The PTL file format was used by NovaLogic for particle effects in its Microsoft Windows games, including games using the Voxel Space gaming engine. A file can define data used to display effects such as smoke, fire, explosions, or other moving visual particles.
PTL files form part of the game data installed with Delta Force, Delta Force 2, Delta Force: Land Warrior, Comanche 4, Armored Fist 3, F-22 Lightning, and F-22 Lightning 3. The games read these files during play rather than treating them as user documents.
This is a proprietary format associated with older Microsoft Windows games.
A PTL file is normally opened by the NovaLogic game that uses it. Leave the file in its original game folder and start the game on Microsoft Windows; the game loads the particle data automatically.
There is no standard general-purpose PTL editor. Do not expect a text editor or an image viewer to display the file correctly.
PTL files are proprietary game data files and do not have a common conversion path. They are intended to be read by the corresponding NovaLogic game, not exported to a general-purpose particle or image format.
Keep a backup of the original file before attempting any game-specific modification.
