On the side, I've been playing with building a script to iterate through an entire (real) robot backup and ASCII-convert all the convertable files. And I've gotten to the point where it works perfectly well, except on one file: POSREG.VR.
For that one file, KConVars returns:
My old RoboGuide install (from before my license expired) includes the correct core software version (8.33), and like I said, kconvars works on all the other .io, .sv, and .vr files in the backup. I've also tried making fresh backups of the robot, but I still get the same error.
I also tried it on a backup from a completely different robot of the same version, and got the same error.
I also got the same error trying on backups of robots with other versions, always on POSREG.VR.
Just for sanity, I tried deliberately using a backup from a robot whose version I don't have in RoboGuide, and got a different error, "Unable to load old library."
Anyone else ever run into this?
