How do I convert RPG Maker Ace VX Lite project, to Axe VX?

[TicklishWasabi]

I have a project in Axe VX Lite, and I decided to buy the full version. When I open the project in the new version, however, I still only have the lite graphics, and sounds available.

This says to replace the game.rvproj2 file with a new one from a new project

Correct, how do I do this though? I can't post on that forum because it's archived.

My first question would be "do you know how to use a computer", but that might sound snobbish.

Your project should be in your 'my documents' folder.
1. Open vx ace and make a new project.
2. Close vx ace
3. Go to the folder where you just made the project (This is where the computer knowledge come in.)
4. Copy the game.rvproj2 file
5. Go to your current game folder you made with vx ace lite
6. Paste the file
7. Test the project (double click the rvproj2 file)

Does it work?

Unfortunately no, It didn't work, I opened it and I still only have the lite version of graphics and sounds available.

Edit: I figured it out despite your passive aggressiveness. For anyone having the same problems, here's what I did:

1. First I created a new project with VX ace
2. I opened the folders with both the original, and the new project in them.
3. I deleted all of the folders from the new project, audio data, graphics, etc.
4. I took all of the folders, (audio, data, fonts, graphics, movies, system,) from the Lite project and copied them into the new project folder.
5. I opened the RPGVXAce Project.
6. My original game booted up with all the new graphics, and audio files.

Note: I'm not entirely sure why this worked, it should have logically just given me the lite files to work with. But it did work, so I'm happy!
