What is a DTT file

DTT files mostly belong to Game Editor. DTT files are specialized data files created for specific software tasks.
These files serve several roles depending on their origin:
  • Game Data Files: They are used by game editors such as the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Editor and appear in titles from companies like FromSoftware. They store game assets and player settings, with similar cases seen in Darkest Dungeon and Football Manager.
  • Topography Data Files: Certain DTT files hold Dektak topography information. This data is processed by tools like Dewesoft X2 and inspected with software such as GOM Inspect. For more details, visit the Dewesoft website.
  • Retail Transaction Files: In some cases, these files record cash register data or act as Daily Total Transaction logs. They may be managed through applications like DTT Manager or be part of POS firmware updates.
  • Data Transfer Files: Some DTT files are used to transfer information, for example, to AS/400 systems. One variant uses UTF-16 (LE) encoding to aid compatibility.
  • FilExt.com note: Opening a DTT file generally means using the original or a compatible application designed for that specific type of data. Using the correct tool ensures that the data is viewed and edited properly.

    How can I open a DTT file?

    You need a suitable software like Game Editor to open a DTT file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your DTT file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a DTT file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    Programs that open and convert DTT files:

    1. Game Editor
      See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. DTT files are often referred to as Game Editor games because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
    2. IBM i (data transfer information file) by IBM
      IBM i is an operating system for minicomputers and enterprise servers that runs on IBM Power Systems and IBM Pure Systems. It is a turnkey text-based operating system that reduces the need for configuration and interventions by IT administrators. A DTT file is created by the Data Transfer To IBM i application in IBM i. The file stores information for data transfer to an existing database file definition on the system. The application may also create a TFR file instead of the DTT file.

    DTT file format:

    To view or edit DTT files you need to know the file format, because it determines how the data in this file is stored. The initial characters of a file are called signature, sometimes also referred to as "magic bytes". The signature can be used to infer the file format. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. Knowledge is power - this also applies when dealing with unknown or faulty files.
