If, despite the association of the Rigs of Rods program with the Rigs Of Rods Texture Reference Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MATERIAL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The MATERIAL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MATERIAL file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MATERIAL or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MATERIAL files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MATERIAL file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MATERIAL files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MATERIAL 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move MATERIAL to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MATERIAL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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.
