Just purchased Hero Designer... Now What?

[Lars 0]

So I lost my previous CD of Designer.  So I repurchased it today... Am I in a holding period until the Snail Mail gets it delivered as a CD again?   Is there a downloadable option?  I was hoping to run a game at a Con coming up.  Anyone have insight on this?

Wow...the CDs haven't been sold for a LONG time. Didn't realize there was still anyone out there using that version...

All purchases for HD are download-only -- you can access the download by going to the Purchases section of your Client Area on this site. Store -> Manage Purchases or Store -> Client Area -> Purchases.

 I had purchased and used Hero designer v3 back in the day and my droid died so no designer, I am thinking of purchasing the new version or what ever is supported

but I must have access to my old characters created by version 3, so here goese;

1) what is the latest version?

2) is it backwards compatible with my version 3 files?

3) will it run on Win/10?

On a similar question. I have HDv3 installed and hit the get update tool. Got taken to a shutdown website. How do I update the software?

I'm pretty sure you'll have to buy Hero Designer v6.  The support model changed to a subscription-based service several years ago.
