Heyas, just a heads-up. Herolabs for Mac trying to use the 5E ruleset and Community Pack.
I keep getting a message that V8.9e is available, and downloading and running it, but when I load the software it says it's still V8.9d. When I use the software, attempting to add items to a character from dropdown menus or multiple selections causes the software to crash to the desktop approximately 4 times out of 5 attempts, making the software effectively unusable at the moment. Thanks for all your hard work, will keep an eye here. -The Gneech |

For me, on 10.14.5 (18G95), I download v8.9e, install, re-launch the app to see that updates (v8.9e) are still available (About still shows 8.9d #926

I am having the same issue.
I am trying to download Hero Lab for the Mac (V8.9e) released 30-Dec-2019 and my MacBook Pro is running macOS Catalina. Every time I download the file it says "The selected update has been successfully downloaded. Would you like to install the new version of the product now" I select Yes and it goes to the Please Note! message and I select Ok, then the hl89e_mac_install.dmg screen comes up and I select Agree. It loads the file and wants me to drag the Hero Lab icon to the Applications folder like usual to install it. I do that and it asks to Keep Both, Stop, or Replace the existing file and I select Replace. It copies the 58.7 MB file to Applications and then ends. I open up Hero Lab and it still says that I need to update. It still shows that I have V8.9d #926 loaded. A fix would be nice! |

The build numbering issue seems to be a bug with the display of the version number. If you see "8.9d #926" in the About Hero Lab dialog, then you have the correct 8.9e version and do not need to update again, despite it still saying 8.9d.

That's the version number I see. I guess the constant CTD is a different issue. Should I do a fresh reinstall?

I was just able to reproduce this issue in 5e as well. I am working on a solution to that, and hope to put out a new version that fixes this and the update version issue soon.
