What is a .IRR file?
An .IRR file is a type of 3D file used in creating video game scenes or other 3D applications. It is made with a tool called Irrlicht, which is a free program that lets people make 3D graphics. The .IRR file includes a special kind of list, known as a scene graph, that has information about different parts of a 3D scene. This can include things like how particles move, how objects are animated, and what materials look like, all written in a code format called XML.
Inside an .IRR file, there might also be extra information that points to other files, specifically .IRRMESH files. These .IRRMESH files contain the shapes or meshes that you see in the 3D scene. So, the .IRR file helps organize and link all these different elements together to create a complete scene in a game or other 3D application.
To open an .IRR file, you would typically use the Irrlicht engine itself, as it understands how to read and display the contents of these files. Another program that used to open .IRR files was called Ambiera irrEdit, but it is no longer available or supported. This means you can't get new versions of irrEdit or find official support for it, but the Irrlicht engine remains available for creating and working with .IRR files.
