So I'm trying to create a common event for a book in my inventory that just 'shows picture'.

The issue I'm having is that I put in the correct img/pictures folder, but it's not showing in the Database...

Its saved as a .PNG, and I already tried restarting the program, twice.

Am I missing something?

yes - it's difficult to see because you had the mousehint at the wrong place in the screenshot, but your filename contains letters that are illegal under networking rules. As soon as you left the Windows environment with its stupid overrides that file would have been unable to load, and that is the reason why the editor blocks it from the beginning.

under networking rules, only latin letters, numbers and a very limited number od special signs are allowed to be used in filenames.
spaces are forbidden (which is why the other files in the folders use _ instead of spaces)

Also check that your file extension is .png, not .PNG (case-sensitive). :)

Standard URI character set (source)
Code:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz012345689-_.~
^ Like Andar says, stick to these characters for your filenames~

How could I have forgotten that about the 'sapces' -_- *sigh*

It works now.

Thank you!

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
