Error when importing files exported by Aseprite into Unreal Engine

[whirlwind0204]

Exported files from Aseprite produce 'unsupported file type' errors in Unreal Engine 4.27.2

Error occurs attempting to use them as a:

• Game Icon
• Editor Splash
• and Game Splash

Personal Workaround

Inputting an exported .png of my icon into an online convertor (.png to .ico) allowed it to be accepted as a game icon

Tested file types

.jpg (Editor and Game Splash)
.ico (Game Icon)

Aseprite and System version

• Aseprite version: v1.3.6, dev
• System: Windows 10 Home, Ver. 22H2

Additional Information:

I have found that despite the error persisting, the game icons do in fact show when launching the game

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create an Unreal Engine 4.27.2 Project
2. Enter Project Settings > Scroll down to Platform > Windows
3. Set the Game Icon, Editor Splash or Game Splash
4. If Editor Splash was set, it will show on relaunch - If Game Icon was set, it will show as the application icon when launching game in PIE

Thanks for this report. I was able to reproduce it.
