Trying to open a project with 4.9.2 but editor says it was created using different version. Wich version should I add if .uproject has
unrealengine_xxx_3350_215399
?
If you open the .uproject file in any standard text editor, the contents should specify the associated version, as in the following snippet:
{
"FileVersion": 3,
"EngineAssociation": "4.12", <--- there!
"Category": "",
"Description": "",
...
Super old post, but wanted to comment as I was looking for something similar.
To get detailed info on the version, go to [Engine-Folder]/Engine/Build/Build.version.
Here will be all the info you need on the engine version. The example below is for 4.26.2:
{
"MajorVersion": 4,
"MinorVersion": 26,
"PatchVersion": 2,
"Changelist": 15973114,
"CompatibleChangelist": 14830424,
"IsLicenseeVersion": 0,
"IsPromotedBuild": 1,
"BranchName": "++UE4+Release-4.26"
}

An unreal engine 4.0.2 project can be opened in Ue4.27 but a project of Ue4.27 cannot be opened in Ue4.0.2 . The projects are not backward compatible.
