Questions about data.txt - TheRoot - 06-20-2014
My game when this loading gives an error for not finding a certain sprite. However this sprite in this folder and it worked smoothly before the last character I made. The game has limitations on the amount of id's? because when I remove one. dat even the data.txt file the game works normally. Please, help me

1.9 has about a 100-item limit, but 2.0 I think has 500. You must be packing a lot of content for it to be breaking LF2 if you're on 2.0.

I don't think it's about the id limit thing. I don't remember LF2 throwing the a "couldn't create art surface error" for that. The problem, I guess, is that you're running out of memory. You're loading a lot of screen sized sprites which result in the error. Can you confirm that? Is that your case?

I changed my executable by the 2.0a and he continues to give problems :/

Well.. You did not answer my question, but since you were using a 1.9 exe and changing to 2.0 didn't work, I can be sure it is not an id limit problem.
Solution:
Make your bigger sprite grids smaller in size. You might have to go through all your sprite grids, redo them, replace the sprites in the smaller squares, and reset the centers, bdys, itrs in the .dat for all the grids you've clipped.
A faster solution is to just get the A-Grid Clipper: http://www.lf-empire.de/forum/showthread.php?tid=8902
It is still going to take a while, specially if you're going to clip the sprites of the whole mod, but it is 1000x faster than if you would do it manually. Just place all your .dat files and sprites in the "input" folder, run the program, wait until it's done, and copy all the new generated .dats and sprites in the "output" folder to your mod.
