The .vpt file is the table format used by versions of Visual Pinball, a Microsoft Windows program for simulating and creating pinball tables.
A table file contains the table's layout, objects, game behavior and associated table data. A table may also depend on external resources, such as pinball-machine ROM files or other files required by its configuration.
Visual Pinball table files use different extensions in different generations of the software. The .vpt format is associated with older versions, while newer Visual Pinball versions commonly use the .vpx format.
Open the .vpt file with Visual Pinball on Microsoft Windows. Use a version compatible with the table, because older tables may not work correctly in every release.
If the table requires external ROMs or other resources, place those files where the Visual Pinball installation expects them before loading the table.
A compatible Visual Pinball editor may be able to open an older table and save it in a newer table format, such as .vpx, but compatibility and the conversion result depend on the table and the software version.
