Hi all,

I have received an old ruleset for FG2.

Is it possible to transform it into a .pak file in order to use it in the current FG version ?


Thanks for helping !

A .pak file is simple a zipped files renamed. But, FGC and FGU will both use unpacked/zipped folders for rulesets (modules and extensions too). So you really don't need to "pak" it up if you don't want to.

Code is code.
If it doesnt work right in Unity then code needs to be updated - it doesnt have anything to do with the PAK itself.

Understood, but the old ruleset don't seem to work with my FG whatever I do.

Currently, just wanted to use it in FG, not in FGU.
I was hoping it could work with FG.

It probably depends on code that has changed.
Hence you need to debug the errors that are thrown up and update the code.

Yep, even FGC has had significant code changes over the last months/years. So if the ruleset is years old like I suspect, it will need to be updated. If you're not up to that task, you might consider just doing an extension for MoreCore.
