The next version of RCX Command Center (expect a beta at the beginning of the comming week) will contain a command to translate from NQC 1.x to NQC 2.0. It is not completely fool-proof but seems to work in almost all cases. Mark Overmars (25 years ago, 13-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

The amusement park set has really good models, but probably doesn't give you the same amount of plastic for your dollar as some other sets.
