Can't Open Game.rxproj?

[yayacomma]

Hi, I have a problem when I open Pokémon Essentials in my RPG Maker XP - instead of opening, it gives me this message. How do I fix it? I've extracted the files and they're in their own folder.

I see you extracted the files, did you extract them into your downloads folder?

 

[yayacomma]

Yeah, I did. Is that the right place?

It's because the formatting in the folder's names. Renaming the folders from "Pokémon Essentials {VERSION} {DATE}" to the same thing (or whatever) without that "é" in "Pokémon" will resolve your issue.

For some weird reason, you can open it if you open up RPG Maker by itself first, and then "Open Project", even with this. Ruby has weird problems with non-English characters
