Script to re-save with latest version

Antidamage

Can the Spine.com component re-save Spine project so they're saved with the current version of the editor? Does this matter in any way for exporting, like is it a thing worth doing if your current Spine editor is newer than the version the project was saved with?

Hello, you should always be able to open older .spine files in the latest versions of Spine. However, older versions may not be able to do so because the newer versions often have features additions that the older versions would not be able to interpret.

For example, this runs Spine 3.8.97, loads the old.spine project file, and saves it as new.spine with 3.8.97:

spine 

---

update 3.8.97 

---

input old.spine 

---

output new.spine 

---

import

You can process multiple files in one run:

spine 

---

update 3.8.97 

---

input old1.spine 

---

output new1.spine 

---

import 

---

input old2.spine 

---

output new2.spine 

---

import

Note there's not usually much reason to resave a project with a newer version. You can just open the old .spine file with the Spine UI, or pass the old project file via the CLI to export it.
