Converting a scenario from one game engine to an other

Post by Elessar2 »

Trying to specifically load my WiE mod in W@W, but I get a "Please Purchase DLC: campaign could not be loaded" error. What DLC? I was expecting errors in the scripts, actually. There was an old thread on this IIRC, couldn't find.

That just looks like a mix up of the error messages as the campaign is not compatible in this case, e.g. going from one build to another, unfortunately.

One way around it is to export all the data from one game via the Editor, and then attempt to rebuild it, by importing it in the game you want to play it in.

You'll have to create a blank map of the same size in the new game via the Editor first, and then import the data. Then copy over the scripts, and custom bitmaps as needed as well.

Hopefully this helps,
Hubert

Yes. Won't exactly be a snap, but I can grasp the essentials.
