What's up, RMers?

Is there anything more annoying than wanting to open up an old project and find that your brand new editor will no longer open it because of the project's age?

Fear not dear friends. It's not one of my RPGMaker XP demos. Technically, you just need to swap out the Game.exe, Game.rxproj and update your Game.Ini file to use the more updated .dll if you ever run into that case... which is why supplying the rgss.dll is always a good idea anyway.

But no. The project is a highly intensive help document for one of my old works. As to the age of the project, I would say it has been nearly a decade since I actually updated it enough to warrant a new help file. And it is not a light project either, boasting well over 60 topics within.

Not only does my help-file editor refuse to open my older project, but it cannot even import the existing help file... the built-in variables controlling how the help file navigates having changed so drastically. So... I have been forced...

TO RETYPE THE WHOLE BLOODY THING!!!!!

I;ve already gone through my Nobou Uematsu collection of game CDS (Final Fantasy VII, VIII), Suikoden II, Dune Spice Opera, the Ara Fell OST, Skyrim OST... More to work on....

RPG Maker XP is the only program I know where I've encountered this issue and it boggles the mind. It's not like there are different versions of RMXP that could cause incompatibility... Or are there? If so, that could explain everything.
