For those of you having issues with data files, still, here are some of the ways to fix the issues.
First off a common issue now is that if you have any Edges that have a bootstrap for a weapon those need to be changed to a different "Component Set'.
EDIT: Also for Edges that previously worked but are not giving timing errors (usually having to do with the use of Natural Weapons or Natural Armor, it seems) changing those with the below process also seems to fix the problem.
Probably the easiest way to fix that is not through the Editor but to use a text editor or, even better, an XML editor like Notepad++. Search the file that's giving you the errors for the following:
<bootstrap thing="wp
Then look up sever lines for one that starts with:
<thing id=
Look through that line for something that says "compset" and it is says:
compset="Edge"
Change it to read:
compset="EdgeWep"
Many of these will actually be things like compset="Vehicle" or RacialAbility or the like, don't worry about those as they'll be fine, just look for the ones with "Edge" in them.
Several files also now have some oddball timing issues in them. There are a couple of files you can fix fairly easily by doing the following:
For WideningGyre: On Vehicle tab for mars select the vehicle "Beauregard Walking Gun Platform", click on Containerreq and remove the part of the Tag Expression that says "source.OrigVeh & " leaving source.TimeModern should be fine. Then do the same of the vehicle "Imperiatrix Armored Airship"
On Edges go to "Tough hide", click Eval Scripts and change the Priority from 5000 to 2000.
Torg:
Edge, Rocket Ranger, Bootstrap, remove the boostrap for armToRRBat
Deadlands: Reloaded: Had to remove the boostrap on the Captain edge for adding a Maze Runner. (This will probably fix the problem if you are using either my file or dartnets"
For those bootstraps you'll just need to remember to manually add those things in, so, for example, with the Captain Edge in Deadlands: Reloaded you'll just have to remember to manually add a free Maze Runner to the sheet since the bootstrap seems to give some oddball timing errors.
EDIT: Those are all Edges so moving them to be EdgeWep compsets may also fix those issues while still allowing for the Bootstraps on them.
I'll be updating my unofficial DLR file shortly so you should be able to get a working version from the same location I previously sent to you by this evening (well, evening my time so evening if you are in the States, anyway.) (EDIT: that file was updated for anyone who hadn't realized it yet, so feel free to redownload.)

It did indeed work as I expected it to.
