Blood - Undecrypted Map version 6 and Map version 7

[xBRYAN2000x]

Is there a way to convert Blood map version 7 to 6 to run on early versions of Blood?
Just woundering

I'm not sure where the post is, but someone ported all the blood alpha maps into regular blood a month or 2 ago. A pm to that person might point you in the right direction tool wise.

Heres what i tried doing

I try to make Beta Demo run my level BSMAZE.map



But gave me wrong version :



So i went to a Hex Editor and then did this :


Now i ran the map again
then this happend :

src\iob.cpp(23): Read buffer overflow

Im seeing how to to uncrypt the map to v6.03 to be able to run on earlier versions on Blood like from Blood Alpha and Beta Demo

Why??

[xBRYAN2000x]

Because, i remember
Blood
v0.91/v0.99a/v0.99b and others ran v6.03 .MAP files
v6 maps appeared unecrypted

I was doing that for testing purposes

No what I mean is why would u want to run anything on outdated software? The final version is what I would expect people to use when making custom maps and what not.

There are some differences with other versions of blood like
in v0.91, the movement seems more half SW-ish IMO

And i was wanting how to convert v7 to v6 map format?
or un-decrypt v7 maps

Ok. Well good luck.

Don't know if the betas use the raw. or map. formats. Tim Hale of the old transfusion crew helped put together a map converter for blood->duke formats for tfn. I hope this helps. It's in the first half of the page, not quite half way down.
