Hi all - converting my C2 projects to C3 - it's worked great, except one game.

It uses Rex Rainbow addon CSV2Array. I installed the C3 version. All good.

But... when I try to open the C2 project, I get an error "The project you are opening uses the following addons that are not installed. Try installing these missing plugins, behaviors and effects and then re-open the project.Plugin CSV to Array (Rex_CSV2Array) by Rex.Rainbow"

But the C3 version IS installed.

Any advice? Any way I can force open the project and tell it to ignore that plugin? Any advice welcome! Thank you.

EDIT: I still can't get C3 to open a C2 project that uses Rex's CSV2Array but I was able to open the project in C2. So I guess I can eliminate where the old uses it and manually recreate it in C3. Not terribly neat but might work. If anyone has any more efficient way to do - please let me know thx!

As I know, there are 2 versions of the Rex Rainbow's csv2array plugin for C3:

1. https://github.com/erenertugrul/construct-plugins/raw/master/ported_plugins/plugins/rex_csv2array/dist/rex_csv2array.c3addon

2. https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/234/csv-array-c3-runtime

Install them both.

Then, open your project and find the events that are using the first plugin and replace them with the second plugin.

The first plugin is no longer working with C3. You can open your project but you cannot run (preview) it.

*Also, have in mind that the second plugin is not working with worker mode enabled.

Laughing14 Haha! Glad to have helped.
Eren Hi Eren! I tested it again, unfortunately it is not working.
I don't know why.. Maybe due to this? https://www.construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/plugin-sdk-10/third-party-addon-changes-156802

I posted a report and made a minimal project demonstrating the issue.
