Warning: Irrlicht ... version does not match ...

[mrlak55]

When I try to run a game I built (https://github.com/Fluorohydride/ygopro), I get this warning: "Irrlicht Engine version 1.8.1
Warning: The library version of the Irrlicht Engine (1.8.1) does not match the version the application was compiled with (1.8.0). This may cause problems."

I think it causes the game to crash - a window is visible for a short time, but then disappears. How do I fix this? Where do I change what version is the program compiled with?

Any help is appreciated.

You get this if the game was compiled to Irrlicht 1.8.0 but you have an Irrlicht 1.8.1 dll on your system (or .so instead of .dll if you are on Linux). Althought those should still be compatible, so maybe there's an additional problem like it got compiled with another compiler (or we messed up in 1.8.1 - we try to be careful but don't do much downward compatiblity testing).

Solution is either to recompile the game or to ensure the game finds the correct dll (how to do that depends on the OS which you are using). If you have already compiled it yourself then there is a mimatch between the headers and the shared lib (dll) you are using. Which usually happens if you have the wrong include path set or if you have more Irrlicht version on your system.
