Test Release v2.9 (alpha)

I'm not running test mode currently so I can't check it myself... but has the issue with copying spells been dealt with?

If you copy a spell that has modified functions or a 'new' spell to another character sheet or a different spell level it resets all the workings to the basic casting and doesn't carry any of the stuff along with it.

Excellent. :) Sorry for the lack of quick responses, work is hell lately. (78 hour work-week)

Blackfoot,

I'm not sure what you are referring to when you say modified functions. Are you talking about the text fields for the spell, the actions that are created when the ruleset parses, or something else?

Also, where are you copying between? Between classes? Between characters? Something else?

Thanks,
JPG

JPG,

Just and update, 2 more players from our Thursday night group had the "MSVCR100.dll is missing" problem. One on XP and a second on Win 7. Both times the x86 redistributable C++ package fixed it. The 4 other players had no issues. All of us loving the improvements. thanks!

I'm talking about the various things that a spell can 'do' on the actions tab... it defaults with 'cast' but there are 3 other options, damage, effects, healing... if you copy a modified or created spell to anywhere else.. to another character, to another class, to another spell level... these all get wiped back to the basic 'cast'.
I don't know about everyone else, but I love this function and use it for much more than just spells. I tend to set up a bank of things for fighters and other classes as well... 'charge', 'full defense', 'fighting defensively'... and so on.. so it's nice to be able to copy spells with their 'effects' between characters.

The original reason is to make sure that the updater scaled with different DPI settings, but it doesn't seem to be affecting anything when I change my DPI settings. I figured that leaving it in wouldn't hurt, but I guess it did. ;)

So I just tried downloading the web installer (on the first post) again (2.58MB file) and running it on my Windows XP VM (which I fully uninstalled FGII from).

But I'm still getting the SetProcessDPIAware DLL error I listed a dozen posts ago ?

Do we need an updated version of the web installer ? Bit worried I'm the only one getting the error, but then maybe I'm the only one trying to get an unregistered second client working (as I need it to test the network image / db sharing glitches and improvements that SWEX is going to make use of).

-PW-

Noticed a minor bug (typo really) this morning in the PF Basic Rules 'Skills' section... for Knowledge under the listing 'Table: Knowledge Skill DCs'

'Identify underground hazard'

Has an extra (blank) column in it which is throwing off the entire table.
the extra column is between the words 'hazard' and 'Dungeoneering'

Phantomwhale,

That's just me forgetting to update the web installer link. I just created a shortcut link on the server, so it should automatically update going forward.

Blackfoot,

I've added to my fix list.

Thanks,

JPG,

Thanks for the bug fixes! Today's game went much better, enjoying the new functionality.

One of my players complained about seeing the following script error repeated over and over:

Code:

---

Script Error: [string "charsheet/scripts/charsheet_powerlist.lua"]:208: attempt to index
field 'powermode' (a nil value)

---

It happens whenever he would click the name of a power on his main character sheet (but not the mini sheet). It also happened when *I* would click the power names, though the errors still appeared only for him, not for me.
