What is a UTX file?
A UTX file is a texture package used by games developed on Unreal Engine, including Unreal Tournament. It contains textures, which include images and graphics applied to surfaces in the game environment, such as character skins, landscapes, and buildings.
More Information
Unreal Engine games reference textures in UTX files to apply detailed images to 3D models, making characters, objects, and arenas look more realistic. Most gamers will not encounter UTX files unless they are attempting to modify elements within a game. For example, they may edit textures in a UTX file to create new looks for characters or redesign environments.
How to open a UTX file
UTX files are not meant to be opened since the games packaged with them automatically reference them. However, you can open them with various tools to view and modify the textures they store. Options include Epic Games UnrealEd, Dragon UnPACKer, and Unreal Tournament Package Tool.
