The SVT (Torchlight Saved Game File) file extension is used by Torchlight, a popular action-RPG computer game available for Windows and Mac OSX. Developed by Runic Games, the game has been critically acclaimed for its easy to learn playing style and it's integration of intense action with character progression. The SVT file is created when a user saves their progress in the game. It's a proprietary file format, containing all the necessary game variables and data that document's the player's progress. When player pause to save the game, the SVT file is generated in order to enable a user to continue their progress.
Similar File Extensions
Other similar game file extensions include: D2X, EGM, NUD, SAV, and GME. SVT files are unique because they contain all the data for a Torchlight savegame, including gold, skill points, item levels as well as flags related to quest progression.
Technical Details
The Torchlight SVT file extension can have a variable file size, depending on the amount of information saved in it. Typically SVT files will include data paginated into 512kb packets. This assists with savegame loading speed, as only the small chunk of pertinent data needs to be laid out when a user returns to an existing or expired game.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .SVT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .SVT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .SVT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .SVT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .SVT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .SVT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .SVT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .SVT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .SVT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .SVT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
