It refers to what encoding would thor patcher use. If the directories and files of your patch contains rubbish characters, then choose ascii.. If it contains korean characters, choose unicode. You cannot have both. If you are not patching any folder or file with special characters, then you can use either.

I have a problem in Thor patcher when i chose Ascii in RO-GRF Option.

Then , after the thor patcher patch my GRF , and i open it with GRF Tool , the files i patched is in Unicode style not in Ascii.

Is there a problem in here?

The files in grf should be in Unicode I.e euc_kr coarser. So yah it's normal, the Thor patcher. Asks whether the data u are packing is ASCII or Unicode.

Use GrfBuilder to create your grf. Make sure your files in data folder is in ASCII. GrfBuilder will convert it in Unicode then you can now create a patch files.
