So since the version switch my grp is a hot mess! I had everything running pretty good and what I thought was a good basic understanding of what im doing here. Now I can not get anything to work properly and its because of the version mismatch. I tried to download the conversion plugin with no luck, as soon as I was on the page I might as well have been looking at and trying to read Chinese . If anyone could explain to me in dumb dumb terms how to fix my ini version mismatch it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Boston

Problem - KISS version mismatch help

No I might have mis read but thought it said somewhere you could convert old ini files to the new kiss 11 format by using another .mac . Most of my ini files used conditions so the mac was not working properly. Its all good I figured out a work around I did not really want to do, but I took new ini files and re wrote all 6 ini files from scratch. Took me about 9 hours yesterday was trying to avoid that. I appreciate the responses I am not new to MQ2 but not a coder by any means.

Sometimes your method is the best course of action.
Somewhat similarly I rewrote 6 character INI files just yesterday! (I run 2 machines most of the time and use SyncToy to keep the MQ2 folders in sync. Sometime yesterday I used it wrong and obliterated 2 weeks worth of work fine-tuning my character INI files. So I had to basically do them over from scratch!)

Goodness everyone, if you need to convert, use the KA 10 to 11 macro or /plugin mq2kisstemplate then do /maketemplate
I know MQ2KissTemplate converts the conditions for you and outputs it to a separate file. I believe Ctaylor's does it on the same file.

Above are links to those respective resources. If they aren't doing what they are designed to do, please post a bug on their respective discussion boards so that we are aware and can look into the issue.
I see that CTaylor says KA 10 to 11 doesn't convert commands from old style to new style. I wasn't aware the format changed, so it's worth noting that KissTemplate does not attempt to do this currently. Though I might need to look into that as being added.
