From Classic to Unity.

[Mortis]

Because I did not see this as a item. I recently bought Unity Ultimate, while my players are either running FG free, FG Classic or FG Classic Ultimate. There unable to connect and unlike with the Classic version I have no wait to test the success or fail. Are Classic users not able to connect to Unity?

No, unity and classic are different programmes, they need unity to connect to you :) About the connection test: That is only need for the LAN type, for the cloud type you do not need port forwarding :) The cloud is now the recommended way, while LAN is for those people who want to have more control over their own connection, and it is expected that those people know how to test their portforwarding :) (at least that is the official answer to that, I believe, maybe I misremember :) )

Thank you. I hope my old key works after Unity removal.

When you have purchased a license for Unity, then yes, your license for classic remains of course :) In case you have ultimate: The can of course also use FGU in demo mode to connect to you then :)

If you have bought Unity Ultimate then the players can download a Unity Demo client and connect
They will need to register an account on the forums to use with the software

heya,

i am sorry to disturb by jumping in your post but the title seems apropriate to my question.

if it's not or if the modo thinks it's more clear, please split out my question.

i've a campaign running on FGC, if i upgrade FGU is it:

1/ a way to transfer this campaign in FGU?

2/ a risk to loose data in the operation?

thanks and mery christmas :p

HI fizzle, welcome to FG.

You can copy a campaign from Classic into Unity. All you need do is copy the folder with the campaign name on it from the Campaigns folder in Classic Data to the Unity Campaigns folder. You won't lose any data

[fizzle]

thanks a lot, i was a bit worry

Copy your data across rather than Move it.
Make sure you dont point FGU at the same directories as FGC.
