How to open SMPF file?
The main problem with Sprite Monkey Project is that the SMPF file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open SMPF, 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 SMPF 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 Sprite Monkey
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Sprite Monkey is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Sprite Monkey in it.

Programs to open SMPF file
Remember to download programs supporting SMPF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Sprite Monkey with SMPF files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SMPF file still does not use the Sprite Monkey program, it means no association. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SMPF file with the Sprite Monkey program.
Step 3. Update Sprite Monkey to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Sprite Monkey program, it is possible that Sprite Monkey Project requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the PoseMotion website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SMPF file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The SMPF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to SMPF 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SMPF or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SMPF files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of SMPF file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SMPF files. You can restore the file from a backup or use PoseMotion help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SMPF 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the SMPF file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SMPF file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SMPF file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SMPF file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
