How to open TILEMAP file?
The most common problem when using XML Tilemap Format is that a specific TILEMAP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that TILEMAP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TILEMAP 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 Sublime Text
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Sublime Text is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Sublime Text into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file TILEMAP.
Programs to open TILEMAP file
Remember to download programs supporting TILEMAP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Sublime Text with TILEMAP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TILEMAP file to open in the Sublime Text application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TILEMAP file with the Sublime Text program.
Step 3. Update Sublime Text to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Sublime Text program, it is possible that XML Tilemap Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Sublime HQ Pty Ltd website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TILEMAP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to TILEMAP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TILEMAP or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected TILEMAP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of TILEMAP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TILEMAP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, 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 file TILEMAP 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. Copying the TILEMAP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the TILEMAP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TILEMAP 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.
