Default GURPS Robots

I'm curious if GURPS Robots is compatible with 4th ed?

I'm sure you can carry over monetary costs and whatnot, but allot of abilities have had point cost changes.

ST and HP are on completely different scales too. You can probably go a long ways with generating 3e stats and then using Update to convert them, though.

GURPS Update is free and online, by the way.

Also, to the original poster, providing the results of the fruits of your labor would be most welcome.

It's also worth noting that GURPS Reign of Steel has a 4th Edition update that gives some practical examples of upgrading the supplement's 3rd edition robots to the newer game.
