"Importing from Wiz Gold"
I do not have a finished Wiz 7 (Gold) game with this new machine...have tried to import an in progress game, but the Wiz 8 load game screen does not bring up the in progress game...does it have to be finished, or do I need to move the in progress file to Wiz 8??...or do something else??

1. "RE: Importing from Wiz Gold"
I believe there is an Import folder in the Wiz 8 Saves folder. Copy the file there and try importing.

Visit New City and re-equip your people before the transfer. As a general rule, high-quality leather armor will transfer. Potions transfer 5 at a time. Arrows and stones transfer 50-15 at a time depending on how damaging they are. Spear+2 and Elven Bow transfers, but light sword, Rod of Sprites and other super weapons will not. Ebony Plate and Mantis-anything will not, but a Crusaders Helm will transfer sometimes. Wrist Rockets and Enchanted Bow and Great Bow will transfer.

Bring extra leather armor, alchemists can wear it now.

2. "Everything Rbrown says is true"
If I did this correctly, here is a link for our detailed analysis of transfers:

http://www.softwarespecialties.com/cgi-bin/rpgforum/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=2114&forum=DCForumID19&archive=

(Of course, you probably already read that, and your real problem was just getting the importation to work. Rbrown gave you the solution to that: the file needs to be copied into the Wiz8 imports folder. YOU DO NOT NEED TO HAVE FINISHED CODS TO IMPORT TO WIZ8.)
