DEBUG CHECK: Missing HeadEnt table

[Trakias]

I modified advdup2 to Rev4 instead of 5, because the server I use only accepts this version of files, but when I try to save a duplicate, it gives this error. The file is created, but when I try to open it, it says: File could not be decoded. (Missing HeadEnt table) Upload Canceled.

What should I do to solve this?

Can you give more info about the modification?

[Trakias]

I just modified this line, because from what I understood, it was possible to change the advdup Rev this way. But when I use it, I can't save anything, the created file is corrupted.
It was 5, and I set it to 4, which is the version that the server I play on uses.

I believe this doesn't work—AdvDupe2 only contains multiple deserializer (loading) revisions. For the serializer (saving), you're still using revision 5, but it's now being mislabeled as revision 4. You'd need to install an older version of AdvDupe2 or modify the serializer to conform to the revision (I could be wrong but I think the only difference is how the data is formatted).

[thegrb93]

Yeah, I think Denneisk is right. Why you even doing this in the first place?

[Trakias]

As I said, the server I play on uses this Rev4 version of AdvDup, so if I want to build a single player build and transfer it to the server, I can't, and the tool even crashes if I try to transfer a Rev5 file to advdup Rev4.
Could I have a version prior to Rev5?

It's 6 years old. The server should update.
