This should be a sticky, because I'm sure is going to ask this and I think it's important.
What are the key versions of AGS? That is, versions that drop an important feature and so on.
I remember the following:
2.2 - Last version with the original scripting system (I think? I'm not really sure. I used it to work on the old rob blanc games for the windows version, though!)
2.31 - Last DOS editor
2.4b - Last version that supports graphical scripts
2.62 - Last version with the original scripting system
2.7 - Object-oriented scripting and beyond!
Any more? Where can I get these, anyway? Basically I'm reinstalling everything on my computer and I want to have these in my AGS folder, because they're useful from time to time.
2.56 (??) - Regions Introduced
?
well, it's not that it's going to affect your game if you open it with that version
Oh, right, sorry.

I think a couple from your list are available on strazer's tidbits & snippets page (http://www.strazer.net/ags/tidbits.htm#history).
Just a question on this subject... What ever happened to AGS 2.63? I mean, I tested the BETA version, was the one that suggested some of the things that were implemented, downloaded and used the full version, and now it doesn't exist any more. I mean, every documentation I have read says that 2.63 never existed but yet I distinctly remember using it! ??? ??? ???
Since too many things had been changed, V2.63 was renamed to V2.7 during beta process. So, V2.63 is actually V2.7.
Oh! Thanks for clearing that up. I missed that part, but I had thought that 2.63 was officially released. Guess not... But 2.7 is way better anyway. ;D
