Windows is primarily supported because we rely on VTFCmd.exe (see link below) to convert VTFs to images files, so they can be used in the preview.

But you can compile on macOS or Linux for yourself, and pretty much everything besides the texture preview will work.

We are using Qt 5.6 and MinGW 5.3.0 for compiling (but newer versions should work as well).

Download the community edition setup of Qt
Install Qt Creator and MinGW (Qt setup handles this)
Clone this project and open VMT_Editor.pro in Qt Creator
(optional) Place DevIL.dll, VTFCmd.exe and VTFLib.dll in the executable folder (from Nem's tools) for texture preview

Or skip the GUIs and compile through qmake directly.

You can open the example VMTs in the misc/vmt folder to check if everything works correctly.
