V1.0i Released

[rob]

The V1.0i release of Hero Lab is now available. This new update features a number of key enhancements over the previous version, including the following:

1. Added a "gear" mechanism that supports the notion of containers and allows gear to be assigned to containers as the user deems appropriate. All weight is tracked for containers, and items can be freely moved between containers. Top-level containers (e.g. horses) do not propagate their weight to the hero. Moving a container from within one container to another properly moves all weight within that container.
2. Added all NPC classes from the SRD.
3. Added support for specialized races, including monstrous races. Nearly all of the races from the SRD are now implemented, and the few not yet added will be in the next release.
4. Added many of the missing templates.
5. Reduced the number of duplicate error messages that were reported when the same thing was incorrect many times. For example, 10 levels of Fighter that have no HP would report 10 errors and now only reports the error once.
6. Clicking within an incrementer to edit the value directly now presents the (intuitive) modified value for editing instead of the unmodified value.
7. Debug trace output from scripts can now be generated and output to a special info window to make debugging of scripts much easier.
8. Improved performance in various ways, both in terms of memory consumption and evaluation speed.
9. And lots more stuff!

The complete list of program changes will be found in the readme.txt file installed with the update. The complete list of d20 data file changes will be found in the data file FAQ.

Have fun!
