Description

Certain operations in the toolset will cause files to be exported that can't be packaged into ERFs due to filename restrictions (ERF doesn't like filenames with two dots). Examples include:

  • .gpu.rim files, generated when posting level layouts
  • .mor.xml files, luckily they're not needed

See [1] for a forum thread where this bug is discussed.

Workarounds

The files that can't be packaged into ERFs can still be manually inserted into the DAZIP file using ordinary archive-manipulating programs, causing the installer to extract and place them in the correct locations when the DAZIP is installed.
