how to convert blockchain to new version?

I have altcoin bassed on old Litecoin sources, end i try to convert it for latest available sources. How i can do this ? What need for this ?

I try simple download it on old wallet, then run new. But mine new or download them from other wallet no possible. I try find info how do this. But find noting.

I have this error when trying download block's from peer's

ERROR: AcceptBlockHeader: Consensus::ContextualCheckBlockHeader: 90e718e6878f4b7ae4de4ae83db75881d00ca017f5a117c2054798bcb76c4178, bad-version(0x00000002), rejected nVersion=0x00000002 block (code 17)

validator i have this settings

        // Check proof of work
    if (block.nBits != GetNextWorkRequired(pindexPrev, &block, consensusParams))
        return state.DoS(100, false, REJECT_INVALID, "bad-diffbits", false, "incorrect proof of work");

    // Check timestamp against prev
    if (block.GetBlockTime() <= pindexPrev->GetMedianTimePast())
        return state.Invalid(false, REJECT_INVALID, "time-too-old", "block's timestamp is too early");

    // Check timestamp
    if (block.GetBlockTime() > nAdjustedTime + 2 * 60 * 60)
        return state.Invalid(false, REJECT_INVALID, "time-too-new", "block timestamp too far in the future");

    // Reject outdated version blocks when 95% (75% on testnet) of the network has upgraded:
    // check for version 2, 3 and 4 upgrades
    if((block.nVersion < 2 && nHeight >= consensusParams.BIP34Height) ||
       (block.nVersion < 3 && nHeight >= consensusParams.BIP66Height) ||
       (block.nVersion < 4 && nHeight >= consensusParams.BIP65Height))
            return state.Invalid(false, REJECT_OBSOLETE, strprintf("bad-version(0x%08x)", block.nVersion),
                                 strprintf("rejected nVersion=0x%08x block", block.nVersion));

    if (block.nVersion < VERSIONBITS_TOP_BITS && IsWitnessEnabled(pindexPrev, consensusParams))
        return state.Invalid(false, REJECT_OBSOLETE, strprintf("bad-version(0x%08x)", block.nVersion),
                                 strprintf("rejected nVersion=0x%08x block", block.nVersion));

    return true;
}

in genesis block settings i have

    genesis = CreateGenesisBlock(1498204210, 215446, 0x1e0ffff0, 1, 500 * COIN);

but i have in old sources this setting

        // Check that the block chain matches the known block chain up to a checkpoint
        if (!Checkpoints::CheckBlock(nHeight, hash))
            return state.DoS(100, error("AcceptBlock() : rejected by checkpoint lock-in at %d", nHeight));

        // Don't accept any forks from the main chain prior to last checkpoint
        CBlockIndex* pcheckpoint = Checkpoints::GetLastCheckpoint(mapBlockIndex);
        if (pcheckpoint && nHeight < pcheckpoint->nHeight)
            return state.DoS(100, error("AcceptBlock() : forked chain older than last checkpoint (height %d)", nHeight));

        // Reject block.nVersion=1 blocks (mainnet >= 710000, testnet >= 400000)
        if (nVersion < 2)
        {
            if ((!fTestNet && nHeight >= 710000) ||
               (fTestNet && nHeight >= 400000))
            {
                return state.Invalid(error("AcceptBlock() : rejected nVersion=1 block"));
            }
        }
        // Enforce block.nVersion=2 rule that the coinbase starts with serialized block height
        if (nVersion >= 2)
        {
            if ((!fTestNet && nHeight >= 710000) ||
               (fTestNet && nHeight >= 400000))
            {
                CScript expect = CScript() << nHeight;
                if (vtx[0].vin[0].scriptSig.size() < expect.size() ||
                    !std::equal(expect.begin(), expect.end(), vtx[0].vin[0].scriptSig.begin()))
                    return state.DoS(100, error("AcceptBlock() : block height mismatch in coinbase"));
            }
        }
    }

what i need to change for it's start accept block's

i know how to modify ,but problem is only with acceptable block... i cannot find info how work. – tseries – 2017-07-28T08:28:33.440

End not just copy past code. I try update , but stuck on this bip settings – tseries – 2017-07-28T08:59:17.707

1I'm afraid to say that if this is giving you difficulty, you probably don't have the skillset required for modifying the coin, as I said. I've voted to close this question as too broad because of that, it's simply not narrow enough to answer. – MeshCollider – 2017-07-28T11:26:03.777

You think i do not try so simple how change values of version's in this a piece sources ? Way you try answer if you do not know ? Find simple question end answer ... Way people how you try answer question if they do not know answer end if they answer is wrong they try quickly down vot question. – tseries – 2017-07-28T12:13:48.503

I know c++ , i know how create change any coin's , any wallet. But i only have problem with this bip. End i ask solution , it's faster then research all code if any who know this end can share it , you do not think that ? End for this i think been created this service , not for collect reputation which is worth nothing... + compilation on my hardware is very long process, end it make a problem to research all self on this moment. – tseries – 2017-07-28T12:29:32.827
