Trouble Accessing font with LOAD_ASSETS with GD2

[jgrant911]

I have been trying to use the LOAD_ASSETS() tool to get access to a subset of a font (numbers and the ":" character for a clock display on my GD2). I have been using the procedure and test program recommended at gameduino2.proboards.com/thread/189/custom-font to test but despite trying a number of variations, have been getting the same errors. In researching possible solutions my only leads were possible update/release incompatibilities but I think everything is up to date. Full disclosure: my programming level is only adequate so it could be something simple I have overlooked!

Any help would be appreciated.

I have the following error results:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, this looks like a version mismatch. Updating to the latest version (1.0.2) should fix this:

That solved the problem. You nailed it in one, as usual James!

Thanks for you quick response.
