Project (2023.06) load failed despite conversion seemingly passing #7803

Description

Hello,

I cannot access my old game Piggy Stardust with the new IDE/Runtimes, because it can't be opened despite project tool conversion completing (I tried both automatic and also multiple other options). It still opens and builds with 2023.06 version of GM.

I complained on Twitter and was told to send in the projet for check and potential repairs. I always was juggling multiple GM versions, so something might've messed up deeply in the project files. Hopefully it still can be fixed and it also might help improve the Project Tool.

Thank you!

Steps To Reproduce

Try to open the project with 2024.8

Which version of GameMaker are you reporting this issue for?

IDE v2024.8.1.171 Runtime v2024.8.1.218

Which operating system(s) are you seeing the problem on?

Windows 10.0.19045.0

Unfortunately, the included YYZ does not have the full project - it only has some extensions and included files, there is no resource data.

Granted, ProjectTool should have failed this in the first place with a more descriptive error, but the project as it stands is incomplete. Would you be able to send in a more complete YYZ for us to have a look at? You can use the IDE's Upload a Bug/Sample option under Help to get a secure GitHub link that only GameMaker staff can see.
