HotGrid.dds file errors often occur during the startup phase of TrackMania, but can also occur while the program is running. These types DDS errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while TrackMania is running. Here are some of the most common HotGrid.dds runtime errors:

Most DDS errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your HotGrid.dds file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with TrackMania), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, HotGrid.dds file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading TrackMania, system crash while loading or saving HotGrid.dds, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection.

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying HotGrid.dds to your appropriate Windows system directory. Nadeo typically does not release TrackMania DDS files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing HotGrid.dds and all other DDS files for TrackMania. An incorrectly installed DDS file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
