Okay, to sum up what needs to be fixed/added to the HC files:

1. The LEs

2. The Swimming trait

3. The Sentinel and Sinestro oversized figs

4. The various SHIELD figs, when filtering alphabetically, end up before Sabretooth. This will make it increasingly harder to find them as more figs are added.

5. The same thing happens with T.O.Morrow. I understand why it happens there, what with the periods, but is there some way for it to ignore punctuation when sorting alphabetically?


That's all I can think of. Anyone have others to add to the list??

Ok, I've looked over the new HC files.

Firstly, thanks for adding the swimming trait.

Marvel: Thanks for adding Sentinel and the LEs to the Marvels files. But their rarity is listed as "promo". This is not correct, and needs to be fixed immediately. In WK games, promo figs are not allowed in tournament play. LEs and oversized figs are allowed and are not promos anyway. All LEs have a rarity level, just like normal figs, though theirs tends to be higher. Oversized fig don't rally have a rarity, so you could put a hyphen there. Also, the only actual promo, a Spiderman Promotional fig, needs to be added to the files. The new set, Xplosion was just released and needs to be added along with Clobberin' Time LEs.

DC: The Sinestro's rarity is listed as promo, and needs to be fixed. The LEs are not in the files yet. The Batman Promotional fig needs to be added to the files.

You can get correct LE rarity level from HCRealms, if nowhere else.

TO USERS: You must have "Merge Identical Models" unchecked in the setting tab for Sentinel and Sinestro to work properly in deckbuilding.

Currently the rarity is set to "Promo / LE", it was our understanding that
these were the same thing, but apparently not. We'll fix this in the next
update.

Will do. We actually have this and the Batman figure you mention below, so
we'll get them added - I assume they should have their own release?

These should be in the latest release.

Again, these should be added now, check the latest release. You can check
the "Display dialog when new updates are available" box in the automatic
updates checking behaviour dialog, so Card Vault automatically informs you
of new releases.

Sorry, I thought I had the new releases...I'll check on that. I don't use auto update for several reasons, including dial-up and slow PC.

The promotional figs are listed under promo at the realms, but they actually have the Infinity Challenge and Hypertime logos on their bases, and should be treated as promotional figs for their specific set. Also, its important they be listed as Promotional not promo because of the way the rules are worded--just to alleviate confusion. The same goes for other WK games, but I could hardly name all the other promotional figs off the top of my head...

The LEs have a rarity level such as LE5, LE6, etc. That's what needs to be fixed.

You can configure CV to only check for updates when you have an active
dial-up connection. Also, the updates data is only about 10K. That's a tiny
file, even on a slow dial-up connection. I strongly recommend giving the
auto-updates mechanism a try before abandoning it.

Okay, in the Marvel files, you've got the CT LEs, but not the IC LEs. These need to be added.

We don't actually have the data for the Infinity Challenge LEs, but we're
working on it.
