[solved] Compatibility between OpenSesame versions
Hi,
I'm working on MacOS, i'm very glad to see that version 3.0 is now available. Besides, i managed to open my old 2.9.X script and it works fine. However, when saving the experiment the only available format is .osexp. It would be very useful to be able to save the experiment in both formats. Indeed, experimental computers at my lab still run with 2.9.X version.
Is it possible to somehow convert the file ? Since i can open .opensesame.tar.gz file i guess it could be possible to save the data on this same format.

Hi Pad,
The file format actually hasn't really changed. Basically, if you have an
.osexpfile with files in the pool, you can rename it to.opensesame.tar.gz. If you have a script-only.osexpfile, you can rename it to.opensesame. As long as you don't use any functionality that didn't exist in 2.9.X, you should be fine. For a list of changes, see:However, this is not a good idea. If you will be running your experiment with OpenSesame 2.9.X, then it's best to develop it with that version as well.
Cheers!
