How do you import s from 5.1? 1r4s5x

blagargag » Sat May 31, 2025 7:11 am

I recently ed version 6 and it doesn't have my s from 5.1 listed. I saw an import option, but it's looking for a .fdm file which doesn't exist in my 5.1 install folder. Am I missing something? Thanks!

Hello,
FDM6 imports s from FDM5 automatically. But it does it only once. If you need to import again, you'll have to completely uninstall FDM6 (including its data files) and install it again.

I think the issue is that I didn't install 5.1 in the standard directory, so when I'm installing 6, it doesn't see the data from 5.1. Is there a way to change the install directory?

Hello,
The data directory's location is always constant unless you're using portable version of FDM5 (I'm not sure if FDM5 s portable mode though).
