Is there any info regarding this on the manuals?

Hi Arty
all to know is :
- use BMS Editor which is the only tool to manage the xml database
- you can edit manually the xml files (reserved for experts)
- you can build the old correspondant .bin files by applying “set g_bSaveLegacyDb 1” in your config file (with this line set to true : each time you open the game or you open the BMS Editor -> bin files are generated accordingly to the current xml files)

@Bad:

They are generated for usage with older 3rd party tools, but not used again by BMS. They need to be converted back to XML.
Just watch the forums sticky threads, various BMS members will add info about the proper supporting tools needed for various BMS data changes over the next couple of days. Not everyone is available at the Easter weekend, so just be patient.
Happy Easter!

Hi!
Is there any code similar to the “set g_bSaveLegacyDb 1” command to convert from .bin to .xml?
Or there is another process? -

Thanks Bad Boy. I though that button would work like the old “save to database” once the settings to save to .bin have been changed.

Hi guys, I need a quick help.
I changed the savelegacydb line to 1 in my cfg, saved it, and started then exited from 4.34.
The LE seems to work, because it’s not crashed like before, but I got another error message when I tried to open KoreaObj.hdr file: “Hdr Array #4 Overrun”. Then all CT Records seems empty. The CT Records list is there, the Parent numbers is there, but no data, all fields is empty. (I tried to save the UV layout of Spruance ship).Could anyone help me, which step I missed?

You need to extract the 3ddb and rebuild it in old format. Check the tools folder.
But as 3ddb is close to the 2GB limit, adding just one more model to an old format 3ddb might just crash BMS at next run. I experienced it myself during 4.34 development.

Thanks, I’ll try this.
