CursorFX v4 compatible with v2 ?

Hi guys, I'm on Windows 7, and using CursorFx v2. Will a cursor made in v4, work with v2 ? The reason I ask is because 2 recent themes by Boneheaddb don't work for me, meaning, the theme doesn't change. Any suggestions ?

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

No, one should not expect them to.

Why? It's normal for most applications that you cannot open them in older versions because the formats have more features and have been further developed. I would be surprised if newly made windowblinds would perform flawlessly in older versions.

Jan, that makes sense. Now, vice versa, if I install v4, will the older Cursorfx themes work ?

I have not tested all Cursors theme that available in CursorFX Wincustomize CursorFX Library, https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/cursorfx , but I do know most that I have tested xxx.CursorFX files work with CursorFX v4.

Thank you,

Cursor FX Plus Cursors should work with NEW cursor FX or the whole thing is idiotic... -ALL those old cursors not usable anymore?? -Surely this was not the idea when released.

-Reason for me saying this is because some have had issues with my newly uploaded cursors.

-I am STILL working in "old" Cursor Fx Plus, as I think the issue to get the cursors skinned for the "old" version of Cursor FX compatible with the New one one is Important. 

-A couple of cents from me again ;P

You're absolutely right, Neone6. Why would anyone buy the new version if it wasn't compatible with the older themes ?

Who said that they were not compatible, Neon6?

Yes, all old cursors should work with CFX4.
