[pmnox]

I'm getting following error when trying to start map 4 of Tight Spot scenario pack.

Bad map version. Map version is 0.4.1-1, accepting only up to 0.0.75-0.

Hello,

thanks for the report. What Factorio version are you running? Version is written in the About window accessible from the main menu. Scenario pack only works with the latest Factorio version (0.4.1).

I'm using the 64 bit version of Factorio for Windows. I also tried to use the 32 bit version, but everything works the same.

I downloaded the 0.4.4 version of the scenario pack. I know that I have the correct version of the game, because other maps tight-spot 1 to 3 work fine.

Release: alpha
version 0.4.1 (Build 4573, win)

I tried to replace mods\scenario-pack\campaigns\tight-spot\level-04\blueprint.dat file with mods\scenario-pack\campaigns\tight-spot\level-03\blueprint.dat file.
This allowed me to start the map without getting that error message. So the issue is with the mods\scenario-pack\campaigns\tight-spot\level-04\blueprint.dat file.

I tried to open map level-04 with the map editor and I'm getting the same error message as before.
Opening level-05 doesn't work either.
However, level-01, level-02 and level-03 can be opened without any issues.

Hmm. Perhaps it got corrupted somehow, perhaps you might try redownloading it.

[pmnox]

I opened the hex editor to read the first few bytes of Factorio\mods\scenario-pack\campaigns\tight-spot\level-04\blueprint.dat

I can see that the first 8 bytes are: 00 00 04 00 01 00 01 00
I think that this indicates the version number of the map editor used.


I also tried to use the map editor to make my own map. After reading first 8 bytes of Factorio\scenarios\savetest\blueprint.dat

The first 8 bytes are: 00 00 04 00 00 00 01 00

I think that maps level-4 and level-5 were edited with a version that is newer than the currently released alpha version.
So I guess I need a version that is newer than mine 0.4.1 - build 4573.

I already tried redownloading the scenarios. I'm getting the same issue.

So you could download the 0.4.3 version of the scenario pack and use the hack described in that topic. I guess the problem will solve itself when factorio 0.5 is released

I tried to use a hex editor to change the first 8 bytes from 00 00 04 00 01 00 01 00 to 00 00 04 00 00 00 01 00.
Now I'm getting a different error:

Where can I download the 0.4.3 version? Only the version 0.4.4 is available for download from the main page.

I just noticed that, too.

I'll send you a PM with the two blueprint.dat files.

Good analysis! That is what exactly happened. We released scenario-pack bugfix after the regular release and afterwards there was a bugfix only release for the scenario pack. This included changing the blueprint.dat files. And they were generated by the dev version of factorio (which has already changed the map format back then).

Sorry for the inconvenience. These issues will go away with the scenario pack + factorio release 0.5.0 that will happen today (we are just preparing it).

awesome - news about 0.5.0
was going crazy and checking every hour since yesterday

We originally wanted release yesterday, but tuning and testing the auto updater brought unforeseen complications
