Hi!

So we have played the old FFERPG(0.8.7) that was available in our PC for 3 days and we almost finished the game when we discovered that there's a new version of it available for WC3 1.26 like 0.9.4. We don;t want to restart because it is tiring. So is there any way to use that 0.8.7 save file to 0.9.4 or later? Even if it means to use maps between 2 versions or placing the code in the files of the map.

Thank you!

Is the save file one of those text files in Documents/Warcraft3/CustomMapData? If so, it's just a text document and I don't think there's any way to really screw anything up besides deleting it, overwriting it, or changing it's name.

Edit: Don't do it.

Do not bother. The "newer" versions of Final Fantasy Epic RPG were just made by a very unskilled and childish map maker who added broken and rigged heroes for the sake of it.

ILYAS (sorry if there is a typo) made the only and last official versions. When he stopped making the map it effectively died as the quality of future releases went down under the guidance of the person they gifted the map to.

No since it pre-dates file I/O based save/load systems.

The save/load system was changed to accommodate the new broken heroes as well as the new maximum level of god knows what (probably over 9000). It also broke saving and loading in many cases because the code became so long it could no longer be input into chat fully.
