    AB File Download Problem

    When I attempt to download my Dark Age AB data file from the "View Updates" feature I get the following error message (see http://home.earthlink.net/~darkhost1/AB_problem/AB_problem.htm for screen capture of error message). I have checked and I have plenty of space (41 MB) on my hard drive...

    Disappearing Roster

    I recently decided that I wanted my data directory to be named "Dark_Age" instead of "DA". When I changed the directory name it caused all of the rosters associated with one .dat files for the game system to not appear (i.e., no squads appear in the "Available Squads" display box). However, the...

    Inserting blank lines in roster output

    I am trying to get a blank line to appear between each item (e.g., Tag Group, Option) that is displayed in the info block. I can get the blank line between options by putting a return after the last line of text in the option description. But that does not get me a line between the Tag Group...

    Question on Exclusions and Options

    I am looking to apply exclusions to options available to units. In specific, there are a number of options that are available to a number of units. The number of options that a given unit can have is dependent on the unit. In an effort to save data entry time, I created an option (IceFoci) to...

    Counting Models for Profiles

    Based on the pop-up tool description for "model" in the Final Test Scrip dialogue box, it seems that @bar = model should set the composition summary bar for a given profile to equal to the number of models in the units evaluated by the Profile per its the Qualify Tag Expression. In my specific...

    Displaying Weapon Stats

    I am working on AB files for Dark Age. In that rule set, all weapons have the same set of statistics. Currently I am providing the weapon stat line information in the Description of the Option that defines a weapon. In some cases two weapons are defined in a single option, as the two can be used...

    Displaying Tag Groups

    I have defined a Tag Group (Special) to assign special abilities to units. The visible? box is checked for the group. The group is included in the "Info Groups" for all views (e.g., available, roster, output) on the View page. And I have assigned tags from the group to units. However, no special...

    Total Army Point Cost Question

    First, I am assuming that since the value is displayed, the total army/roster point cost is a roster statistic internally calculated by AB. If so, what is the syntax for accessing the total point cost of an army/roster? If my assumption is incorrect, then what is the proper way to reference a...

    Output View

    I have set my default Output view to display seven column groups, however, when I look at the print preview, only one column group appears. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong? -DH

    Tags, Tag Groups, and Stats

    I am now having a problem adding a second set of stats to my AB files. Specifically, I have defined a number of Tag Groups (per the Example Army .def file) for the stats, defined the stats under "Unit Stat" and and defined a stat set under "StatSet" for the stats. However, now when I try to...

    "Effective" attribute

    I am sure it is right in front of me, but I cannot seem to find where the "effective" attribute is set in the "Unit" tab of ABCreator. Could someone please point me to where I can set the "effective" attribute. Thanks. -DH

    Child Units In the Example Army List

    Why is it that for the AB v3.1 Example Army the child units (e.g., sergeant) do not appear on the Options screen in ABCreator? I have been trying to use the Example Army to figure out how to develop my own .def and .dat files. In this specific instance I could not figure out how the Sergeant...
