Importing to new verion

[Jeff Horton]

Question. I started using 2.6 and the using the Freeship Plus versions some. This is growing into more business than hobby. I have always believed in paying for good software.

My question is if/how can I get existing files from the Freeship Plus imported into Delftship if I swap to it? I know there is no direct import. There has to be way to get from one to the other. I just have to many boats designed to swap if I can not get them into the new software somehow.

It seems you can’t. Freeship plus is a fork of Freeship, and the fileformat has changed since the original freeship 2.6 version. It appears that Freeship plus doesn’t allow to save to the older 2.6 format. If it would then you could import the file straight away. Perhaps if you export a model to the fef format and send it to me I can see if I can import this.

OK, got around to trying something you suggested and it worked. I exported to file to an FEF file and Delft Ship would not open it.

I tried and it opened in version 2.6. Save it in 2.6 and of course I could open it in DS. Been using the free version and after adjusting to the differences I am impressed with the changes! Just placed my order too.

Thank you!
I hope you will enjoy using it

Very impressed with the changes.

How long should it take to get the registration email? I email it a few hours ago but no answer. I could not use the send function since I don’t use outlook, so I copied and pasted and sent to support.
