[BrowEdit] Error opening grf

[Althezier]

Hello!

I'm having problems with BrowEdit, actually, I tried all recommended versions but it seems the problem is with my data.grf.

I downloaded my client from this post: 

When I open the BrowEdit it displays a message saying: FS: Error opening grf C:\RO\data.grf

But it reads normally the rdata.grf, because it also shows right after: FS: Done reading grf C:\RO\rdata.grf

I didn't modify the data.grf nor anything else, I just extracted the files and tried running BrowEdit. I also tried updating first and then run it, but nothing changed.

Any ideas? =/

Try to open your "data.grf" with GRF Editor and press "Ctrl+Alt+S". It helped me with opening new GRF in "GRF Tool".

Just tested with the same data and it indeed gives an error.

Did you test it with other kRO data.grf from 2018? cause i'm using a data.grf from 2017 and its working fine with my browedit.

I didn't test with any other kRO data.grf. Does it really matter the year of the data.grf, apart from the new maps resources? I'm gonna download a 2017 version if that's the problem. I need to use BrowEdit for just a few tweaks in a map or two, and they are old maps. But hey, thanks for testing it out and telling me this data is not working.

Just tested Functor Method, works fine now. Thanks.

Solve the problem.. extract your grf using GRF editor then save it on gryff svn 2.0

Your GRF shouldn't be above 2 GB in size. You can split the file in 2, and have map in one, materials in another one!
Browedit can't read a GRF above 2 gb ><;
