MED version 6.846 : importing frame name from text - 07/24/07 21:29

Hello.
I have update MED and now the newest version 6.846 gives me troubles .
I used to import frame names from text with my previous version.
That was easy because all you had to do was to type the line like that :
Code:
standing1
engarde1
engarde2
still1
still2
still3
still4
still5
stepfront1
stepfront2
stepfront3
stepfront4
stepfront5
stepfront6
stepfront7
stepback1
stepback2
...etc.



Now in the 6.846 version ,this kind of text doesnot work .You have to write the line like that :
Code:
 
Frames: 128
Frame: 0 0 "standing1"
Frame: 1 0 "engarde1"
Frame: 2 0 "engarde2"
Frame: 3 0 "still1"
Frame: 4 0 "still2"
Frame: 5 0 "still3"
Frame: 6 0 "still4"
Frame: 7 0 "still5"
Frame: 8 0 "stepfront1"
Frame: 9 0 "stepfront2"
Frame: 10 0 "stepfront3"
Frame: 11 0 "stepfront4"
Frame: 12 0 "stepfront5"
Frame: 13 0 "stepfront6"
etc...


The problem with this new system is obvious :
1)you must type more text
2)you cannot move easily the animations...For example i want to insert a new animation between "still" and "stepfront", i wont be able to just type the new animation between them like before....Because of the "Frame :12 0" thingy...The frame 12 wont be at the right place anymore...

Or is there an easy way that i havenot found yet?

Is it possible to "downdate" my MED only,not WED neither C-script, to the previous version?

What I do to get around this is have up to 3 versions, one is to install the demo and acivate it, then copy the complete install to another directory and upgrade that to the next then copy one more time and update that to the latest.
This way I usually have some fall back but it doesnt work all the time 'cause you may inadvertantly update one of the lessors and if you dont archive your updates, theres no going back.

Do you install several times the demo ? Then you update each demo directory at the update you need? One directory for 6.3, one directory for 6.60 ,etc?
