Hi Ian,
I tried converting some of the map packs to the  new version featureing
your new update, which is awesome, thank you.

In the items example map, the game crashes when trying to load the hero and
ogre map. It has something to do with the equipment cabinet.

I never noticed this before. Is this essential for anything, or can I just
delete it?

Dev 33 adds the feature to auto-convert your map pack files to version 10.

First backup your map pack just in case.
After opening the game choose "Play a map campaign".
Use the arrow keys to find your map pack, then press control + U to upgrade
it to the latest version.
This converter will upgrade units, structures, skills, effects, items,
terrain, regions, points, and damage types.
It does not upgrade the actual map file.  That must be done by saving the
map in the map editor as mentioned previously.

There are a few other files it does not upgrade because they do not yet
support parser version 10, such as teams, map pack settings, and default
flag files.

It also fixes a few bugs with the upgraded versions of the files.
