    I’m not sure why you even bothered to include the inferior conversions of certain JJ1 sets, given that no one in their right mind would use them over their superior counterparts anyway (see Rooster’s vs Lark’s Industrius conversions for example). While I guess this upload is at least a useful reference for people looking for JJ1 sets, it serves little purpose overall as unless you’re planning on making a level pack that uses all or most of the JJ1 sets, you’re better off using J2O’s search feature to look for the individual sets you want.

    The main purpose is to fix the alphabetization in your JCS in case if you already have a huge collection of JJ1 conversions. The thing is that most of these tilesets are actually used in some level packs / levels (NOT counting some garbage levels). If someone is a collector type (like me) and likes to keep good levels on his computer, then he pretty much HAS to have all the tilesets that the levels use (otherwise what’s the point of having the levels…?).

    The reason why I keep inferior conversions is because they have unique tile placement, so you can’t upgrade them to the superior counterpart and have the levels which use that tileset still working.

    Notice that in case of inferior sets that have exactely the same tile placement (andare just extended with some new tiles on previously unused spaces) are not included and I list their filenames along with the names of the upgraded versions.

    Lastly, there are some cases where it is hard to decide which version is better. Most of versions have something unique, that the other ones don’t have. With the new JCS names you can easily compare them.

    I’d recommend disabling ratings since nothing is actually yours.

    I suppose this would be convenient for those who are looking to use JJ1 conversions which aren’t the official godawfully converted ones, though I just prefer using the search function to get the certain single conversion I want, so I don’t fill JCS with tilesets I’ll never use even more.
