protobuf format mismatch between this and current worldengine?

[AndyProk]

I've tried to use this project to import information from a world file into a Java program (to paint a more detailed river map and a lake map, for example).
But even replacing

public void loadWorld() throws IOException {
    InputStream is = WorldFileLoaderTest.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("seed_1534.world");
    WorldFile.World worldFile = WorldFileLoader.fromInputStream(is);
    assertEquals("seed_1534", worldFile.getName());
}

with

public void loadWorld() throws IOException {
    InputStream is = WorldFileLoaderTest.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("seed_17824.world");
    WorldFile.World worldFile = WorldFileLoader.fromInputStream(is);
    //assertEquals("seed_17824", worldFile.getName());
}

in WorldFileLoaderTest.java (after placing the freshly generated seed_17824.world next to seed_1534.world in the filesystem) results in

Tests in error: 
  loadWorld(org.worldengine.world.WorldPainter): Message missing required fields: name, height, heightMapData, heightMapTh_sea, ...

A quick look with ghex into both seed_17824.world and seed_1534.world reveals that they look quite different (obviously only showing the first couple of bytes):

0A 09  s  e  e  d  _  1  5  3  4 10 80 08 18 80 08  " 80 98 C0 04 0A 80

vs.

I tried the same with a much smaller file, with exactly the same results.

I am sorry about this issue.
Have you tried using this project to open files generated from WorldEngine? I suspect the protobuf definition available in this project need to be updated (the proto file).

[AndyProk]

That's exactly what I tried to do, yes.

WorldEngine 0.19.0 or commit b67e5668066e5c5044a75b8193c4e1e82f285435 to be exact.

I believe that I'm experiencing the same issue. Can I recommend marking this repository if it's not being maintained and recommending that folks generate their own sources from the latest protobuf source that corresponds with their version of the worldengine binaries?
