Hi,
I did upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6 and now when I try to run my Quest it gives me a Fatal error.
The error occurs as soon as Solarus Logo disappears, anyone have a clue why it gives me this error?
I can't find anything in my main.lua, project_db.lua, features.lua, game_manager.lua, initial_game.lua or multi_events that can cause this problem but I might miss this.
Hopefully someone know why this error pops up, please help ;D

Fatal: Data file 'sprites/' is a directory
Do you have a file whose name could conflict somehow with the sprites directory? Like a sprite.lua or sprite.dat file?

Not that I know, I have attached two pictures which shows how my data and sprites folder looks like.
Is there anyway I can share my whole data folder?

You could use something like gitlab or GitHub, they're designed for sharing exactly that kind of thing.
I don't know what might be causing that error- but maybe think about that you recently did before you got it.
The other day, for example, I was trying to call "hero:start_attack()", before the hero had the attack ability. The error I got was "Error: Cannot find sound file 'sounds/.ogg'
So it might be like, your code is looking for
"sprites/"..[a variable]
but the variable is nil or equal to "", so it's trying to just use "sprites/" as a sprite, when in fact it's a directory.
Actually, thinking about those 2 errors, I think this explanation is pretty likely. Without seeing your code I couldn't tell you where, but probably somewhere in main, game_manager, or somewhere like that if it's being called as soon as the Solarus logo menu finishes.

This actually helped me, I did take the sprite folder from my backup and replaced the new sprite folder, I think the problem was that the new resource pack came with alot of new folders
e.g
Old resource pack was like this:data\sprites\menus
and then the .png and .dat files were in that folder
New resource pack was like this:data\sprites\menus\inventory
data\sprites\menus\solarus_logo
data\sprites\menus\title_screen
and then the .png and .dat files were in these folders
So a simple change of this and poof, it works! :)
Thanks alot for the help!
