 files comes to the following conclusion:
As a file extension, ST1 isn't very common and covers different formats for different programs. However, the following two file formats are common:
- 25% of all ST1 files save the data in GZIP file format. Gzip is a compressed archive file format. Gzip (GNU zip) is only capable of compressing a single file. The content consists of illegible binary data, which can only be read and interpreted by the associated programs. ST1 files are between 7 KB and 74 KB in size. The file type is relatively new. Some examples of file names are Pokemon - Fire Red Version (U) (V1.1).st1. Such files are related to pokemon, fire, versione, fuego, edicion, edition, espanol, dragon and italy.
- 15% of all ST1 files use the same file format, which can be identified by the letters "4D 56 00 FF 0C 00" at the beginning. These files are binary files, so they do not contain text, but only cryptic characters. The average file size is 170 KB with most files being between 45 KB and 390 KB in size. These files are often associated with billet, ticket and pale.
All the rest of the ST1 files (60%) have different formats, often, for example, DOC, MySqlBackup, SvtPic and GDB. Files like these are sometimes linked to gdbsave, blah, ball or team. If you want to find out what your ST1 file contains, drag and drop it onto this page.
