JTCS 2.0 Upgrade is this Mandatory ??

[David G]

It should be the case that 2.00 will read 1.04 files, but not vice versa. So, yes, with 2.00, you should be able to read in 1.04 files, no problem. But then they get converted to the new 2.00 standard when saved anew. That is why your opponent needs to have 2.00 to proceed.

Having said that, better safe than sorry? Better to continue playing out your current game(s) with both players remaining on 1.04? I don't want players flaming me if something goes wrong.

Agreed, but I have an opponent who has moved solely to 2.00. And I share the view of another poster that I don't want two installs of the same game. Hard drive capacity isn't an issue these days, but time/hassle are.

But thanks for the response, helpful.
