I combined all the experiments so that it would be in one file, but I'm actually using the batch feature to randomize them. Does batch work in 4 also? Thank you for all your help! Yes, your <batch> elements should work fine under Inquisit 4. However, don't take my word for it -- download and install Inquisit 4 Lab via https://www.millisecond.com/download and run your scripts through it.

I've programmed my study using the free trial version of Inquisit 5, but our lab only has a license to run Inquisit 4 as a web experiment. Is there any way to convert my script to Inquisit 4, or do we need to purchase a new license? Thank you! No, there is no way to convert it automatically. What you'll have to do is go through the script manually and replace any Inquisit 5-specific syntax features you may have used with their Inquisit 4-syntax equivalents (insofar as any equivalents or near-equivalents exist). If you attach the script here (click +Insert -> Add File when posting a reply), I should be able to tell you what needs changing and what -- if anything -- cannot be implemented in Inquisit 4 syntax. Thank you so much! Inquisit 4 syntax has no <paramaters> element; you can use <values> instead. That's the main change required. The attached revision should work under Inquisit 4.
