What is the Character .dat File?

In the game’s root directory, Real Racing 3 uses .dat files to store compressed game data. The "Character" file specifically governs:

  • Driver model geometry (suits, helmets, body types)
  • Texture maps (paint schemes, decals, team liveries)
  • Animation data (podium celebrations, steering wheel hand placement)

Unlike simple mods for PC games, these .dat files on iOS and Android are encrypted. This means that even if you find a download link online, it is not as simple as "drag and drop."

Step 1: Locate the Correct Folder

The .dat files are stored in the Android data directory: Android/data/com.ea.games.r3_row/files/.depot/

For iOS (jailbroken): /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/RR3/Documents/.depot/
