What is HIM file?

The file in the HIM format belongs to the Game Files category. It was designed by Gravity Interactive Inc.. Game Files consists of 1509 similar files.

The main program that supports this format is ROSE Online. This was created by Gravity Interactive Inc..

How to open HIM file?

An often recurring problem with ROSE Online Highmaps is that HIM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open HIM, 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 HIM 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 ROSE Online

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ROSE Online is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ROSE Online in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open HIM files.

Programs to open HIM file

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

Step 2. Create association of ROSE Online with HIM files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HIM file to open in the ROSE Online application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ROSE Online application as the default for handling the HIM file.

Step 3. Update ROSE Online to the latest version

If, however, after binding ROSE Online with ROSE Online Highmaps there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Gravity Interactive Inc. page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The HIM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the HIM file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the HIM file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover HIM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the HIM file. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged HIM files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Gravity Interactive Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HIM files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. It is best to move HIM 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 HIM file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
