converting old entities to binary...

am i correct in assuming there are multiple versions of "convertdata.exe" (besides vanilla vs entrenchment)? as in the converter for 1.05 was different from say, 1.1's? if YES, how can I get ahold of the older version, as I am doing personal edits for 7DS and want to binarize my entities. if NOT, why is it that forgetools 3 convertdata binary entities cause sins 1.05 to minidump when my txt entities work just fine?

if anyone has this old 1.05 convertdata, assuming it even matters/exists, could i please get a copy? thanks!

that is the one with up to 1.14 i believe which will work with 1.05 and above

i guess i'll try the dev exe, still spitting out errors about NumResearchPrereqs being an astronomical number instead of the max value of 2, and expecting one single ability file to be 1.9Gb instead of 16 bytes, and 1 byte instead of 0 twice, for a total of three expectations of size for one file :-D

my oh my what fun little quirks this game has hiding away inside.
