Transfer Heroes from DM to CSB

Post by Guest »

Hi,

Can somebody tell me how to transfer my heroes from DM to CSB?
I used the PlayDM-Atari.bat program to finish DM, transfered the saved game 'csbgame.dat' to program "PlayCSB-Atari.bat", and tried to use the UTILITY function. I then get a message "SAVED GAME ERROR"!
How frustrating!

Thanks for help.

This is an error in the csbwinv0.98 engine - if you go to the 'csbwin' forum, there is a thread near the top with a link to the latest programme version that will fix this that

Hi,

I'm sorry but I do not really understand where to get the updated version which will fix this "SAVED GAME ERROR". I downloaded DM and CSB from http://dmweb.free.fr/CSBForWindowsLinux.htm.
So I am lost.....
Help please....

Thank you

go to the first topic on the CSBwin forum

follow the 'dianneandpaul' link on the first post

near the bottom is a rar file called 'size4demo' - this is a dungeon.dat test package for some features, but it also has the latest csbwin.exe file - so download the file, open it, and overwrite your old csbwin file with the new one
