Game will no longer load.

I have recently reinstalled the rpg maker on my new computer and transferred over my current project from the old one. Now I keep getting this error when I try test run the game. Here is the code and a screenshot of the error message.

102 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------103 # * Create/Get Normal Bitmap104 #--------------------------------------------------------------------------105 def self.normal_bitmap(path)106 @cache[path] = Bitmap.new(path) unless include?(path)107 @cache[path]108 end

it has nothing to do with scripts - your project cannot load an image file that was still included when you last worked on that game.


You need to identify the missing or damaged picture and either import it again to your project, or replace the reference with something else.


Search for the error message on this forum - someone made a script that will display the filename of the missing file before the game crashes, you need that script to locate the problem.

I would go back and copy the whole original graphics folder and then paste it over the one one the new pc.

That will only work if it's about a missing file forgotten to copy - and that's usually a rare occurance, because you don't copy files singly.
In most cases it's either a damaged file or the result of an edit you've forgotten to test on the earlier project, both of those cases require to identify the exact file to help...

Thanks for the help you were exactly right, I checked the graphics folder and some of the images had 0kb next to their memory and did not load the named image. It was a problem I had in transfer of the files but have fixed it now and it is running great.
