5e Community Pack and iPad
 

My sister just got a new iPad Pro and gave me her old iPad 2. I installed Hero Labs and activated it with one of my spare liscenses.

However I am have a problem getting it to install the Community Pack. I inserted the updates address but get nothing. Do I have to manually createdd an export .hl file then add it to the iPad???

Once you put the address in it usually let's you download the update. Sounds like something is not working.

I ended up exporting my own .hl file using all the COM_ files in the 5e folder. Then did the same with my own .user files. Everything worked, byt I wasn't sure if that is what I should be doing.

I am back at home so I'll get back to thwe scripting I was doing for the Community Pack asap.

Nope.

Once you add the new Update Source click the blue button at the top left marked "Check for updates now". After that you should see the "D&D 5e Community Pack v1.8" displayed. Just click on it to download and install.

I actually just did this on my iPad to verify its all working and it did. :)

P.S. - Its not going to hurt to make your own .hl file. But you should only need to do that for your custom files.

Chemosh:

This is the url I used:

http://www.shadowsoftware.net/herolab/5e/updates.xml

Should I be using something else?

That is correct. Its the same URL for all versions of HL (Windows/Mac/iPad). No idea about HLO. :)

When I added the address and clecked 'Check for Updates Now, D&D 5th Edition for iPad showed up, but it wouldn't add anything under Installed Updates.

Is there an easy way to remove updates, or do I need to completely reinstall HL for iPad tp get rid of a .hl I created?

Pack FAQ#2 has full details and pics. But basically you left swipe on the .hl file name to bring up delete.

Gah, I'll have to go back to they way I'd done it before I got things working the proper way.

I'd forgotten I had a conflict between the UA Artificer and one I'd been using. Conflicting class names. I'd fixed it on the PC by deleteing the COM_ file that was giving me my issue. I can't do that on the iPad <sigh>
