Hello, I got one question.

I wanted to ask ya is it possible to convert a old save game that is outdated for the C&C1 Tiberian dawn Gold edition into a functionable save game?

A functionable save game for which game?
AFAIK, the savegames were always compatible inside a certain game, regardless of the version of that game. So an old Gold TD save should also work in a latest version Gold TD.

But you of course can't have a DOS TD savegame and use it in SVGA Win95 TD.

Afaik there is no converter.

I actually noticed that saved games of older versions of TD won't show up in versions of TD with Nyerguds' latest patches, so saved games indeed aren't compatible between different versions of at least Nyerguds' versions.

ah yes. IIRC he also wrote something about that, that even different resolution versions of his patch aren't compatible to each other (not sure, i can be wrong).
Though this is an unofficial patch/expansion, so it might not be related to this topic.

No. Hyper and Blade explained how the saves are made and what they are when we talked about RApp.

The savegames are essentially really specific memory dumps, and being memory dumps they are not compatible with older/newer versions that have significant changes(simple unit balance changes wouldn't break the saves to my understanding).
