    Name of image appears instead of actual image

    [edited from support email]
    I'm putting together an input file for Direct RT. Almost everything works as it should except trials 3, 6, 7, 9. Instead of the actual picture of the first stimulus it shows the text where that file is located. For example on trial 3, instead of showing the picture titled "food all pixel 5" it writes on the screen "food all pixel 5.bmp". These are the only ones I have trouble with. All of the other stimuli show up correctly. My computer can even open the picture files so it is not that the file is corrupt.

    DirectRT will display the name of a requested image in place of the image itself if it can not find the picture file. First thing I would do is check the spelling of the filenames in your input file and make sure that they match exactly the name of the actual image files.
