V2.1 Released - Mutants & Masterminds Public Preview

[rob]

I'm happy to let you all know that we've released the new V2.1 update
for Hero Lab. The single most important detail about this release is
that it includes the long-awaited public preview of the data files
for Mutants & Masterminds. In addition, we've added a variety of new
capabilities for the existing d20 System and World of Darkness games,
as well as made major refinements towards getting the Authoring Kit
completed. You can get the V2.1 release from our website or via the
integrated Updates mechanism within Hero Lab.

Here's a summary of the some of the key things we've added in V2.1...

1. The Mutants & Masterminds public preview is now available for
everyone to play with. We're working to have the M&M data files ready
for release by Origins (i.e. just two weeks away).
2. You can now duplicate a hero with just a few mouse clicks. This
makes creating NPCs and customizing them even easier than before.
3. Printing and previewing are faster and more flexible, and the
printing of color images is significantly clearer than before.
4. For all game systems, the Tactical Console now allows direct
editing of various in-play information beyond just damage, along with
the inclusion of notes about each hero that make it easy for GMs to
track special details about each character.
5. For d20, all of the content from Pathfinder 8 and 9 is now included.
6. For d20, all of the level 1-20 stock NPCs from the 8 core classes
are now included to make life easy for GMs. You can import these via
"Import Stock Hero" option under the Portfolio menu.
7. For d20, added an "Show Feat / Ability Descriptions" output
ruleset. When enabled, up to 3 lines of notes is shown under each
feat or special ability on the character sheet.
8. Fixed a variety of bugs, both within the various game systems and
within Hero Lab itself.

For complete details, please see the readme file with the product
and/or the FAQ for the data files of each game system.

May the dice be with you!
