Transferring saves from 0.07 to 0.08

Post by Lubor Kolar »

Is it possible? I was on 12th floor and I upgraded to 0.08 and my savegame doesn't work anymore. I would like to explore whole dungeon and I don't want to begin from scratch and because new features (wall tapping, better monster AI, bugfixes etc.) I would like I preffer to do it in 0.08

That's a good point...to George: I am sure you stated somewhere that you were working towards a stable platform so that saved games could be transfered from version to version - how close do you reckon that is?
Was unable to (permenantly) kill off ian_scho (Haynuus), Ameena, oh_brother (Westian), money (Falkor), raixel (Petal) and Lord_Bones (Aurek) in the DM D&D game Time's Champions!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO MADE THE GAME WHAT IT WAS - GREAT!

It's becoming alot more stable. There were some small changes from V0.07 to 0.08 so I'm afraid that they're not compatible. I'll try to keep the format the same for the next release but will need to change it again for the one after that (which will cope with dual entry points for new adventures and imported characters). After that it should be it though - or at least I can't think of anything else that needs to be changed in it!
