Update project form CP8 to CP9

[Admired_impression0D45]

Hey!

I've ran in to a bit of a sticky situation.

I've made a huge project with a lot of coding.

I needed to upgrade the project from CP8 to CP9.

Thou this is where I ran into problems.

Every piece of code I've made is no longer working.

So, my question is.

Is there a way to upgrade a project from CP8 to CP9, and still keep the code, mostly advanced actions.

Thanks in advance!

Nothing really changed in advanced actions work flow, except some small things like the ability to add timing to Apply Effect, and the new command 'Delay....'

I have been updating projects, when necessary, and never did see issues at the level you seem to have 'Every piece of code'?? Did you not use shared actions, so much more efficient? Because you could just re-apply them if needed. Can you give some more details or examples of the broken code?

Hopefully you kept the original CP8 project files unchanged.

This is a known issue with the upgrade to Cp9 and was resolved with a hotfix patch.

Forgot to ask about the version number, that hotfix is already so long ago....
