So far so good, what's the ruleset for converting v62=>v63 ??
when you join v63 with v62 you will get v63 with v62 data :cool:Quote:

I must inquire though. How exactly did you do this because once I started doing that (merge like you said), to see if I could produce a file exactly the same as yours, I could not... I did as follows:
-I took OFFICIAL pwi-v648 (v66) and downgraded it v66 => v63
-I then opened THAT (^) v63 (from official v66) for the merge as you stated you did
-I performed a merge with OFFICIAL pwi-v632 (v62) => (^) v63
I was thinking the result would == your file, but it !=. So, I am thinking you used different files, or different options? [the options I used were [X]Add New Items and [X]Replace Changed Items {I did not check remove missing items}]
Oh well, nonetheless I will post it here for share / evaluation (log included):
Here is the file I produced (and its merge log):
HERE you will find the elements.data AND the merge log
:D well this is the procedure:Quote:

that's what i did, it can not be reversed, because when you reverse the procedure you will get contrary (v63 inside structure v62), remember that we try to avoid new data from v63 but we let new data from v63 still exist :D
-I took OFFICIAL pwi-v648 (v66) and downgraded it v66 => v63 <--- this step will produce v66 data that is incompatible with 632 clientQuote:

-I performed a merge with OFFICIAL pwi-v632 (v62) => (^) v63 <--- which one did you open first? v62 or v63(66)? if v62 then you will get v66 data but if you open v63(66) first then you will get v62 data inside v63 structure :D
if you're trying to use the english PWI client, I have a tiny bit of advice to offer:Quote:

what i mean is no modded in client, use as it is, latest 648, just change the IP server, so what we need to mod is server side...Quote:

If you replace the EXE and DATA's guess what, it's now CN client :ott1: Why else do you think if you try to use a v63 .data with real PWI .EXE it will immediately CRASH. Why do you think that if you try to use v62 or v66 w/ the CN .EXE IT will immediately crash. :wink:Quote:

Hope this clears things up for you on that one :ott1::wink:
This would be nice... So we can just use official PWI data's and client =\ (but in reality I do not see this happening TBH)Quote:

They do not hold any real significance to the client itself...
