The new edition of Tabletop Commander is still being born so it may take a while yet. The validation functionality and further documentation is going to be introduced sometime next week and that is probably what most people have been waiting on.
I wish I had the skills/knowledge to convert someone elses data to fit tabletop commander, but I just don;'t have the cognitive capacity for programming it seems
No one else fancy the challenge?

I know you wanted to make it bigger and better but an update to the old system would have been sufficient for the majority of players. I'm sure it would have been easier on the dev side as well.

Thanks for the work your putting into this, I used to use the first version all the time, just been waiting to start up again.
After the introduction of the Functionality & Documentation next week, are we going to be able to start using it as a list builder & collection like the old version? Or how far off is it from that realistically. If I wanted to use your program just to build lists and keep track of my collection like the old version, when will I be able to do that?
Thanks very much!
Yes, tweaking the old version would have been easier but I decided to take things another direction. Eventually the new version will eclipse the old version and allow for more growth as well. Also, I don't do easy. I either make the task unnecessarily complicated enough as to be proper or just take a nap instead.
After the validation functionality is in place data files will be able to support list building and list validation. However the data files will not be provided by me at this time because I am devoting my time to the application itself and enhancing the functionality.
The collection functionality will be introduced into the new version but the timing of that is up in the air. I want to round out a few more things with the list building functionality first, so it will be awhile yet.
any updates?
Yes, I have been doing most of my updates over on the Tabletop Commander forums as of late.
With last weeks release all of the functionality is in place to support army list construction.
Has anyone still set up a data file for download?
For those of us that don't want to have to input the data (I am sure there are enough people out there doing it already) this tool is about useless unless a section of your website is given over to where to find a data set. I loved the old version and this turn of direction saddens me.
Tabletop Commander is pretty much dead it seems.
