Help with resources not 'showing up'?

[Lazer-Bunny]

Okay so, my game has all of it's sprites, enemies, faces, and pictures made from scratch by me.
I have watched several tutorials and I have put all of the resources in the correct image folders in my project's files. Then when I go to use a specific sprite or faceset it doesn't show up in the scroll bar.

They are in the faces folder

But MV doesn't notice them

Only SOME show up in the scroll bar
They are all the same size and they are all png files, why do some not show up?

You could try deleting your images while RMMV is closed, then copy and paste them directly into the project folder or re-import them using the Resource Manager. If it still fails, this is apparently a "known" issue with only some resources not showing up and not others.

Maybe is ".PNG" your problem? MV make also a difference by .ogg and .OGG. He cant use .OGG but .ogg. Maybe thats also by you with png.

Indeed.

MV needs to be closed then reopened when adding anything to the active file folders. Most times, a restart does fix the issue.

As @Companion Wulf said, it could be the issue with resources not showing up, but I personally have not encountered this issue.

@Alanshor, in this case, the .png filename shouldn't really be an issue, as I've used resources with .png extensions with no trouble. It could however, be an issue with specific file placement, or the filename itself (some files need a ! or $, etc, in front of them to be recognized in certain areas of MV).

Hope this helps @Lazer-Bunny :)
