What is STATICMESH file?
The STATICMESH file has been categorized as 3D Image Files. It was designed by Electronic Arts, Inc.. In addition to this file, the 3D Image Files category includes 622 related files. Battlefield Static Mesh appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional.

The Battlefield 2 programs will also handle the file when the BfMeshView program does not fulfill its role.
How to open STATICMESH file?
The main problem with Battlefield Static Mesh is that the STATICMESH file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that STATICMESH files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the STATICMESH 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. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support STATICMESH files.
Programs to open STATICMESH file
Remember to download programs supporting STATICMESH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BfMeshView with STATICMESH files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the STATICMESH file to open in the BfMeshView application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the STATICMESH file with the BfMeshView application.
Step 3. Update BfMeshView to the latest version
If, however, after binding BfMeshView with Battlefield Static Mesh 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 Martjin Buijs page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the STATICMESH file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The STATICMESH file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to STATICMESH files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our STATICMESH file. However, remember that not every infected STATICMESH file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the STATICMESH files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 STATICMESH file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Electronic Arts, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted STATICMESH 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 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. Copying the STATICMESH file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the STATICMESH file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file STATICMESH to close. 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.
