What does this mean?

I try to fire up Bankler and get a popup window while it is loading. "This mission is newer than this editor. Please use a more recent editor version or continue at your own risk." with an OK button to click. So I click it and I can't 'continue' because DCS is locked up. I have to go to Task Manager to shut down DCS. Still on 2.56 and this is a new download of the Legacy version of Bankler's. This started last week and my thought was delete and reload Banklers but that hasn't helped. I have no idea an 'editor' is in this context.

Missions created in 2.7 (Open Beta) are not backwards compatible with 2.5 (Stable). I assume because of the new weather, and possibly some other things.

So to make sure I understand, I have been flying Bankler for maybe 2 years now, and have downloaded updated versions along the way. A week or two ago I did the same thing and now it doesn't work. There are 3 versions now and I downloaded the most basic one, no supercarrier or T-45. It sounds like they are all created in 2.7 and I won't be able to fly again until 2.7 becomes the stable version?

do you have the older version of the mission you were using previously?

you can also try opening this newer mission with your (older) version of the mission editor, then resaving it.... just as a temporary solution.

Random...no I don't have the older version. I learned a lesson here I guess -don't delete the old one until confirming the new one works. I am not real well versed w/ the mission editor but will give that a try. Nothing to lose. Thanks for the idea.

Tried opening in the Mission Editor and same thing. Green bar goes about 3/4 and stops and I get the same popup. Will check in w/ Bankler.
