Savegames in different Versions
Posted: Tue Jan 07, 2003 11:08 am
Hi
once again I installed different DM and CSB Versions. Well, CSBWin seems to be great.
However, I have a old savegame from the DOS-DM Version, which I'd like to use in CSBWin, without playin DM in CSBWin once again. (I could do it with eyes closed)
So I tried the most simply way. I took the dmsave.dat file, renamed it to csbgame.dat, copied it in the right place. => SaveGameError. While browsing the forums, I realized the problem with the little and big endian. However, as the savegame doesnt consist of eg integers alone, simply byteswapping doesn't help. So, two questions:
1. Is there an Editor for CSBWin? I could then make a new Party and change the stuff according to my savegame.
2. Is there an explanation of the savegamestoring in CSBWin? I could then create my own savegame-file.
