MekHQ is a java helper program for the MegaMek game that allows users to load a list of entities from an XML file, perform repairs and customizations, and then save the new entities to another XML file that can be loaded into MegaMek.
[X] I've tested the issue against at least the latest MILESTONE version
[X] I've asked on the MegaMek Discord about the error
[X] I've reviewed the BattleTech rules and MekHQ documentation, and I've confirmed that something isn't working as intended.
[X] I've searched the Github tracker and haven't found the issue listed
Severity *
Low (Minor/Nuisance): Minor glitches or cosmetic issues that don’t affect gameplay and occur rarely.
Brief Description *
Very minor conversion issue.
When importing a campaign from 0.50 to 0.50.01 with the mek changes, TO&E icons formerly with 'mech' in the name no longer load as their names are now mek. A converter should be added for these .png names to ensure backwards compatibility.
0.50:
0.50.01:
N.B: when opening the campaign save, do not worry about missing portraits. My campaign uses custom portrait packs for some personnel.
Steps to Reproduce
Load the attached save in 0.50 release - see that the TO&E has full icons.
Load the attached save in 0.50.01 latest nightly
View the TO&E - any mek related icons do not show on the TO&E elements
