Wasn't this an issue in loader 5.11 or something, where it would always state a version mismatch because the game was reading the wrong value for the savefile version? Is it a possibility that slatteryc only has one loader installed, which is simply still on that older version? Last edited: 24/08/2021 at 13:54 by headshot119 Reason: None given Log in to reply |

That issue is still current – at the moment the loader only looks at the sim data compiler version instead of loader and sim data version. This affects both the warning dialogue and the "Technical Info" in the About dialogue ("Loader upgrade" will always show as false and "Sim upgrade" is only true when the compiler version changed after a sim data update).

Not consistent then. I don't get these warnings when reloading saves from the same (and newest) version. Last edited: 24/08/2021 at 13:55 by headshot119 Reason: None given Log in to reply |

There is indeed no warning if the version numbers match.

Dionysusnu in post 141339 said:As I read it, Jan was talking about comparing the wrong version numbers against each other - compiler versions rather than sim/loader versions. I haven't seen reports of errors that always appear - it seems to me those would have been caught rather early in testing. AJP in games Log in to reply |

Oh right, I should have read that post a little more closely before replying, sorry for the confusion. I was immediately thinking of the issue which is indeed still current (the version number check looking at the wrong kind of version) and had overlooked that that post was talking about something subtly different.
