Edsel Posted April 15, 2023 Report Posted April 15, 2023 My HDv3.jar file is dated 10/20/2013. I have not used it in many years. But our group is about to dive back into Hero System gaming. I have the latest Java installed. The program opens just fine but it locks up my computer if I try to play with anything in any tab other than the Basic Info, Background, or Characteristics tab. I have to use Task Manager to quit Hero Designer and unfreeze my system. Is this just a matter of my HDv3.jar file being an antique that needs to be replaced? Quote
Simon Posted April 15, 2023 Report Posted April 15, 2023 Probably just a matter of an equally old appPrefs.xml placing modal dialogs off of the current screen. Delete appPrefs.xml before starting HD and see if that fixes things. Edsel 1 Quote
Edsel Posted April 15, 2023 Author Report Posted April 15, 2023 Yeah, I think that has fixed it. Thanks a bunch. I am very rusty with this program. Quote
unclevlad Posted April 15, 2023 Report Posted April 15, 2023 It's not something you deal with directly, so it's reasonable not understanding what the file's even for...much less that you want to delete it. Quote
