It says version 1.0 for Wild.

I'm fairly sure I have every Sphere package available.

Thanks. See if HL will detect a 1.2 update for Wild Magic, please. I posted that a few days ago to prep for USoP coming out, but I'm concerned to see if the update detection caught it. Some other people are getting a similar, but not identical, error involving Wild Magic, and I think I was confusing two different problems.

[Ualaa]

It didn't show as an update with the exclamation mark.
But clicking it manually has the 1.2 version.

That resolved my issue, thank you.

I was able to reproduce your error by installing an older version of SoM (1.17). There are some common files shared between SoP and SoM that can cause problems if they get out of sync. If you haven't already, please update SoM to version 1.18 and let us know if you still have any issues.

EDIT: If your HL hasn't been detecting SoM 1.18 as available, it should now. I just now found that I failed to update a remote file when I posted that update.

USoP version 1.2 is available now. If anyone is still experiencing errors after updating, please let me know.

I'm not getting an error, but now an update for Spheres of Might is showing and won't go away--I've downloaded/imported it several times now, closed and re-opened Hero Lab, etc. It's Spheres of Might v1.18 from 03-Aug-2021. I don't remember it showing yesterday, despite that date being older...

EDIT: Just noticed this from your post last night:

If your HL hasn't been detecting SoM 1.18 as available, it should now. I just now found that I failed to update a remote file when I posted that update.

So that explains why the update just showed up for me, though not why it won't go away after I download/import it.

On a separate note--I've found a couple issues with the Chain Net ability/modification from Spheres of Might. Though it says in the text, "Requires net or snag net," it only works with the net. If your weapon is a snag net and you add it, it appears in red. Also, the Chain Net should add 100gp to the value/price of the item, and it's not doing that. Third/final thing I've noticed is that adding Chain Net does not get Hero Lab to recognize the weapon as being metal now (for the purposes of picking special materials like adamantine and mithral).

Actually, now I am getting errors. It might have been different before because I had opened a portfolio directly, then did the update from in there. After closing Hero Lab, I opened it (without going straight into a character portfolio) and tried running that SoM v1.18 update again. Then I opened my portfolio again and got this:

The data files could not be loaded due to errors. Hero Lab will now attempt to load them in recovery mode. Once loaded, you can access the editor as normal to correct any errors.

[asvaldson]

I'm having an identical list of errors as Kaente above.

[Keante]

I decided to try clearing everything out and doing a fresh download/import of all my Pathfinder files.

I deleted everything inside these two folders:
C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\data\pathfinder
C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\download

Then I opened Hero Lab and started downloading and importing everything I needed. Started with the Hero Lab for Windows (V8.9h), then the Pathfinder game system, followed by the Pathfinder Pack (community pack), World Is Square, Spheres of Might, Ultimate Spheres of Power, and Champions of the Spheres. I didn't bother to do any of the old SoP Handbooks, figuring I don't need them now that USoP is here.

I then opened my character portfolio with no errors.

Hero Lab still keeps trying to tell me that I need to update Spheres of Might to v1.18, though, not sure why that won't go away.

[asvaldson]

I did the same thing. I got Pathfinder Community pack and USoP and it worked fine. once I added SoM I got the error again
