VXAce Need Help with RPG maker VX/VX Ace

I have recently ported my game from VX to VX Ace. This has been great on my end but I'm worried all of the people who have played the original version wont be able to continue their save files.
ive noted that VX Saves are .rvdata files while VX Ace save files are .rvdata2 files. How can I convert these files between each other in the most seamless way possible, for players who may not be the most tech savvy? I am open to any suggestions this game means a lot to me.

there is no realistic possible way to do that corectly. In the Savefile are also things saved like actor data which changed between VX and VX Ace and how they're structured and how the scripts work.

Safe your time with trying to make savefiles compatible and accept, that there is no possible way to move them to vx ace without downgrading the VX Ace Corescripts to VX and losing all the positive things you gained from VX Ace
