grf error

[patr3k]

Can someone help me with my grf? I'm using grfbuilder-0.1.30. I created data folder and put all the files i needed. Then i clicked new then filename of my grf then merge dir. After 100% success, i clicked close. Then i used my grf to my server after awhile i wanted to open my grf file using gfrbuilder, I got this error:

You usually encounter this problem when you have encrypted your grf file or one of the patches you have added, i.e. may have been run through SecureGRF or the built-in grf encrypting software of Harmony. And as far as I know there is no way YET to view the grf file using the grf builder. (Unless of course you overwrite the patch you added without encrypting it.)

Try GRF Tool. Sometimes one of the tools won't work so I try the other one and that one does. Anyway, if the file does open with GRF Tool, try extracting just one file, like a .bmp, from it. If that file is just white and cannot be opened/viewed, it means the file is corrupted, probably because as MissMaia said, it was encrypted. Always keep an original version of your GRF or data folder on your hard drive.

I did not encyrpt any. I am using CalciumKid's basic rathena data folder and make it to grf. I haven't add any files yet. And i triend grf tool, the grf i made opened. Also i tried to extract 1 file, i didnt get any errors.

Hmm.. you haven't add any files yet, so I think that you've created a grf based on using just a txt file

Example steps you did, maybe?:

1.) created a .txt file named yourdata.grf

2.) then you opened the GRFbuilder and planning to open the text file which is not a true grf and before these your were planning to insert something in that .txt file which is wrong.

Steps to create a .grf file using grf builder

1.)To properly create a grf you just need to click the "New" button then name your grf

2.) then press the "Merge dir" button then choose what files do you want to have in your grf.

Please refer to this rAthena Wiki link below.

If you have a hex editor on hand, you could also check to see if this is in the Header of the grf file. If not then the grf is false.

This Hex should match up as well.
