** Core Supplemental
* GCA Prime Sheet (now 1.0.5)
Fixed an issue in the attack blocks where notes weren’t being printed (based on footnotes settings, which weren’t meant to apply to this).
* Launchcodes.xml
Brave, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox now added to the available PDF readers you can set in Options.
After this update my program will no longer generate the pop up windows for things such as a new camp. or modifiers to advantages. It just generates a blank pop up window.
A data package update like this one does nothing at all to the program itself, so nothing about how GCA operates should have been affected; certainly not dialogs like Modifiers.
Try reinstalling GCA from your Warehouse 23 download. If that doesn’t fix it, then you may need to do a full ‘clean’ reinstall.
To do a clean reinstall, follow these steps (IF you did a default install):
1) Uninstall GCA from Add or Remove Programs.
2) Go to “%ProgramData%\Steve Jackson Games” and delete the GURPS Character Assistant 5 folder. (You can copy everything between the quotes, but not including the quotes, to paste into a file explorer location bar to go directly to that location.)
3) Go to “%AppData%\Steve Jackson Games” and delete the GURPS Character Assistant 5 folder. (You can copy everything between the quotes, but not including the quotes, to paste into a file explorer location bar to go directly to that location.)
(If you did a “For Me Only” install, just delete the entire folder where you installed GCA. If you installed into Documents, and keep all your characters in the same folder, be careful not to delete those folders.)
This will remove *all* data related to GCA5 *except* your personal data stored in Documents. So you’ll lose all downloaded plugins, all Options settings, etc., but you won’t lose characters or libraries.
