How to open GMMOD file?

An often recurring problem with Game Maker 3D Model Format is that GMMOD is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open GMMOD, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GMMOD file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install Model Creator for Game Maker

In this case, you should first verify that the Model Creator for Game Maker application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Model Creator for Game Maker into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support GMMOD files.

Programs to open GMMOD file

Remember to download programs supporting GMMOD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Model Creator for Game Maker with GMMOD files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GMMOD file still does not use the Model Creator for Game Maker program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GMMOD file with the Model Creator for Game Maker program.

Step 3. Update Model Creator for Game Maker to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Model Creator for Game Maker program, it is possible that Game Maker 3D Model Format requires a newer version of the program.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GMMOD file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to GMMOD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GMMOD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected GMMOD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GMMOD files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GMMOD file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GMMOD files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move GMMOD to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the GMMOD file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
