How to open COLLISIONMESH file?

An often recurring problem with Battlefield Collision Mesh is that COLLISIONMESH is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open COLLISIONMESH, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the COLLISIONMESH 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 BfMeshView

The first step is to check if the computer has the BfMeshView program installed. To do this, enter the name BfMeshView into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file COLLISIONMESH with BfMeshView. Below you will find a list of applications that support COLLISIONMESH files.

Programs to open COLLISIONMESH file

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

Step 2. Create association of BfMeshView with COLLISIONMESH files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the COLLISIONMESH file still does not use the BfMeshView program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the COLLISIONMESH file with the BfMeshView application.

Step 3. Update BfMeshView to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the BfMeshView program, it is possible that Battlefield Collision Mesh requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Martjin Buijs website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the COLLISIONMESH 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to COLLISIONMESH files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our COLLISIONMESH file. Sometimes virus-infected COLLISIONMESH 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 COLLISIONMESH files changes over time. 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.
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 COLLISIONMESH file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Electronic Arts, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file COLLISIONMESH 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the COLLISIONMESH file to another location.
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. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
