cannot load v4.5 projects in v5

Post by maky325 »

Hmm...new system installed. I am getting following errors when i try to load some of v4.5 projects(see attachment). Weird... After i click on "OK" i get next screen. After i click "ok" on next screen project is loaded but it is not usable. I can r-save it but that is not helping when i try to load this new saved project. I am getting same error. Some v4.5 files load without any error, some "load" with this and i can't do anything with project. These v4.5 files are loading in v4.5 without any error. Any ideas?

Windows XP, fresh install, latest scope v5, no v4.5 previously installed, scope 5 installed in default directory..

Well if anyone is interested or if anyone will run in to same issue here is how to "fix" it:

I am not clear how is this connected with issue but all you have to do is to edit cset.ini in Scope5 directory. Be sure to make a copy of cset.ini just in case. Open cset.ini with notepad, find "LOAD" area and from this:

[LOAD]
AlignSurfaces=1
LoadMixer=STM 1632.dev
LoadMixerEnabled=1
LoadDefBoard=0


You need to change it to this (of course if you have two cards like in this DAW in which i am working on...i've added old very old Luna to boost some DSP):

[LOAD]
AlignSurfaces=1
LoadMixer=STM 1632.dev
LoadMixerEnabled=1

[board0]
boardid=1

[board1]
boardid=0

LoadDefBoard=1


After that i can load v4.5 project in v5 without error. If you are too paranoid about leaving cset.ini edited you can then re-save project in v.5 and then revert back to original cset.ini. Project will load without error.
Strange way to fix this but it is working.. I don't know why it is happening but for fixing few old v4.5 projects and to make them load in v5 it will work.

Kind regards..
