Updated and now 4e not working

it's the only game I've got that's not working. the error code I'm getting is:

The data files could not be loaded due to the following errors:

File: ddi_weapon_properties.aug (line 3) - Unspecified error
 
Do you have any custom content for 4e? That sounds like it might be a corrupt file issue, so you might want to try re-downloading the 4e game system.
 
I already tried that, just in case. The only thing I haven't tried yet is completely uninstalling and reinstalling the software. I'd like to avoid that due to having to ask for the license to be re-allowed.
 
Okay, I just updated and got the same error.

Thanks to you both, because we have a 4e session on Sunday and I've send an emergency warning to the group not to update.

Luckily, I am paranoid enough to keep copies of older installs just in case so I was able to roll back to 8.4d for now.

I'll report it to Lone Wolf and cross my fingers that anybody cares. I encourage you to do the same at support@wolflair.com so they know that they still have a 4e user base.

EDIT: Here is a link to the Hero Lab 8.4d install.

Hello everyone,

I'm updating the thread to let our Users know that with your help we have identified the problem and are working on a fix now.

The update to fix this should be in a patch that will be coming down early next week, probably Monday or Tuesday. We apologize for the frustration and lack of function this has caused, and truly appreciate everyone giving their feedback to help find a solution to the problem.

As Charlieluce mentions, rolling back your 8.5 HL installation will function as a temporary work-around until the patch has been delivered.

Thanks again!

Thank you, Ryan!

By the way, got confirmation from another player that the bug affects the Mac version of Hero Lab, and he doesn't have the 8.4d install to roll back. Is there any way to get it?
 
We're just happy it was spotted by users and fixed by our dev so quickly. Our apologies for the error!
 
So wish that the 4E files had been finished or that the last template could be added, I am afraid even with all the talented fan work that we just are not capable of make the changes that need to be done for the full HL program to help develop the last few books of characters and races.

SAbel, I apologize, I had not been aware that you needed help. What can I help with? What changes do you need to make?
 
Hey Mathais,
Long time.... the last books, heroes of ... the classes are different and need some special adaptations. The races and their racial powers are hard to make work together (somehow I have every racial power say in the key words "tinker gnome" and I cant fix it)
I will start working a list as I have time. It's small things that need a knowledge of how the heart of the program works.
