Greetings!
I'm trying to import my TOS character into TOS+.
The file has the extensions .msc, although it is only a fighter.
The TOS+ will not find the file.
Even renaming i to .tos will not do the trick.
I've read through the manual, the FAQ and the Wiki.
I couldn't find anything helpful for me.
Maybe I can find someone here, who can give me a hint, how to use my old character in the new TOS+.
Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot, Sildan

Unfortunately, there has not been any conversion tool made. If there are any software gurus out there who would like to examine the differences in format, I think many would be most appreciative, but so far, no one has offered, and Richard has stated that this will not be done.

Re: Import .msc characters in TOS+
If you're really in love with your old character you can open TOS and then open TOS+ side-by-side and then load you mcs into TOS. From there you can read your old character and just enter the relevant data into the new TOS+v2.02. It'll be a pain, it'll be annoying, but your character will feel fresh and new and he/she will thank you for making them new and improved; better.
Though some have asked, the "need" for a conversion system just doesn't exist. It's not likely it will happen. It's a minor inconvenience, but creating a conversion system would require more work than the demand appears to call for.

The Sheet is designed to simplify Character creation... So re-creating any characters in TOS+ based on an existing one in TOS FREE is simple.
This is why I will not 'invest' time for a conversion tool.
A 'direct' conversion wouldn't fully work anyways, as many things have changed.

Allright then.
However, I did come to think that there is no conversion tool, because nobody is talking about it anywhere.
Thanks for your posts anyway.
so long, Sildan.

Good post. I was going to ask if this was possible in the chat room. But a quick search got me to this post's answer. Tks !
