Error: Load_room: old room format.

So I got this error before and doing a forum search lead me to the solution of deleting the room and starting over. I've gotten it a second time so now I figured it was worth posting about.

Here is the error:

Code: ags

Error: Load_room: old room format. Please upgrade the room.
Version: AGS 3.1.2.82

Now I'm using dropbox but every version of AGS is the same. I'm wondering what caused this error. I can't be 100% but it seems to happen after adding a new object in a room.

I can't be 100% certain but it seems to me that perhaps your room template is out of date. Did you by chance upgrade your project from an older version of AGS? If there is one try deleting the file "_blank.crm" from your project folder and see if that makes a difference.

[Steven_Wagner]

I have only used one version of AGS and that is the latest available version.

[monkey0506]

Does your game project folder have a file named "_blank.crm"? If it does try deleting that from your project folder and see if the issue persists.

If this is happening with a room that you created with the latest version, then it sounds like the file is corrupt. When this happens next, could you upload the CRM file for the room that's not working?

What's dropbox and what does it do to your files?
