I guess I need to work on better documentation. Sorry all I am tired and it was 20hrs this weekend to get this stuff out the door.

Each "Pack" contains everything it needs now. So in example the "GM Mythic Pack" is a COMPLETE package as it contains the Basic Pack and the GM Pack. So if you want Mythic you install just the one Pack now.

If you need just 3PP stuff when you install the 3PP Pack you get the Basic Pack and the PFS stuff also. This allows me to create a "base" to work from (ie Basic Pack) and then it is included in everything else.

So the idea is most people can get away with a single pack. Maybe a few if they need Eberron, 3PP, and GM stuff.

Many others I think will just be using the Basic Pack as players or the 3PP Pack which gives Psionics and the Basic Pack.

Sounds good. Thanks for all your hard work!

I'm sure you'll get it figured out. It might take a bit of Pack juggling before everything fits together.

Yes - thankyou so much. Your hard work is very much appreciated.

Question about the new pack structure. Currently I have just the Basic Pack loaded, but we have a new campaign coming up that is going to be using Eberron and Psionics, so I'm going to be loading up those soon.

Now, since the other packs contain everything in the Basic Pack, does that mean that when the Basic Pack updates, I only need to worry about downloading it if (at least one of) the other Packs didn't?

(At least I don't need the GM or Mythic Packs - yet.)

Error loading packs.
 

I got the following packs installed Campaign, 3PP and GM (in that order). I get the following load error:

The data files could not be loaded due to errors. Hero Lab will now attempt to load them in recovery mode. Once loaded, you can access the editor as normal to correct any errors.

The following errors occurred:

Thing 'minHrsHrac' (Minion) - Bootstrap thing 'triS2ComRi' does not exist

I meet all the content requirements to use the packs....please help!

P.S., this is a clean install

Loading these in Windows/Mac should be perfectly fine. Its only iPad that is having issues with multiple packs.

Oh good question!

When the Basic Pack updates that means a new version will go out for EVERY other Pack. This is because everything is built upon the foundation of the Basic Pack. So the release notes for the 3PP Pack may just say "Basic Pack" updated. So you would need to look at the Basic Pack notes to see what really changed/added. :)

I am not sure yet but I may roll into a release schedule of every Third/Fourth day of the month. This would put me a few days out after LW releases there monthly update. That would give me time to fix any issues that come up from an official Pathfinder release. *NOTE: This is not set in stone. It depends on how well this works out time wise and how much faster using GitHub makes things.*

Looking into this. But trS2ComRi does not exist in the Community Files it exists in a individual download of PFRPG_AnimalCompanionArmorRAW.user from d20pfsrd. I also can not find minHrsHrac in any file. Hmmm

So here is my guess that you had PFRPG_AnimalCompanionArmorRAW.user installed at one point which overrides the Combat Riding trick. You then made a new "minion" creature yourself with a Unique ID of "minHrsHrac" which bootstraps the Combat Riding trick.

So you have two choices:
1) Download "PFRPG_AnimalCompanionArmorRAW.user" from d20pfsrd and place it into your programData\herolab\data\pathfinder folder.
2) Open the editor to your custom minion with a Unique ID of "minHrsHrac" and click on the "Bootstrap" button in the top right corner. Change the bootstrap of "triS2ComRi" to be "triComRide". Save your changes and restart HL.

Thanks you!

You helped me narrow it down. Adding that file fixed it. I thinks it was a character I had that was referring to the missing file or some other user file that I put in the path folder and forgot to remove as I wanted to check the install before adding my user files.. Stuff hasppens but thanks again Shadow!

I keep getting duplicates of the gm mythic pack no matter how many times I keep installing.

Should I be reinstalling all the feb 1st updates, or just the mythic?

EDIT Deleting everything only reinstalling both the mythic and 3pp seemed to fix it.

Glad its working. I made a tweak to the GM Mythic Pack and it should now install correctly for anyone else. Sorry! :(

Also note going forward you just need to download new versions of the GM Mythic Pack only. :)
