problem with grfmaker

Post by a25003 »

I ahve been following the GRFmaker guide 1 but when I come to create the grf after saving the .lista file. I click on the GRF button and a box pops up titled 'GRF Maker [project1]'
which reads 'Invalid Filename'.
I have tried with different names and none have come to work.

If you haven't tried so, try a using a file name with max 8 characters, no special characters, and without spaces (DOS format).
Do you also have specified the path to grfcodec in the settings?

Yes I have tried a variety of names all abiding by those guidleines.
In the settings I can only see path settings for: Game's Path,Directory of Graphic Manager and NFO directory.

Doesn't matter no more problem fixed, turned out i had accidently deleted my newgrf folder.
