failed to open file shopping_k-0.spr exiting application

hi guys !

hope you can help me please...

I keep getting this error when I open primo 2.4...

failed to open file shopping_k-0.spr exiting application

nav unworkable when this message appears..

any help would be greatly appreciated !

thanks guys !

You are missing the right resolution in the branding.zip. Open branding.zip and see what's in it.

480_272

Backup you app, and try to use this Branding.zip instead yours:
[Please Register or Login to download file]

If it does not work, export the shopping_*.* files from it, and import them into your branding.zip using this winrar version:
[Please Register or Login to download file]

Note: DO NOT extract the branding.zip, open it within winrar and import/export files as needed.

Thanks for that, but I've actually managed to fix the problem ! I can't actually believe that actually done it !

I was told many times that there were files missing, but nobody could actually tell me which ones they were !

So...

After a few hours of research, I did find out it was related to missing resolution files, but I didn't know what the resolution numbers were, then I did find out on another forum what the vital numbers were...320×240...

So I don't if was luck or good judgment... But what I did was copied and pasted all the files from the 480×272 folder into a new 320×240 folder and somehow managed to get it into the branding zip folder, which for a complete novice was a near miracle lol

So everything seems to be working fine at the moment !

You could have change only the directory name. but great you made it.

Change directory name ? You've lost me know !

Anyway I'm going slightly off topic now, and I most definatly need help !

I tried updating my maps, I put all the correct fbl files into the map folder, but when I go to the nav on my Chinese unit, the nav will start for 10 seconds then my whole unit locks up and you can't even use the radio etc...

Your help would be greatly appreciated on this one !

Thanks guys!

Sounds like a memory problem.

If you changed in branding.zip 480_272 to 320_240 and saved the branding.zip
I think less memory. Search for memory_limit sys.txt and play with the values.

I seriously doubt that a resolution change has anything to do with memory. Most [but not all] memory issues have to do with too much content trying to load at the start of the program.

I've still got the 480-272 folder within the branding folder ! Is it required or am I ok to delete it ?

I only had the missing res file problem after I tried to update the maps...everything was working fine until I tried to update maps, I even tried the new maps with primo 1.2 and I still had the same problems apart from the missing res files...

Don't. If it ain't broke don't fix it.
