Scratch

Have you uploaded the project? Maybe I could convert it to 1.2 

If you meen not working in the Scratch program.

I would suggest asking a teacher/Ict technician to try downloading Scratch 1.4 as an alternative 

It would also allow you to make better projects in school as you have all the new features 

If you meen not working on the website,

Then it would probably be you need the new version a
of Java installed 

No problem. To convert..
SHOOT, it seems it's not working.    If you can try to remake it http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Scratch_Previous_Versions <- Look at the bottom of the page and you should see a download for 1.2.1 , see if you can remake it with 1.2.1 

i would really like to avoid remaking it as i cant replicate the sprites i tried and have downloaded v.1.2 but i cant recreate the magic

well i ahve made all the sprites costumes scripts etc in v.1.4 and when i try to export sprites and then open then in v.1.2 it doesnt work

That would probably be why you see 

1.4 knows 1.2 exists but 1.2 doesn't even know what 1.4 is. So if you try and move something from the future version to the past version it probably won't work 

But like I said. Something made in 1.2 should be able to move to 1.4 with no alterations 

The reason why your 1.4 project won't work on Scratch 1.2 is because it can't read 1.4 projects.

Anything older than 1.4 can play on 1.4.

Same with 1.3 and older, but 1.2 was perfectly capable of opening in 1.1 and 1.0. The issue: Some character encoding for right-to-left languages (for 1.3 at least, maybe they just didn't see a use in making 1.4 backwards-compatible)

Strange!!!!!

It took me hours to make a podject and the deadline is soon

Very soon

What should I do

Cheddergirl might not think this is a necropost, but is been 3 YEARS since the last post.

That post was completely irrelevant to the topic. It is not asking about backward compatibility but instead on how to make a project which has a nearing deadline. 

So shouldn't it be a necropost? I guess we should just leave it up to the ST.

Since it's been a few years since the thread was started, we can safely assume that the OP's deadline for their project has long since past! I'm going to closed this thread as resolved since any further posts on the topic aren't really needed.
