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

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.

Interesting. I'll try it out. Thanks guys.

From what I understand you can compress files into Bink format using RAD tools for free. I've put a Bink video into a game by simply replacing the original file.

What would be required is AGS to support Bink files. Now, it might be possible to get Bink to license the software to the AGS creator for free because it is freeware. They are selling it to for-profit companies. They mention, "Finally, note that these prices are for standard video games. Email us for simulators, kiosks, or other any non-game applications."

It is worth asking them.

P.S. Loving AGS. I'd love any and all video support.

This is my first post so give me a chance.

I'm wondering if it is possible to let a player enter cheat codes during gameplay. Basically quick entering of keystrokes anytime during the game to unlock cheats/secrets. I wanted to throw in an easter egg using the Konami code but I've got no idea where to start.
