Extract text from 3D model files (VT)
To convert VT 3D models to another format, you need World of Tanks or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "Game 3D Vertex Data" file type, you need software like World of Tanks or a similar tool.
The .vt file extension serves multiple specialized functions, most commonly acting as a Game 3D model vertex data file for the game World of Tanks developed by Wargaming. These files store the raw coordinate data for 3D meshes used within the game engine. Secondary uses include VT-100 terminal animations generated using AAlib, Verilog test bench files used in Intel Quartus Prime, and VisTrails scientific workflow provenance files (which are structurally standard ZIP archives).
Handling .VT files is notoriously frustrating because they are highly proprietary and purpose-built for their parent applications. For example, a World of Tanks .vt file lacks the standard header information found in general 3D formats like OBJ or FBX. You cannot open these files in standard 3D modeling software like Blender without specialized, community-built extraction plugins. Similarly, VT-100 animations require legacy terminal emulators to view, making them entirely unreadable in modern web browsers or text editors.
Because these are closed, proprietary formats, standard online converters usually fail to process them. Often, only the original software or specialized modding tools can properly read or export the data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format - like the ZIP structure in VisTrails files or plain text in Verilog files - viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your VT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted PLY, LXF and STP files.

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 VT converter.
