Level Updater
This program updates your existing levels to be compatible with recent changes to the level editor.
As the RPG Maker is updated, sometimes the settings for commands get changed, resulting in old level files being incompatible with the updated system. |
To get around this, I created a little program that updates ALL existing levels to make them compatible.
Don't worry if you run it more than once, it only looks for incompatibilities. |
When To Use It
Each time you download a new version of the RPG Maker, run this program once to update your old levels.
After that, you don't need to worry. |
(The updater also makes a full backup of all the old levels, just in case the update doesn't work) |
What's It Doing To My Levels!?
It's basically a find & replace operation, done on a massive scale.
All it does is replace certain chunks of text with different chunks of text.
The game
itself should run again,
but seem unchanged. |
|
To date, these are the changes it makes:
Textbox changes:
REPLACE:
showBackground="true"
WITH:
background="swf/win_default.png"
REPLACE:
showBackground="false"
WITH:
background=""
REMOVE:
border="0"
border="1"
border="2"
Sound changes:
REPLACE:
typingSound="sound/silence.mp3"
WITH:
typingSound=""
