Morning Ok, I think I have cracked a method to get old Real3d v3 projects into v6. Run Real3d (I managed to copy an old installed folder from an old backup and it ran on an xp64 OS :-) ) Load an old Real3d project and save it out as an rpl file. .. The problem I was having before was V5 and v6 do not read these rpl files, but.. Realsoft v4.5 does :-), so load the rpl project files into Realsoft 4.5 and re-save as Realsoft projects. Now it is ready to load in v5 or v6. Not the smoothest of solutions, but we got there in the end. Thanks for your suggestions. Regards Jason _____

Hi Arjo That's the problem I don't remember either :-) I don't remember the conversion utility and rpl import in version 6 will not recognize the rpl saves from v3.5. I'll try rpl import in v4 and see if that is read. I can get some elements into v4.1 that Mark eluded to, but was wondering if there was a known method to get models and materials into v6. Thanks everyone for your ideas. I'll plug away a little more and if I find a good solution I'll post it here.

Hi Jason, Was there not some kind of conversion program? To convert V3 files to V4? It's so long ago I used it, I don't remember it anymore. Arjo.

Thanks Chuck, but I am trying to get the models and scenes into Realsoft v6, so opening in the old v3 program will just give me the old v3 output, which I cannot find a way to read in any version from v4 upwards :-( I got some files to load into Realsoft 4.1, but wondered if there is a better way ? I did find an old Real3d installed folder backed up on an old tape drive today, which allows me to open the old scenes, but I am stumped on the output from there. Even saving in rpl does not seem to work. Thanks again though.

Hi Jason, I had the same problem and Vesa sent me this: Hello, You can find a stripped v3 installation from: www.nic.fi/~realsof1/real3dv3.zip Just unzip the install folder and click real.exe item to start the program. Best regards, Vesa But it doesn't work now .. Better check with Vesa . Or I can send you what I have if it is OK with Vesa.

Afternoon Just wondering if anyone can remember what versions of Realsoft after Real3d, could actually load old Real3d project files ? I have Realsoft v4 and v4.1 installed, but cannot get most of my old Real3d files into it. If anyone can remember I would be grateful. Many thanks Jason
