from MT4 blocks to MT5 blocks

[wolamen]

i have created a MT4 EA by fxdreema blocks and i want to design it to work on MT5 also
in that case ..

can i select all the MT4 blocks and copy it and bast it into MT5 fxdreema environment ?
Or should i rebuild the blocks from scratch ?

@wolamen Hello, it could work as you say, otherwise save it by changing the file extension from mq4 to mq5

@ambrogio said in from MT4 blocks to MT5 blocks:

save it by changing the file extension from mq4 to mq5

"save it by changing the file extension from mq4 to mq5"
how could i
inside fxdreema MT4 there is two save options mq4 and ex4
there is no ex5
is there an automatic way to convert blocks from MT4 to MT5 without rebuild it again ?

@wolamen When you save by clicking the MQ4 button it opens the page save as "Your Project.mq4" Change it in "Your project.mq5" and save

There is also the fxdreema converter, i never used it for this purpose

[wolamen]

@ambrogio thank you very much .. the converter method worked .. but i think the converter had come issues because the converted mq5 file had many errors

thanks again ...

@wolamen try by clicking mq4 button and save as mq5 by modifing the extension, it works. After that you can open the new mq5 file in the fxdreema builder (have you seen my post above?)
