How to open SKE file?
An often recurring problem with Battlefield Skeleton is that SKE is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file SKE to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SKE 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
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that BfMeshView is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name BfMeshView in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file SKE with BfMeshView. Below is a list of programs that support the file SKE.
Programs to open SKE file
Remember to download programs supporting SKE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BfMeshView with SKE files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SKE file still does not use the BfMeshView program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 SKE file with the BfMeshView program.
Step 3. Update BfMeshView to the latest version
If, despite the association of the BfMeshView program with the Battlefield Skeleton file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. 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 SKE file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. 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 SKE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SKE file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SKE 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 SKE 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SKE file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Electronic Arts, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SKE 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the SKE file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SKE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SKE to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
