oob conversion

[harlikwin]

Is there any way to convert an oob from a old version of SPMBT to the current one? Or a way to get the old dos version of mobhack?

The oob I have is V2.0 but I'm not sure if its the old dos game or the current winmbt game (I suspect dos).

In either case mobhack really doesn't like it. It will open and the unit names are present but no stats. Weapons seem to be unchanged, and the formations are empty (should have formations)

The oob was made in July of 03.

Thanks for any help.

If the OOB is dated July of 03 it's the old DOS version and MOBHack has undergone a number of changes since then and the converters are long gone. Someone on the forum might be able to send you an old copy of MOBHack

Thanks DRG I'll post a request. I figured it was the old dos format but my memory was a bit fuzzy.

I've found that DOS orbats work fine in SPMBT. There are a few changes in unit classes, but by and large, the orbats are the same. Also, DOS orbats ver 3 or later work fine in the Win version.

Thanks Troopie, but this orbat is 2.0 and it most certainly doesn't work. The current mobhack will read it, and the unit names are there but no stats (all 0).

Did you get a Dos 2.0 version? I don't have anything earlier than 3.0. Mobhack comes with the game. And I had forgotten that 2.0 can't be read with a later version. Sorry.

NP,

Also someone sent me a 2.0 one so I can read/update the orbat to current standards.
