invalid kyra.dat version

scoriae · Post by **scoriae** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 11:55 pm

When trying to run the french version of Legend of Kyrandia I get an error message claiming that i am using the wrong version of the kyra.dat file. I made sure that I had the one currently listed on the downloads page. Specifically, it says I have version 17, while it requires version 18.

I have no trouble with my english copy of the game using the same dat file. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thank you.

Doesn't ScummVM 0.11.0 include the appropriate version of kyra.dat already?

The correct game data files are in this folder:
http://scummvm.svn.sourceforge.net/svnr ... gine-data/

As I said already, we REALLY need to get rid of the files in the /engine-data folder (as they're outdated now and serve no real purpose other than to confuse people) and link to /scummvm/trunk/dists/engine-data instead, many people can be (and will be) confused - I've made the same mistake myself too...

md5, good point. Now, just formulate this in an email to scummvm-devel or as a feature request tracker item, and it won't get lost / won't be forgotten. As always, pointing out things on IRC or the forum is not very effective
