Well,
I have now converted my little brother to the power of Card Vault,
and he likes it alot except for two things.

1. He would like card values for the inventory, I told him that was
being worked on. Am I correct?

2. Since I bought the software I am using the Inventory for my
collection of LOTR. Is there anyway of making two inventories for one
game.

Also while I was saving his deck he discovered something in the LOTR
data file. The Ringwraith culture event card "The Nine Servants of
Sauron", #219, Fellowship Set is labeled an event. My brother has
this card and it is a condition on his card. I didnt see an FAQ
update on it and thought I should let it be known. Very Minor thing,
but still might need a look at.

Thanks for all the answers in advance.

Yes, btu don't expect speedy results. We're going to be working out a
solution to directly download card prices from Scrye and/or InQuest. Such
operations take time.

Noted. I'll get that fixed in the next release, which will also
include Two Towers. It's coming real soon, I promise. Does anyone else
have anything that they've spotted in the existing sets that is in error?

I just discovered something that I think you should be aware of. I
(finally) finished my inventory of LOTR and I printed out the
Inventory Report. It worked fine except for the fact that the first
card on the report "Answering the Cries" shows up at the top of every
page of the list. It is a Elf Lords Set card and on the second page I
was in the Fellowship list and it was still at the top and is the top
card again on every page. Other than that really great seeing all
that I have in a easy manner. Love it.

Also I got regisitered for the contest where you could win a complete
set of 1 out of 11 games or a case. Well I checked out the Rook site
and wow. I want one, their cases rock and I am going to get one of
those instead of a clear card holder. I suggest all players check out
there site, they have a new case for "click" figures.

Hrm. I'm not sure if this is my doing, or if the problem lies
somewhere between CV and your printer. What can you tell us about your
system (especially the OS and printer)?

They are very nice. I got one of the small ones at GenCon, and I
really like the durability of the metal over the assorted cardboard boxes I
had been using.

Ed answered this one. We're working to accomplish this, but it won't occur
overnight.

Each game system folder can have a single inventory database. However, you
can easily duplicate a game system so that you have multiple folders
containing the same game. To accomplish this, do the following:

1. Create a new folder beneath the "data" folder named "mybro".
2. Copy the data files for LotR into the "mybro" folder (copy the .def,
.dat, .ext, and .aug files).
3. Edit the file "lotr.def" and change the "folder=" line to specify the
new folder you're using.

Launch Card Vault and you should see two listings for LotR. Each will have
the appropriate folder name next to the game systme name. Load in the new
"mybro" game system and it should compile properly. Then open up the
inventory and you should be able to start a new inventory from scratch.

Note! I realize this is a bit of a hack. I didn't think of this detail
before V1.0 was released, so this is the only way to accomplish this within
V1.0. A better solutoin for this is on the todo list. I hope to have things
work a bit more cleanly in V1.1, with an elegant solution in a future update.

Hope this helps,
Rob

This was recently discovered as a bug in CV. It's slated to be fixed in
V1.1. The first card keeps getting repeated at the top of every page.
Rather stupid, eh? But at least it's just a cosmetic glitch. :-)

Thanks, Rob
