Hi everyone,
A beta version of Hero Lab is now available! You can download it here: (Links removed - thanks for your help with the betas, everyone!) We've been testing this build internally for the last few weeks, and we're pretty sure it's ready for prime time - we'd just like some extra eyes on it before it goes out on general release. The big new feature of this release is increased evaluation speed of Hero Lab - you shouldn't have to wait quite as long before HL displays the changes of actions you take, resulting in a smoother user experience. Compiling the Pathfinder data files should also be quicker by about 30% on Windows, which I hope all the data file authors out there will appreciate. Please let me know in this thread if you run into problems or crashes with this new version. If you run into problems, you can simply download the old version of Hero Lab from our web site and reinstall it. Thanks for your help! Last edited by Colen; January 23rd, 2017 at 07:57 AM. |

I just installed those latest. Not a big deal but the settings I had in Configure Your Hero where all turned off. Everything was off. Not hard to fix but FYI.

*Everything* everything? Was this in previously saved portfolios, or when creating a new character?

I opened a character and told HL to set the settings of that character. So easy to fix. But thought I would mention it. This was on a Win7 x64 computer.

FYI: I'm still getting a crash if I try to move a character via dashboard, eg. Move to Top/Bottom/Up/Down.
I sent a crash report already for the previous beta, do you want a new one for this version? -Jamz RPTools.net | MapTool Discord Invite Download Latest MapTool Release | Download Latest TokenTool Release |

I'm seeing the "checkboxes cleared" issue when I import the Yangethe from the Iron Gods Encounter Library. I haven't noticed it with the other Book 4 creatures I've imported so far, but the Yangethe cleared the Iron Gods GM Content box and reported itself as an illegal choice, so it was hard to miss. :P
Interestingly enough, it didn't appear to happen with the Yangethe from the Encounter Builder, just the Encounter Library. Currently Running: Pathfinder Second Edition Currently Playing: Pathfinder First Edition, Star Trek Adventures Former HL Games: D&D 4e & 5e, Mutants & Masterminds 2E & 3E, Savage Worlds |

It's happening because we used to "minimize" the sources for portfolios like this before we sent them out, i.e. select only the ones we thought it needed - apparently there was a mistake here and the IG GM source wasn't checked. The monsters in the Encounter Builder have since been updated not to do that, but we haven't updated the Encounter Libraries yet. I'll put IG on the list to update after this week's Pathfinder release, and that should fix the issue with the Yangethe. |
