All about VAM Files
The VAM file type is primarily associated with Virt-A-Mate.
What is a VAM file
VAM files mostly belong to Virt-A-Mate.
Virt-A-Mate Asset: Some VAM files contain a JSON structure that holds VR assets such as characters, scene settings, and configuration data.
Usage: These files work with the Virt-A-Mate application, allowing users to load, modify, or share virtual assets.
Video AVI Variant: Other VAM files act as audiovisual containers similar to AVI movies.
They do not use JSON and are meant to store video and audio data.
If such a file opens in a media player like VLC media player, it is functioning as a video container.
- Examine the file with a text editor—if it starts with a '{', it is likely a JSON asset file.
- Try playing it with VLC if it appears to be a media file.
- Always back up your file before making any changes.
How do you open VAM files?
You need a suitable software like Virt-A-Mate to open a VAM 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 VAM file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a VAM file directly in the browser:.
