Hero Lab Error

K

I recently updated my Hero Lab(for pathfinder) and have encountered an error that I ran into last year when I had updated Hero Lab. When the Pathfinder Rules System is loading I get an error that reads:

File: PFRPG - Spell Compendium.user (line39043) - Thing Duplicate Record Encountered('cdDragon')

File: PFRPG - Spell Compendium.user (line39055) - Thing Duplicate Record Encountered('cdMoon')

I cannot for the life of me remember what I did to fix this error last time, and it stopping any of my 3rd party and my own user created content from appearing in Hero Lab, as well as preventing me from creating anything in the editor, when I attempt to test/save new rules,etc in the editor I receive this message again.

As far as I can tell I have completely deleted the spell compendium from my PC and am unable to find any files labeled cdDragon nor cdMoon. Oddly I can find the Cleric Domain Dragon in the game but not the Moon domain. At this point I don't even care about getting the spell compendium back I just want to be able to use the Editor.

Thank you so much for any help, I love you product!!! - karlbadmanners -
 
Something in your user files or third party files must have matching thingids. You'll need to either remove all your additional .user files or go through them one at a time through the editor to find out where it is. Then you'll need to either delete them or change the thingid. If you have windowsgrep or a similar program you can run a search on all your .user files for "cdMoon" or "cdDragon" to figure out which file(s) they are in as well.

Click to expand...
The name of the files is what ends in .user. cdDragon/cdMoon are the name of the "Things" in the Hero Lab editor.

So from inside of Hero Lab go to menu "Tools->Explore Folders->Program Data Folder". This will take you into the folder where all the .user files are stored. Then scroll down to "PFRPG - Spell Compendium.user" and if you don't want it at all any more just delete the file. Then close down HL and restart. Problem gone.

If you want to keep Spell Compendium then you need to open up the Editor and open up "PFRPG - Spell Compendium.user". Then go to the "Domain" tab and change "cdDragon" to "cdDragon1" and "cdMoon" to "cdMoon1". Then save and restart HL.

Hopefully one of the above works for you.
