What is a .NAR file?
The .NAR file extension is used for a type of file called a Nexon game archive. This kind of file is specifically used by a game called Counter-Strike Online, which is a version of the popular game Counter-Strike. However, Counter-Strike Online was developed by a South Korean company named Nexon. The .NAR file contains various important pieces of the game, such as textures (which are like the skins or surfaces of objects in the game), audio files (which include sounds and music), models (which are the 3D shapes of characters and objects), and other necessary assets that make the game work and look as it does during play.
To open a .NAR file, you would typically do so within the Counter-Strike Online game itself, as the game knows how to access and use these files for its operation. However, there are also special tools, like CSOTools, that can open .NAR files. These tools are usually used by people who are interested in looking at the game's assets outside of the game, possibly for modding (modifying the game) or for other purposes like studying how the game is made.
