Transcendence

The version strings for mods are still broken; ie, you cannot specify even 1.05; it refuses to load. This is particularily a problem with certain dockscreens (from 1.04, noted by Atarlost), and mods with the new AutoTargeting Devices, which would need to have properly definable mod version strings.

Its this thing btw:
<TranscendenceExtension UNID="0xE314FFFF" version="1.05">


Edit- this is even worse than in 1.04 given that 1.04 worked with version strings for previous ones like 1.03, but 1.05 chokes on 1.03, as noted by PKodon.

The following version strings nolonger function:
1.01
1.02
1.03 (This one did work in 1.03, as confirmed by PKodon)
1.04 (This one never worked)
1.05 (This one should work)

I found future versions like 1.1 do however work

edited, turns out that pkodon wasn't using 1.04

Ok, 1.01 is oddly enough not affected by the bug that allows 1.1 to be accepted as valid.

However 1.01 also has a bug where it refuses to load its own extensions. >.<

Hold on, something fishy is up with PKodon's report. 1.03 doesn't work with 1.04 either, so I'm wondering what version he was using his mod on.

Can anyone find a version where 1.03 works as a mod version string? Because PKodon got it working, and I can't.

Clarification:

I did not get it working in 1.03, I looked at 1.03 and still had the version string 1.0.

Also, what seems to have happened is that, for some reason, while working on the FalconCV mod in 1.04, since I knew version strings were not working right, and it wouldn't take 1.04, I put in version string 1.03, but then NEVER TESTED IT (because I got distracted working on a weapon in another file in the mod). However, when talking with Wolfy on IRC, and looking at my code, I "thought" I had had it working before.

Now, it does not make sense to have to use 1.0 as a version string, when, as Wolfy says, you are using functions and strings not valid in earlier versions. So, that needs to be repaired, pronto.
