[Other Question] Formspecies.dat missing?

    Players going through the demo of my game have noticed a bug where Formspecies.dat is missing when encountering 'form' pokémon (eg unown, etc)
    I know the bug is related to the game being unable to read the file from game.rgssad (using the encryption tool)
    I've tried placing the file in a Data folder for the players but the error persists.

    Is it possible to use both encryption and 'form' pokémon?
    Or is keeping all the files open the only way?
    Google seems to yield some people having similar problems but no apparent solutions...

    Thank you to whoever helps me 😊
