The warnings refer to emitter properties added in 1.2.119 for particle stretch and orientation. Are you perhaps running a project built with an editor >=1.2.119 with an older dmengine?

I agree that the warnings are not very informative or even useful, we should maybe remove them or rephrase the message logged.

I absolutely am. Thanks for clarifying.
