XF 1.2 How to import bunch of vB smilies?

[Janmaat]

I have some hundreds of smilies in my current vB. How do I import them into XF?

Can I do it with the vB Importer?

I dont't need to import the smilies only but also their settings should be imported correctly, so the replacement text per each smiley, e.g. : oops: or : cool: etc etc.

XF does not currently have a bulk smilie importer (from vB, a directory, or otherwise).

Maybe these might help:

Thanks! @Diesel13 I'll try this importer

Yes just make an xml file with my conversion script and then use the importer by @Waindigo to import it. You must manually move the actual images over yourself.

@Code Monkey
I ran already an successful test. Excellent!

You can also do it manually with db queries:
