Recast • Make your old extensions compatible with Kodular Fenix

Recast v0.2.0

Changelog

---

• Added ability to recast extensions in AIA files. Instructions for the same can be found in the first post:

  @Shreyash

  Recasting AIAs

  Starting with Recast v0.2.0, you get the ability to recast your AIA files as well. This reduces the manual work of
  re-importing every recasted extension in your project.

  1. Navigate to the directory/folder where your AIA is placed.
  2. Open your favorite terminal in that directory.
  3. Now, run the following:

     recast --input you_app.aia
     

     (Here, you_app.aia is the name of your AIA file)
  4. And there you go! All the extensions in your AIA are now recasted, and the new AIA can be found in the same directory with
     name your_app_x.aia .

  Note:
  When you import a recasted AIA in Kodular (or AI2), your existing project isn’t affected. Instead, a separate project with name your_app_x is created with all the existing work preserved.

• Recast now prints a more understandable message if recasting the given extension/AIA is not required.

Please make sure you are using the latest version of Recast (as of now, it’s v0.2.0). To check the version, run recast -V.

Read this:

Try running the following before the installer: [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

[Jinx]

[Jinx]

You are running it in the right place. Now go ahead and run the installation script.

@Jinx

But mine is the latest one but still error

I was unable to reproduce it with the latest v0.2.0. Does this happen only with a specific one or every extension? In either case, PM me the extensions that are showing this error on import.

@Shreyash thanks for your reply
i have tried one extension and it’s giving error

[Swakraft]

I also use the latest version of recast

[Shreyash (Shreyash Saitwal)]

I’ve identified the issue. Working on a fix.

[Anu10 (Anu)]

Why it is not saving in correct format as exe in my computer ?

It is saving as .EXE.PSDrop.unk

[Shreyash (Shreyash Saitwal)]

Not quite sure why that might happen.
Try removing the .PSDrop.unk prefix from the executable and see if it works. In case it doesn’t, just re-install Recast.
