(Drop Dead Studios) Spheres of Power: Official Support Thread

Alright, I made a tweak to the XMLs. Do you still get the error?

 

[asvaldson]

I'm still having issues with HL telling me that I need to update to uSoP v1.41, SoM v1.22, and CotS v1.51 Even after I update and restart HL.

It's still happening, unfortunately.

 

[WhiteUnggoy]

Good to know. I'll reach out to TheIronGolem and see if he has any insight on what I need to do with the XML file.

Hello WhiteUnggoy, FYI, I am also receiving SoM v1.22, and CotS v1.51 error.

 

[Aril]

Any luck with resolving these problems?

I can successfully download and install the update for Champions of the Spheres v.1.51.

But I'm still having the same problem with Ultimate Spheres of Power v.1.41 and Spheres of Might v1.22.

 

[asvaldson]

You may want to double check, I'm getting the errors, but the files are still correct. It's annoying, yes, but still useable.

 

[Ualaa]

I get the notification that there is an update.
But even installing the update, it is the same version I already have.

Just ignoring the option to update gets me into Hero Lab.
And I can use the program fine.

 

[WhiteUnggoy]

Alright, I found the time to properly mess with the .xml files today and near as I can tell, I fixed the 'old version' error. Pipe up if you're still having problems.

General's Handbook is down to the last probably 6 hours of work on my end. I think this coming weekend is busy enough that I still won't have files off to Adam by end of February, but it's real close regardless. The next few handbooks then ought to come quicker then cuz they'll be much more straight forward.

CLOSE! lol, Spheres of Might is fine, but I'm still getting notified to update Champions and uSoP

Huh, for other reasons I formatted my laptop this weekend. After reinstalling Hero Lab and installing the uSoP, SoM and CotS I'm not getting the error at all anymore. no more being prompted to updating. Seems like an extreme method though. If anyone else is still getting the issue, I'd suggest Uninstalling and doing a fresh install of everything rather than nuking their OS.

 

[WhiteUnggoy]

Well, thanks for letting me know; I'm gonna take more time to properly sit down and fiddle with it after I get this book out. Anyway just popping into say that there *was* an unexpected hiccup in getting the General's Handbook ready to go that took a day and a half to sort out, but sorted it is, so expect another update and that release real soon.

Getting the "need to update" error

USoP v1.41 and CotS v1.51 update and still say they need to be updated.

Is there a fix?

I'm still having the same problem. It's one for Spheres of Power, but I'm still having it for the other two books.

 

[WhiteUnggoy]

General's Handbook is off to bossmang, and new updates are live for CotS, SoM, & USoP. Tried another thing with the .xmls! Pipe up if the updates are still griefing you.

lol funny enough, it isn't hightlighting that it needs updating. The updates are THERE. I can click and update just fine. but it isn't alerting and bolding them, at least not for me. They do work though. I appreciate your work on these for us. A couple of the bugs I looked into and the scripting made my head hurt, if I could buy you a beer I would

The "Drawback Feat" boon doesn't work in the UI. It has a "Add feat (1 remaining)", but when you click it an select a feat, it doesn't mark the feat in any way as a Bonus feat, so the "(1 remaning)" doesn't go down, and it consumes one of your actual feat slots.

I think it needs to have "<autotag group="Helper" tag="Free"/>" on the panel (and likely some additional tag, so only the correct feats appear in this UI), as well as some logic in a component to actually decrement resSPDBFt.resLeft somewhere.

 

[bob_xxii]

I'm also having problems using "Ultimate Spheres of Power" and "Spheres of Might" on my iPad... trying to install one seems to uninstall the other (presumably because they share the DDS Common files).

 

[Life Swordsman]

So I recently bought USoP, SoM, and CotS. Got them installed no problem and updated from the source. However, after enabling them under Configure Hero, I can't seem to find Crimson Dancer and Warden from CotS, along with several CotS archetypes, including Champion Bard, Beast Bender, and Masterwork Chronicler. I'm curious if I actually did install the Spheres packages correctly, or if I was supposed to do something like install/update them in a specific order.
