title | Graphics on your cards or items will need to be saved in the right place |
---|
| Pictures must be saved in a subfolder called Graphics, which is in the same location as the file you're upgrading. For example, if the file you're upgrading is located at C:\Plus19 , make sure the pictures are in C:\Plus19\Graphics . If they're not in this folder when you upgrade, you'll need to manually add them to your upgraded file. Also, images over 200KB in size can't be imported. |
And after you've upgraded...There may be some things you need to do too, depending on the features you use. Don’t stress though, you only need to do them once. After you've upgraded, head over to Additional upgrade tasks. |
