Export ME2LE save for importing in old ME3. #27

Closed NakedValue closed 3 years ago

NakedValue commented 3 years ago

Could add an option to export an ME2 LE save in the ME 2 format, so that it could be imported in the old ME3.

As I see it, the only difference between the 2 formats is "me1_import_rewards: Me1ImportRewards," and the save version number. I was able to get an ME2 Le save to import into old ME3 by just skip serializing that Me1ImportRewards stuff and changing the version number.

Best regards.

This is indeed the case but, even better, you can import your ME2LE save into ME3LE and use this very save in ME3OT.

Ok. I have not tried this. Then consider my request useless. :) btw you write really clean code.

Thanks, I do my best to avoid swimming in a mess. ^^

Maybe you could have a FAQ entry (or a totally different wiki page?) detailing what changes and backward or forward incompatibilities thgere are there between OG and LE?
