Just a quick question - will my 1.13 ini file work with 1.15.2? I had that set up quite well.

I tried doing some stuff with the new one and got a crash on start-up. I know why, but still it would just be easier to use my old ini than start messing around again.

TIA

it should, but some things can work not like you expecting because of changes that was made since then. some strings will be not present in your ini, but they will appear with default values.

Okay, thanks - did wonder about new entries. Just wanted to be able to discount a crash due to incompatible ini versions.

It may not work, anyway, and I'll have to do the testing.

So much to do, so little time...

imo you can first copy the old eech.ini to another place.
Next
delete eech.ini, run game.
eech create a new ini file.And later, you can manually copy all the old lines from old eech.ini to new eech.ini.
but not all at once.You need to look and check what you can copy.Line by line.

Old ini surely references old GWUT, which is incompatible with the new one.
