Post subject: | [Solved] "Failed to load datafile" But the files are there |
I was working on my faction, creating a new weapon (With the same method i used to create all the other weapons in the faction, which is: Copying the files from a similar weapon, then changing parameters) and when i try to load the game i get this error: --------------------------- RTE Aborted! (x_x) --------------------------- Failed to load datafile object with following path and name: NapalmCrew.rte/Devices/Sprites/FamasMag.bmp The last frame has been dumped to 'abortscreen.bmp' You can copy this message with Ctrl+C --------------------------- The problem is... The file is there, the three files associated to the weapon (FamasMag.bmp, Famas000.bmp and Famas001.bmp) are there, the filepath is not misspelled or not case sensitive. If i change "FamasMag.bmp" to another file, say, "GalilMag.bmp" it works, but then i get the same error in "Famas000.bmp", which, as i sayed before, is also present in the corresponding folder. So... What is happening here? What can i do to fix it? Thanks in advance! UPDATE: Im using the latest version of GIMP and after i edited and saved another file (From a gun which was already working perfectly) it gives me the same error, so it definitely is related. My guess is that this has something to do with the palette. SOLUTION: Unfortunately i didnt find the problem GIMP is causing, but i found the solution, just open the image in Paint, save it, and close. |

The problem is that you're using GIMP. |

There's a way to save out of gimp... I've posted somewhere with the solution to do just that. Corpsey wrote: ...when you're exporting as Windows BMP Image, check "Do not write color space information" under Compatibility Options. |

@4zk: I used GIMP to make everything that is present in the mod, it's just that i used an older version. Didnt know the currect one caused this. @Corpsey: Thanks for reporting the actual cause of the problem! As i said before, this wasnt neccesary in previous versions of GIMP and i didnt know. |
