Translation stuff is one step closer to being done! There's not a huge amount left, but it'll still be a while. Figured it's best to get some of the critical changes I made tested now to make sure I haven't broken anything.

Build 211

added support for <judgeintentions /> to the Improvement Manager which improves a character's Judge Intentions Special Attribute Test
added support for <liftandcarry /> to the Improvement Manager which improves a character's Lift and Carry Special Attribute Test
added support for <memory /> to the Improvement Manager which improves a character's Memory Special Attribute Test
added Judge Intentions bonus to Kinesics Adept Power
Gear items no longer lose their context menus as a result of drag-and-drop
entering a blank name when adding a new Location is now treated in the same manner as clicking Cancel
moving a piece of Gear using drag-and-drop now marks a character as having unsaved changes
adding a Location now marks a character as having unsaved changes
+/- now appear next to Locations when they have Gear to allow them to be expanded and collapsed as desired
Free Spirit Critter Powers are now only available for Free Spirits
Emergent Critter Powers are now only available to Sprites and A.I.s
Shapeshifter Critter Powers are now only available to Shapeshifters
Select PACKS Kit window now displays Negative Qualities that are a part of the selected Kit
Hacked software no longer adds the Copy Protection and Registration plugins
Add Location button now repositions itself to avoid overlapping with other buttons
corrected the logic for calculating Essence Loss and maximum Essence which was causing characters with an Infected Quality to incorrectly report spending BP on their first point of MAG and Cyberzombies from receiving the correct bonuses/penalties to their Attributes
Initiation/Submersion Grade names now read from the language file

New Strings

String_Varies
String_Grade
String_Network
String_Group
String_Task
String_Ordeal

Hello,

Great work. I found some bugs:

Firearms skills tool tip error
The firearms skills (Pistols, long arms, automatics, heavy weapon) tool tip is not displaying that smartlink bonus is added if you have not bought points in the skill and have some smartlink gear.

Smartlink bonus not on character sheet
The bonus displays in the program, but not on the character sheet.

Modular plug-ins
The section of Modular Plug-ins shouldn’t be available accept as plug-ins for cyberlimbs that have the Cyberlimb implant (AU p 46 Implant Table) installed. Not sure if you can do that.

Power foci
Power foci are not adding to magical skill dice pools.

Weapon foci
I get an error when I go to check the weapon focus in the Bonded Foci box on the Gear tab of the Street Gear page. Error:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I have used Damien Knight's CG spreadsheet for a long time, and now that I've had experience with Chummer, I think I prefer it over the spreadsheet.

One area that I think could be improved is the way Gear is organized. I would like the option to sort all gear alphabetically or by "section" i.e. B&E Tools, Foci, Ammunition. Improved drag n' drop functionality would also be appreciated. For example, if I had a backpack, I would like to be able to drag n' drop various pieces of gear into it, or to put ammo into spare clips.
One more thing that would really be icing on the cake would be a "custom item", that costs 1 nuyen and allows you to put a title into it, like "Custom Item (TMNT Action Figure)" or whatever. This way, you could have quantity represent the cost, and the item's name would be visible in the list.

You can create groups / bags or whatever in the gear section, it's called Location. You can give it a name or not and move stuff in different places. If you have a lot of stuff, just shrink a bag and open it when you need the stuff inside.

I think I found a new bug in Adept powers.

I choose Improved Physical Attribute, with the default power rating 1. The program displays "x 0.75 / level = 1.50"

It looks like the program thinks I want one more level than what I am selecting.

BTW, I updated today.

This is because the adept power has a variable cost per level. As long as the power does not bring your total attribute above your natural maximum it is 0,75*level. Above the natural maximum it is twice the cost or 1.5*level.

This is a pie in the sky request. I don't expect this to have any priority. In a perfect world...

Now that you added the amazing Location feature to the gear area (I'm working on XSLT to show items in the Locations, I'll give it to you when I'm finished), It would make my experience perfect if I could divide item stacks. By that I mean, say if I have purchased 60 rounds of ammo, I would like to be able to divide it into 2 stacks, so that I could put some in my Backpack Location, and some in my Apartment Location.

It's finally finished! It probably doesn't mean much to most people, but data translation support is finally implemented!

Time to go flop on the couch and be a vegetable for the night as a reward! The quick translation info can be found on the Language Support page on the Chummer Wiki.

added support for translating core data
Smartlink bonus should always appear in an Active Skill's tooltip if applicable
Smartlink bonus is included in Dice Pool and Total for Active Skills on printouts if applicable
checking and unchecking Foci in the Bonded Foci list should no longer throw errors
fixed an issue where attempting to select or add a Cyberware Suite that contained anything with Second-Hand or Adapsin in its Grade would throw an error
selecting a Martial Art Advantage or Martial Art Maneuver now show the sourcebook and page number for the item

Yeah, I'm starting to see the need for splitting stack a little more. I'm going to have to re-think how I'm doing Gear purchases since, at the moment, buying a type of Ammo you already have (matching name and Weapon Category) just adds to the existing stack if it's already there.

I see, yes, I ran into that on my manual work-a-round.

I was able to make stacks by manually editing the .chum file in Notepad++, but that's probably not optimal for the average user. Like I said, no rush for me, as I can work around it.

When I put a note on a piece of gear (or anything else) it doesn't print or display anywhere I can find, nor is there any indicator I can find that the note exists except remembering to open that particular note.

It isn't a critical issue as I can just use the notes block of character info. I'll class it as Nice to Have once the important stuff is done.

I ran into a problem while working on the XSLT... small matter that Location doesn't make it to the XML file that the print-out produces.

I was looking at the .chum file and saw the location node, and I have been beating my head against the wall for an hour trying to figure out when the location wasn't showing up in the print.

One other UI item... I can't order the Locations in the gear list. It only shows locations in the order you add them, and there is no way that I see to remove them either.

A quick kudo to Nebular for all the hard work on Chummer!

Now, on to the bugs!

1. The Registration option for Software shouldn't come in different ratings.
2a. The 3 suites (Basic User, Basic+, Pro User) under Matrix Programs automatically come with Copy Protection and Registration options, even though the individual programs for the suites already have those options as well.
2b. The Copy Protection option listed under the Suites has no rating, causing a "System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Value of '0' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'Minimum' and 'Maximum' Error when you click on the option.
2c. If you add one of the 3 Matrix Program suites as a plugin to a commlink, the Copy Protection and Registration options under the Suite goes away when you close and re-open the character. This does not happen if you add the suite as gear, i.e. not under an existing commlink.
3. The Progam Packages category should be available to be added as a plugin to a Commlink.
4. When you're dragging and dropping gear items to re-arrange them, if you drag and drop an item as if you're trying to add it as a sub-item to a piece of gear, the program hangs.
Steps to recreate:
1. Add a gear item, a CMT Clip commlink.
2. Add a the Basic Userprogram suite to the commlink as a plugin.
3. Add another gear item, an EMP grenade.
4. Make sure all nodes under the CMT Clip commlink are fully expanded and drag and drop the EMP Grenade under the Suite: Basic User line. Chummer should hang with the drag cursor still active.
5. The Ceramic Components and Plasteel Components weapons modifications don't actually modify the cost of other mods to the same weapon.
6. Battle Rifles isn't one of the listed Specializations under the Automatics skill.

And one small question:
Would you accept monetary donations in appreciation of your work on Chummer?

I've updated the Skills file to include Battle Rifles as a Specialization for Assault Rifles, and Gear to correct the Cost and Ratings of number of Program Options as well as giving Commlinks access to the Program Packages Category. The rest will be addressed in the next update as they are changes to the code.

As far as Ceramic and Plasteel Components are concerned, they seem to be working properly from what I can see. Their price is based off the Weapon's base price (not include any other Accessories or Mods), and the cost of other Accessories/Mods are not impacted by other items.

Donations? I've had a few people ask about that now. I'm still trying to decide if I want to or not. The only thing that's really keeping me from doing it is that (based on past observations elsewhere - I'm not trying to say this would be the case here) people sometimes get this notion that it's now paid software and that they're entitled to certain things or that their issues should now carry more weight, nor do I want it to appear that I'm playing favourites in terms of addressing some issues before others. I'll take a little more time to think about it and post something here if I decide to go along with it.

Exotic Skills are in the skills.xml file. They're the last 3 items in the Active Skills list (since they're Active Skills anyways) and identified by <exotic>Yes</exotic> (just before <skillgroup />). Only Exotic Skills have the <exotic> tag and there are only 3 of them (Exotic Melee Weapon, Exotic Ranged Weapon, and Pilot Exotic Vehicle).

I know I mentioned this in PM, but I'll mention it here as well so anyone else who might look at doing translation stuff sees it as well: Specializations will not be translated. The list that is in the Skills file is just a list of suggestions. The player/GM is free to enter whatever they like Specialization field for Active and Knowledge skills.

Forgot all about that. Along with the Judge Intentions Improvement, I'll also add support for Lift and Carry and Memory Improvements for the next update should anyone decide they want to create custom items that affect those.

Appreciate it! Has catalyst come out of the wood work and offered to buy chummer yet?

I think there's a problem in the way you handle translated lists.

I'll give you a file, it contains armor.xml and skills.xml. For skills, it makes an exotic skill under any charcter's skill list, and if you try to add an armor, you'll see "armure" and "armor" at the end of the list. I'm quite sure that don't comes from "my" translated armor.xml and item.xml.

Hold a sec, I give you the file.

I'm not seeing a problem. Armor also looks fine when I add it andt he Skills list ends with VetTech (Technologie vétérinaire) properly with no Exotic Skills mixed in there. Could you give me a screenshot that shows what is appearing weird for you?

Nope, largely because I don't mobile device development. I'd imagine a mobile version of this would be pretty difficult to use as there's not really enough screen space to work with. It might work as a web app, but that's not something I plan on doing. Maintaining it on a single platform is enough work already.

Would it be possible to add something like a Perception "round up" in the Other Info tab and on the character sheet?

There are a lot of things that provide perception modifiers and most of them only apply to one sense (visual, hearing, etc). It would be handy to have a summary that showed the total perception score (or, maybe, number of dice) broken down by each sense.

Bah. This is apparently a problem with Martial Arts and a recent change I had to make to it to accommodate printing the sourcebook info for other languages. I'll have this fixed in the next update. I'll have it ready later today since there are a few other little errors that should be squashed.

As far as Ceramic and Plasteel Components are concerned, they seem to be working properly from what I can see. Their price is based off the Weapon's base price (not include any other Accessories or Mods), and the cost of other Accessories/Mods are not impacted by other items.

From what I can quote from page 150 of Arsenal, it does not agree with what you are saying:

QUOTE

For the cost modifier you do not use the weapon’s basic cost, but its actual cost (basic cost + all previous modifications), because all those parts must be replaced in order for the modification to function properly. Likewise, when further modifying a weapon with the ceramic/plasteel components modification, apply the cost modifier to the material costs of the new modification and raise its Availability to that of the ceramic/plasteel modification, unless it is already higher. For example, if a character wants to modify a Level 3 ceramic/plasteel rifle with a gas-vent 3 system (400¥, Availability 6R), he has to pay 2,400¥ (6 x 400) and the Availability for the material is not 6R but 20F.

Ok. Anytime I load a character with a bonded weapon focus (force 4 in tests), it errors out with the following:

[ Spoiler ]

This does not occur with bonded power focus, nor does it happen if you don't bond the weapon focus. It happens with previously made characters and with ones made as test characters. Just updated chummer this evening.

I have made an XSLT that puts the gear in Locations.
Shadowrun4GearLocations.xsl

I changed the gear1, gear2 and gear3 templates, and I updated line 5 to include an additional microsoft library for xsl.

It is pretty simple, so if you have any ideas you want me to work on that might make it better, let me know.

Edit:
I'm loving this msxsl:node-set thing I found. I've updated the template also for dividing the Skills into SkillCategories as well. For that I just changed the skills1 and skills2 templates.
