Hi all,
I installed the latest daily build of scummvm (06-02-08) and trying to start Lure of the Tempress i receive the error:
"Incorrect version of lure.dat - expected 1.29 but got 1.28"
I downloaded the latest version from
http://scummvm.svn.sourceforge.net/svnr ... gine-data/
but the error is still the same.
Any advice ? I'm not so familiar with scummvm and perhaps i'm missing something...
Thanks in advance.
Maurizio.
Problems with lure.dat version
Moderator: ScummVM Team
Try using the latest stable release of ScummVM instead?

The thing is that you should use the version that was distributed with the version of scummvm you got. If you happen to have an older version of lure.dat in your lure folder already, then that will be in conflict with the correct version (which should be included in the scummvm installation package).

The most likely cause of the problem is that you've either downloaded an out of date version of lure.dat, which seems unlikely given that you post that you got the download from the SVN, or that as Anotherguest said, you may have an older version of lure.dat lying around elsewhere on your hard disk that ScummVM is opening rather than the copy you downloaded.
I'd recommend you double check if you have any other copies of lure.dat present on your hard disk and either remove them, or replace it/them with the copy you downoaded.

I tried to find out which version the current lure.dat in SVN is (1.28 or 1.29?), however the revision history does not give any indication of that - might be worthwhile to list that in the comments in the future. (or am I just turning blind?)dreammaster wrote:The most likely cause of the problem is that you've either downloaded an out of date version of lure.dat, which seems unlikely given that you post that you got the download from the SVN

No, you're not going blind. I generally didn't mark the version number when committing changed lure.dat versions because I didn't really see any need for people to be going back to prior revisions deliberately - they'd only ever need the latest one. Additionally, the 0.11 release also contains the correct lure.dat version for the version of the Lure engine it includes.clem wrote:I tried to find out which version the current lure.dat in SVN is (1.28 or 1.29?), however the revision history does not give any indication of that - might be worthwhile to list that in the comments in the future.

It's simply unfortunate that in this case I suspect that he's still got the older Lure.dat version lying around from the 0.11, which is out of date for the SVN 0.12 code that he's now trying.
Going back to older versions might be useful for regression testing thoughdreammaster wrote: I generally didn't mark the version number when committing changed lure.dat versions because I didn't really see any need for people to be going back to prior revisions deliberately
edit: nevermind, just realized that that would also check out the respective lure.dat at the same time
Really thanks for all the answers, and sorry if I disappeared for some days.
I wanted to test the SVN version because I like to be "up to date" with all the softwares
I thought it was not a problems for "plugins" like lure.dat, downloading it from the "trunk" of the SVN, but I was wrong.
I'll try to fix, for now thanks again.
