About DTT files
DTT files serve multiple highly specialized roles across different industries. Most commonly, they operate as proprietary Game Data Archives used by PlatinumGames titles such as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. In industrial sectors, .DTT extensions store Surface Profile Measurement data generated by Taylor Hobson hardware or Dewesoft X2. Additionally, legacy systems use them as Point-of-Sale (POS) transaction totals or IBM i Access data transfer requests encoded in UTF-16 (LE).
The main disadvantage of the .DTT format is its extreme fragmentation. Because the exact same extension is shared by wildly different applications - from gaming engines to cash registers and tensile testing software - standard operating systems cannot natively read or route these files to the correct application. Users often encounter opaque binary blobs that require specific, obsolete, or expensive proprietary software to open. Game archives require specialized modding tools to unpack, while measurement data relies on licensed engineering suites.
Converting a .DTT file directly depends entirely on its source. Measurement and transaction data are best converted to CSV, JSON, or XML to allow analysis in modern spreadsheet tools. Game archives cannot usually be "converted" in the traditional sense, but must be extracted into standard media formats like PNG, OBJ, or WAV using community-built unpackers.
Standard online converters fail to process .DTT files because they lack the specific unpacking algorithms or data schema definitions required by these closed, undocumented formats. Emphasize that often only the original software can properly read or export the data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your DTT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted DAT, NEF, USK, SG3 and MGM files.

The DTT Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our DTT converter.
