Methinks the Cyberware bugs are simply misunderstandings... The others are issues I'll attend to.

Erica, if you'd like a new High Space data file, PM me.

On the Vow bit, the Hindrance allows a place to put in what the vow is. Since the Racial Property is that it adds that Hindrance, it likely needs to stay.
That being said, I can certainly synch up the descriptions.

I deleted all of the High Space 3rd party stuff. I'm not using it anyway.

Not getting that swath of errors now but DN and 50F are still showing available updates after trying to install them again.

To everyone working hard on fixing all the files, THANK YOU!

@dartnet; Will you be updating your personal DLR file that was posted in the "Stone and a Hard Place" thread? That's the file that I really NEED.

Our group has DLR character creation tonight and this update really hosed me. Fortunately, I was able to warn a couple of the players not to download the Savage Worlds update.

DigitalGM: I do plan to but it's going to take a bit. I have a few RL life changes taking place ATM (switching jobs) but I will fixing my files. It might just be slower then we all want.

dartnet: Thanks for the update. Good luck with the new job, hope all goes well. I will look forward to that update, whenever RL lets you get to it.

I'm not sure if you're referencing my queries about assigning skills as Robot Mods. If so then I can assure you it's not a misunderstanding - the rest of the Robot Mods appear to work just fine but Skills as Mods are not working correctly. If it will help I will happily take a number of screen shots to help.

OK - here are some links to screen captures I made when trying to use the Robotic Modifications (I've also included descriptions to explain what each image is showing). I hope these help in some way and please let me know if I am doing something wrong...

01) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...20Shots/01.png

So far so good - 0.2 Mod slots remaining. Skill Mods are for skills that were already chosen with the 15 points allocated during character generation; hence the dice increases already show in the Abilities column for the relevant skills.

02) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...20Shots/02.png

Not so good - choosing a fifth Skill Mod causes mayhem. Robotic Modifications show 5 of 5 Mods used but there are now error messages saying Mod slots exceeded.

03) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...20Shots/03.png

Further verification of error messages after using Skill Mods.

04) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...20Shots/04.png

OK - removed fifth Skill Mod (so now at 4.8 of 5 Mods) so no error messages. The Skill Mod for Lockpicking is highlighted in red; this is because Lockpicking has NOT previously been chosen as a Skill during character generation. Lock picking does NOT show up in the Abilities column at this time. Error message states “Skill: Must have a Skill for this Robotic Modification.”

05) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...20Shots/05.png

So, I now go to the New Skills from Robotic Modifications section and add Lockpicking. Now Lockpicking shows up as d6 (it should be d4) and the Skills tab is now highlighted in red (error states Skill Points: Resource overspent).

06) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...20Shots/06.png

Confirmation of the impact of choosing a new Skill in Robotic Modifications (Lockpicking highlighted in blue) - Skills now show overspent by 1 point.

OK, I see the what you're talking about. I'll get that fixed. Thanks for pointing it out!
