All about TGM Files
The TGM file type is primarily associated with Total War Games.
What is a TGM file?
TGM files mostly belong to Total War Games. TGM files are data files that can serve very different functions depending on the software that created them. They do not follow a single standard but are defined by their use case.
Unreal Engine Game Data: Some TGM files contain game data for titles built on the Unreal Engine 3. Such files, used by companies like Total War Games, store game assets and configurations. For more details, visit the Total War Games website. SQL-Based Tag Database: Other TGM files store structured data as an internal SQLite database. This type is used by the Kivnon Tag Manager to manage tag databases for systems like Siemens TIA Portal. Visit the Kivnon Tag Manager website for additional information. Game Save Files: Certain TGM files act as save files for games such as The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep or for systems like the TGM-Simulator. They often use GZIP compression to reduce file size. More info can be found on The Bard's Tale IV webpage. Train Control Telegrams: Other TGM files are used in railway systems. They carry train control telegrams, where the file’s content holds commands used by traffic management software like that from Eurobalise Compiler. Specialized decoders, such as Eurobalise_Telegram_Decoder, are required to process these.
