Title: Converting AHII Offline Missions To AHIII
Post by: 100Coogn on December 21, 2016, 02:54:02 PM

Is it possible to convert our older AHII offline missions to AHIII?
I just found a folder with a bunch of AHII films and offline missions.  I'd like to convert the missions
to AHIII, instead of starting from scratch.  They are quite huge...

Thanks
Coogan

I tried this with very limited success.  As near as I could determine, you just open the AHII mission .mis file with the new editor, make some change and then save it and create a new .res file.  One in air spawn mission seemed to convert, the rest crashed when I tried to run them.  This was back in the late beta days by the way and for a while all the missions that had ground takeoff were crashing on spawn.  I have not tried it lately.
