An ERP file may also be an archive used by games that utilize the Ego game engine, such as Race Driver: Grid, Colin McRae: Dirt, and F1 2016. It contains multiple asset files, such as .TGA , TGA.SAMPLER, and TGA.IMAGE files, which are used to store textures for objects in the game.

More Information

ERP files are typically only seen by gamers who are modifying the gameplay of a game. Ego ERP Archiver is a popular program for opening ERP archives. Users can then export graphic files stored in the archive, modify the exported graphic files with an image editor, then import them back into the ERP archive.

NOTE: The Ego game engine is developed by Codemasters.
