Tips to open BIP file
Can't open the BIP file? You are not the only one. Thousands of users face similar problems every day. Below you will find tips on how to open BIP files as well as a list of programs that support BIP files.
BIP file extension
The BIP file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the BIP files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the BIP file on each system platform.
What is BIP file?
The file with the extension BIP is the 3D Image Files file type. 3D Image Files consists of 622 similar files. Character Studio Biped Format is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. There are also 1 alternative programs to handle the BIP file. The 3ds Max programs will also handle the file when the Discreet Character Studio program does not fulfill its role.
How to open BIP file?
The most common problem when using Character Studio Biped Format is that a specific BIP is not associated with the program. This causes the file BIP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BIP 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 Discreet Character Studio
In this case, you should first verify that the Discreet Character Studio application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Discreet Character Studio into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file BIP.
Programs to open BIP file
Remember to download programs supporting BIP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Discreet Character Studio with BIP files
If, despite the installed application, the BIP file does not start in the Discreet Character Studio application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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 set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BIP file with the Discreet Character Studio program.
Step 3. Update Discreet Character Studio to the latest version
If, however, after binding Discreet Character Studio with Character Studio Biped Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BIP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the BIP file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BIP file. However, remember that not every infected BIP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of BIP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BIP file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BIP except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the BIP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BIP to close. However, some background programs may block the BIP file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
