New Community Package Install Question

[LazarX]

As a GM, do I download the Basic Pack and then the GM Pack, or just the latter?

The Basic Pack is inside the GM Pack so you don't need to download both. But if you did everything will still work just fine. This includes downloading both onto the iPad. It would just take longer and more bandwidth but nothing bad will happen.

The only two that will not run currently on the iPad is the GM Pack and the GM Mythic Pack. Once again the GM Mythic Pack has everything from the Basic Pack and the GM Pack.

I was trying to make it "easy" to use as in many people will just need to download and use a single Pack.

I downloaded the Mythic Pack and all the others save the GM Pack and the Basic Pack

Got the following errors:
File:Com_Basic Pack AP073 The WorldwoundIncursion.user Line 72-Thing Duplicate Record encounter pAP73Wards
File:Com_GMMythicPack AP073 The WorldwoundIncursion.user Line 4-Thing Duplicate Record encounter pAP73BrkLg

I can fix these manually by deleting the duplicate records and it will be fine, but just letting you know. I had the exact same problem last time I updated.

This makes no logical sense. I am running these all at home. The only way this could happen is you have an old file named "AP073 - The World Wound Incursion.user" still that the installer is not removing. Can you see if you have any .user files named "APxx -"?

Yes I do. it's called APP073_The Worldwound Incursion (CB-Mythic).user I have a bunch of AP .user files

So that file should be getting deleted during the install. I just double checked the repository and I missed that file. Oppss. May bad!

Just delete it now manually and you will be good from now on. I will make sure I add that file to the delete list for the GM Mythic Pack installer. Sigh one file....

Already did that and It's good to go.

I assume that having installed the GM Mythic Pack, I should ignore requests to update the Basic Pack?

Yes. You could also "remove" the basic pack (Tools->Manage Third Party Updates) and then install the GM Mythic Pack one more time. Then you won't get any future messages about the Basic Pack.
