A new update of the Shadowrun 5th edition files for Hero Lab is now available from the automatic updates mechanism within Hero Lab.
We've got a new package available for sale, starting with this update. The package is our 3rd supplements package for Shadowrun 5, collecting several of the smaller books Catalyst releases into a single package. This one, like our other supplement packages, is available for $9.99. Initially, it has Cutting Aces, Shadows in Focus: Metropole, and Shadows in Focus: San Francisco, but over future releases, we'll be adding more content to this package. Here's the full change list for this release: New Releases!

how about the bug fix for linguist, linguistics and JoaT I reported over 6 months ago?
Any progress there? thanks |

I'm sorry, but Linguist/Linguistics/JOaT are all very complex in how they interact with the advancement and value calculations, and getting them to interact properly with each other makes that even more complex. That means that figuring out what the problem is in the first place is something that will likely take a lot of time, but the exact time is unknown. For a while now, there's always been a project to work on, so I have to fit bug reports into whatever gaps I can find. So the bugs I've been choosing to fix in those gaps are mostly the ones where I know what's causing the issue, so I know roughly what's required in order to fix it, and how long that will take.

Where on page 66 of Data Trails does it limit you to one modification? I can't find this rule and there's not been any errata concerning it.

Right hand column, last sentence in the "Device Modifications" section, just before the list of modifications: "Unless otherwise noted, a device can only have one modification."

Thanks for the note.
So now that you're done with Cutting Aces and there's no more purchaseable Srun content to push out you can get back to looking at this bug now, right? Quote:

I'm also interested to hear when RCC/ Jumping In will be supported. Riggers are one of the core shadowrun archetypes and we currently can't build them, even with Rigger 5 which came out a year ago.

So its approaching a year since i reported the linguistics and JoAT bugs.
Is this ever going to get fixed? Is this being worked on at all now or has all work just stopped? Is lone wolf in a nose dive with no further support expected? thanks |

Read previous answer from Mathias. It's tricky to fix. Just because you reported that bug first does NOT mean he works on it first. His available time goes to where HE sees the biggest benefit. Which means fixing things that he currently has a good idea on where the problem is, and how to fix it. Mixed with how much impact it has on usage. If that list gets small enough, priority will move things that need more work. Or if he figures how how to simplify the problem, it will move up the priority list that way. Until then, bugging him about the bug that is bugging you is only going to bug everyone else too. And maybe push it DOWN the priority list, because every time he thinks about the problem, he remembers you too, and gets annoyed. Which from experience is not very conducive to effective debugging. If you want to rant on ME for that, at least I am not the one dealing with the code. |
