List of cm's that work in MM1 HD

I am having two second thoughts:

1. Perhaps we should give the checksum for the zipped HD cm files, if only to keep the same rules everywhere because it may also confuse players if the only checksum given is for the old file?

That would be different than the other checksum then. It's for the entire bundle, not just the mansion. If we do it, it should be like to like. I do realize that most of the other

bundles

were just a mansion, but that's not universal by any means. Still, I was sort of anticipating that, which was why I was reformatting things the way I did.

2. Rob, do we really need to upload your readme file with every HD cm?  Isn't it better to put it on the boards, for example in the MM1 HD talk board, perhaps in a locked and sticky topic?

No you don't. I don't feel it has to be universal. I did it that way because I feel that there is a big potential for confusion with the new format? zipped or unzipped? can I use old mansions with the game, and on and on. I think it's very sensible to have the info on the board somewhere. Keep in mind, there are some folks who may not have a constant internet connection, who might be connect, and download one or more mansions, then disconnect. I was just trying to ensure the info was close at hand, especially since the new game packages things up differently. It used to be that a sizable amount of documentation came with the game itself.

Of course, I have done this with at least 48 mansions so far...

I already have most all of the mansions converted. What I will do is create one directory, add a README to it, and then duplicate that directory about 12 or 15 times, go through and change the file names, then add the converted mansion to each directory and any associated files, then zip them up. Then I'll work through adding them to the forum one at a time.

You know... it wasn't entirely consistent before.
