[_Pax_]

That's not what I mean. I don't want to put stuff IN the workshop.

I want to install the worskhop into my lifestyle's Workplace.

I'd like to see the ability to add shops/facilities to safehouses/lifestyles

The ability to add new Cyberware suites would be nice (Augmentation, page 48).

This can already be done using the editor.

This isn't really a big deal now that I know how to make my own but still thought I'd ask anyway. I'd like to see the critters as a stock enemy that can be quickly dropped into combat.

I appreciate there's content to add, but the file for my character is 2.2meg and I've been trying for over an hour to load the file with no luck.

I've found this to be an issue when dealing with high end characters or large groups (8 or more in the dashboard). I think this is primarily due to the profile being a string of xml docs pasted into one xml doc, instead of being a report from a relational database. It would load faster and require fewer memory resources as a report.

I had a fire fight this past weekend using 4 party members, one with 6 drones, vs. an 8 man sec team and a spider. With most of their gear stripped from their files when I imported them into the profile for the encounter, it still took 2 hours and 49 min. to load. Fortunately I'd set this up prior to game time.

Turns out if I do anything else while HL is loading a large file, then HL stops and must be restarted. When I loaded the same character when I wasn't trying to use my PC it took around 20 minutes or so. Still way too long in my opinion though.

This character is a shaman, his ally, his bike, his car and a couple of bound spirits (not shown for just this reason). I haven't even tried to load a rigger yet.....

I have to agree... I was running some relatively large combats at a convention, and while the encounters loaded in an acceptable time on my desktop when I set them up (5-10 minutes with a quad core athlon with 16 GB of Ram, 3 Hd's configured as optimally as I can get them and the characters on a USB3 flash drive). When I took the same flash drive to the convention and loaded it on my laptop (dual core athlon, 4 GB of Ram, 1 HD) it took almost 30 minutes.

I'm glad I loaded them at the start of the Shadowrun Mission, because by the time they were loaded I was ready for them, but if the party had skipped legwork, I'd have been screwed.

I have to agree with these criticisms. Portfolios take way too long to load. I would love to see a fix for this.
