How I load a PCG file?

Post by robbie50 »

My Kronos don't load it from a memory stick....... :?:
What do I wrong?
I've read the quick start guide page page 24-25

Try from a SD card ... if that works then it must be related to the USB stick itself. Maybe it's formatted with FAT32 instead of FAT16. Try to format the stick on the M50 before usage.

Can you format the stick on the Kronos itself? Or select FAT on the PC as alternative.

Are you sure you formatted the drive via the Kronos? Also have you tried a different memory-stick?

Also, 'file unavailable' can mean the file is corrupt.
Try saving a new PCG file and try to reload it.

If you still have problems after re-downloading it could you please inform me which patch it is concerning and I need to check it works, I have atleast tested opening most of them with PCG-Tools and it seemed to work fine atleast. Also you could test with other PCG files and see if they work incase the USB-drive is the problem

I also loaded all of them with PCG Tools, however, PCG Tools only extracts the data the tool needs and the Kronos needs more.

What might be possible is that the USB stick was taken out unsafe or before it was ready with writing (not flushed writing fully).
