The cullzone.dat is a binary file containing zoning information in GTA III and Vice City. The file is located in the \data folder of the game's directory. It is unknown what the file does and it does not appear to be used in the games.
GTA III
The file consists of five distinct sections. Many of the zones closely mimic the cull.ipl file.
