Can I convert long to int?

Just do (int)myLongValue. It'll do exactly what you want (discarding MSBs and taking LSBs) in unchecked context (which is the compiler default). It'll throw OverflowException in checked context if the value doesn't fit in an int:

int myIntValue = unchecked((int)myLongValue);

Convert.ToInt32(myValue);

Though I don't know what it will do when it's greater than int.MaxValue.
