What is an LMT file?

LMT files mostly belong to Lost Planet 2 Model Viewer. LMT files are used by different software solutions for specific data storage.
For example, in Lost Planet 2 Model Viewer they act as game data files that may store models or other game assets.
In projects built with RPG Maker (2000/2003), an LMT file can be a map tree file containing the structure of game maps.
Some files use an XML structure for the METTLER TOLEDO LabX method, which holds method parameters and procedures used in lab equipment; further details are available at METTLER TOLEDO.
Another use of the extension is with Luxion products where an LMT file is a MoldTech or KeyShot Material file that stores material properties for 3D rendering; visit KeyShot for more information.

Game Data: Contains game assets and configuration details.
Map Tree: Holds the hierarchical layout for RPG Maker maps.
LabX Method: An XML-based file that defines lab procedures and parameters.
Material File: Stores information on materials and textures for 3D rendering.

LMT file format:

Every file has a defined file format, i.e. how the data is arranged in the file. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. However, different programs can use the same file extension, and file extensions can be assigned incorrectly. So you need a detailed analysis of a file to find out the format and the associated program. In the following you will find our evaluation of the LMT files:
