XF 2.0 Easiest way to keep old XF1 smilies in upgrade?

[RobParker]

What's the easiest way to keep the XF1 default smilies? Upgrading seems to have replaced all the standard smilies with the emoji ones. Not only has it changed the style sheet but it's changed all the spritesheet positions so changing them all back looks like it'll be quite tedious.

The smilies from the extended spritesheet all transferred over fine during the upgrade.

You could probably export them from an XF1 install and import them into XF2, assuming the XML schema is the same (maybe not a safe assumption).

Anyone know for sure?

As Jeremy described in the post above, that's what I did.

And that overwrites the default XF2 ones? Or the default ones need deleting first?

I don't recall what I did. More than likely deleted all the default XF2 ones first.

Does anyone have the xml file exported from XF1 for the default smilies? I assume I could just use that rather than have to install XF1 again to get a copy of the old setup?

Here you go.

Thanks! That seems to be missing a few though?

These are the default 12 that come with XF1.

Thanks. I also had extra ones that XF2 had overwritten but I'm just sorting them manually.
