    Okay, so I turned on my PC and opened up my Pokemon Starter Kit.
    I clicked on the project and it showed this error message: "Unexpected File Format"
    I did some research and nothing worked. Any help? If you need more details let me know.
     
    Did you extract the data first?
     
    Hmm, perhaps I should have mentioned that I already have been working on this for quite some time now, and that it just did this randomly. Yes, it is already extracted.
     
    Noooooo not sparkling yellow XD
     
    Oh, then I honestly have no idea what happened. Did domeone accidentally delete the progarm files for RMXP?
     
    First, you should have posted this in the essentials thread.

    I do have some help for you though.
    Please check to see if a new copy of essentials works on your computer.

    I have had this error before and if you can open a new copy, I can help you.
     
    I have had this same problem, and i'm sorry there is no happy anwser some has happened to rpg xp and it has craped it's self and stuffed up you're game. You can still open other games but i'm sorry you'res is gone.
     
    This sometimes happens when RMXP is closed improperly (for example, a power failure). Basically, at least some of your game data is corrupted. You can check through your data files to see if any are not corrupted (i.e. have a file size of more than 0).
    It's a good idea to back up your files regularly just in case this happens.
     
    I just replaced most of the untouched data files and then went on going.
    That fixed the problem.

    If you don't have backup data files, replace them with new ones.

    The problem appeared to me when RMXP crashed due to over usage of temporary memory.
