What is VMT file?


A VMT file is a Material File used in Valve Source Engine games, which is a program that uses 3D models in order to display virtual worlds in video games. VMT files are often created by CAD programs or 3D modeling tools. They do not have an extension because they are typically located in the Source engine's materials folder. A VMT file contains detailed information about the properties of a material so that developers can use it when creating content for games or to render models in-game.
