If you used previous versions of SORTIE, you may have a collection of files you used for runs. This version of SORTIE can read some of those files. (If you have not used previous versions of SORTIE, this topic is probably irrelevant for you.) Supported file types:
Parameter files (.par). SORTIE-ND versions up to 6.04 support these parameter files. Later versions, including this one, do NOT support .par files. You can download and install a version of SORTIE-ND up to 6.04, and read this topic in its user manual for instructions on how to import your file. You can then save it into a SORTIE-ND parameter file, which can be opened by later SORTIE-ND versions.
Tree map files (.stmf). The format for tree map files from older versions of SORTIE is no longer supported. However, SORTIE-ND does support a different tab-delimited tree map file format. It is easy to manually convert any old .stmf files to the new format using a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel.
All other file types are unsupported.
