I completed running the updated DDI Downloader file just released. Everything downloaded and processed correctly as far as I can tell, apart from one thing: there's no source for H2 Thunderspire Labyrinth still selectable in the character creation screen under Adventures. It used to be there a few months ago, but then went missing. I made a portfolio a while back and included that, so now I get an error when loading that portfolio. I've included pics.
This is running on a Mac, but I download the DDI data from Hero Lab running in Wineskin, open and process it there, then copy the DDI and updated files from the Wineskin data folders to the data folders on my Mac. I've looked around to see where I can add this source manually or adjust the sources, but it looks like that's a core file that only Wolf Lair can modify or correct. |

As I recall this....
Open up the portfolio in notepad and search for the adventure. Delete just the line that it's on from the file (it may be in there several times). Then save the file. Problem fixed. |

The problem isn't that it's popping up in the portfolio, but that it was originally in the sources, and now is no longer in the sources at all. That's more at what I was hinting at.

That's cause Wizards deleted it in some way that causes the downloader to miss it. the error pops up because the portfolio was saved with it selected as a valid source. since the source isn't there (at least for now lord knows with Wizards) the easy solution is to remove the reference from the portfolio.

The other solution is to create a user defined file with it as a source in there. That would also theoretically work.

Just make a user data file. and put something in it... an item... or something else.
edit the sources and check the addnew option. For the tag use ThundrLaby For the description use: H2 Thunderspire Labyrinth Save the user file, and restart Herolab, your errors will go away |

I believe I fixed this simply by doing a "Save As" on the portfolio and over-writing the original.

That would be a nice change. For me it still left the reference to the non-existant source in my portfolios until I manually removed it.
