[flashingturtle]

Hi there. im having a few problems opening modules in CoC.

ive uploaded/attached a screenshot and the game logs.

on the screenshot, everything from Call of Cthulhu down - Mythos magic, S petersons field guide, the devil in the details etc etc all the way down open fine no probs.

everything above that -YOG, masks madman, the haunting etc WONT OPEN.

ive tried 6e and 7e, same for both, and same on classic as well as unity. ive also unloaded then reloaded them, no effect.

pls help!!

Those modules were created over 10 years ago; so are not as fleshed out as some of the other modules. These modules do not have any category information (which is why they appear at the top of the list with no heading); nor any indexes for the records they include.

You can find the records for those modules in the individual campaign record listings on the side (Story, NPCs, etc.). These very old modules typically only include records for Story, Images, Items and NPCs.

I'll look into adding a message about modules with no indexes in the next release for the Modules window. Also, I'll see whether we can update those older modules easily to add some basic list indexes.

I would also only recommend loading one theme extension at a time; as well as only opening those modules which you are currently using.

Ah brilliant got you. so i have to go to the story tab and open them from there. ok. thanks for your help.

Actually, some of the work I've been doing to simplify content creation is paying off; and I was able to quickly add indexes to those modules with very little work. (used to require listing each item in index in XML; which would have been prohibitive.)

Can you try running a new Check for Updates; and try again?
