Hello everyone

Yesterday, I uploaded new Photofield "Ricketwil". Today I wanted to upload another one. Exported from RF9.5.

Following error occured:
Already tried:
- Export file again
- Reboot PC an Software, export again

Might the file be too large?

Thanks for helping

it might be a size issue but I doubt it. It would likely say file too large

I am wondering if it is a language issue. if the RFX file was exported from the german and the swaps is reading the files expecting english it might cause an issue.

perhaps try exporting your airport in a different translation pack. Or it could be in the file name special characters (ß ä ö Ä Ö Ü á é í ó ú ñ)


message for the devs
I exported the same airport it different translation packs (english and german). the g3x.enc is the same size (bytes) but the characters are different
 
Thanks for your ideas.

- language issue: yesterday it worked well with another photofield created with the same software. made no changes since...
- no special characters in the filename. I cannot create a file with eg. ä, software doesnt allow it...
 
A friend now "checked" the file I shared with him via Dropbox. The File is ok, works well on his simulator...

so still hoping for a solution... thanks
