Can anyone help with importing files.

[JackGames]

So i love everything about rpg maker mv besides the importing because sometimes i import a file, it works great

then sometimes i import a file and it isnt there when im selecting my enemy!

then sometimes its there, make a few events and its gone!

And ive checked everything....

i made sure its in the enemies folder instead of sv_enemies, the image is png, i restarted the game around 15 times and its random whether it wants to work or not!

anyone know a fix???

Please edit your thread (Use Full Editor) and change the title to "Need help importing resources". Make your thread titles actually give a clue as to what you need help with.

One cause of the problem could be that you're using illegal letters in naming the picture file.

Windows itself allows a lot of letters in a filename that are illegal in a network/web environment (space for example), and because MV has been programmed for web deployment it has problems with filenames that contain such illegal characters.

Another possibility are conflicts with versioning or access control softwares running on your computer.

You can also attach the picture so that we can check if the file is OK or has any problems itself.

I have also noticed that having capital letters at the beginning of the filenames has helped them to appear in the past.

Thanks for everyone's help with trying to fix, but im still having the error.
I've tried using capital letters and have renamed my pictures to Custom1, Custom2, e.c.t   so they dont include illegal characters
unless my image's are copyrighted.

Then please give a step-by-step description on how you import (including paths, which buttons you press and so on).

Perhaps that will help us see where the error is.

Ok first i get my PNG image and then go to documents> games> blade of truth> img> enemies 

then put my image in... but that isnt the error, the error is that while im in the program sometimes the image

is in the enemy graphics, but then i take my eye off it for one second and then when i go back in, its gone...

Place the same image into the sv_enemies folder, so that it is in both folders and not only in enemies.

The engine selects the available pictures from one folder only, and that folder is switched when you activate or deactivate SV in the system tab.

Sorry still no,

my file is in sv_enemies folder and still no luck
