Preset Creator and Files

[Frenchfries271]

Heya, so my friend made me a preset and I'm having trouble exporting it.

Whenever I go to Preset Creator, and click on the appropriate preset, the game just freezes then shuts down. I think it may have something to do with having two different eye and head files, but I have another preset with the same thing, and it works perfectly fine. I changed the material file folder coding, whatever it's called, to accommodate for the L and R files, but it's still not working.
I've re downloaded the files, changed them to a different preset folder, and renamed them but it's still not working.

Any help or advice?

Try changing the files from like .png to .jpg or if they're already .jpg then switch it to .png and see how that goes. : o

Adding L and R shouldn't have any effect on the game.

Just tried it, no luck. I realized that I named the head files as the eye files, and I thought that could be the problem. Unfortunately after changing it, it still doesn't work

Check the size of each image file... if they are anywhere above 512x512 pixels. resize em.

Can you send me a screenshot of the material file code and your preset images to make sure they all match up correctly?
 If your files are .png then use this code

The files are all 382x382, and of course:
Also, I tried both of the coding for png and jpg, the whole preset link just disappeared in the game
And sorry, I have absolutely no idea how to do the table scrolling for future preferences

Can you show me a picture of your files too? Just so we can match it up.
You're welcome to cross and draw all over it i just want to make sure they match up with the material. Just in case.
Also make sure the files are 512x512.

[Frenchfries271]

The problem was indeed the sizing, after I resized them to 512x512, the images came back. The only problem now is with the two different eyes and heads. I added the Rs and Ls where needed, but it's not showing back again. I think I can fix it on my own though, thanks for all your help the both of you ^^

I'm so glad! Good luck on your preset.

Check the size of each image file... if they are anywhere above 512x512 pixels. resize em.
