Soulbinder: Adam's email to contact him regarding Chummer is in the OP and is still valid the last time I checked. He mentioned a bit ago he was busy with personal stuff, so probably took a break for a bit, as Chummer is mostly functional. Though, there are obviously bugs to work out.

Hit him up. I can't guarantee he'll respond, but that's the best route at the moment. Second best route would be a PM on the forums.

Has the software been updated ?

The software has been updated several times, but since we have no idea which version you're using or when you last updated, we can't answer your question.  The best way to find out though is to start Chummer and tell it to look for updates.

so i have an issue with how chummer is displayed, no matter the size of the program it will not show me the bottom part of the program where current karma and nuyen is. this also means i have use the task manager to get out of chummer if i open the options as the button to get out is hidden. and the box for active skills is too small to use.

i don't think this is a bug on chummer's end just my computer and i was hoping someone else had run into this problem before and fixed it . i have the latest version of chummer

I have that, too, but no solution yet. My window snips off the bottom lines, so I cannot see the last skill in the knowledge skills box etc.

Wrong Table Entry: The Colt Inception from GH3 has it's firing modes listed as SA/FA. Should be SA/BF.

I don't know if this is a problem with the program or if im not doing something right, but I can't seem to load any ammo into my assault rifle. I have tons of assault rifle ammo. Said rifle IS mounted in a rotodrone. Does that make a difference?

lil help?

IIRC for vehicles and drones you have to move ammo to said vehicle or drone then load the weapon.  If you go to the gear tab and click on some ammo you should see a small button with a car icon.  You can use that to transfer ammo to the drone.  You can also buy ammo for the drone directly by right clicking on it and adding gear.  You can also transfer ammo from a vehicle/drone back your main inventory.

Anyone talked to Adam?
He's been out of touch since September 22nd the date of his last post.
Would be a pity if Chummer was lost because of this....

He hasn't logged on here since 9/25.  Said he'd been working 12's.  It's a big project for one guy.  Maybe somebody with programming skills could offer to help...  I'd be happy to contribute to his content purchase, but I don't know anything about programming.

I think a new tack might be a good thing for this project - open it up to the community, and have Adam approve all changes before release.  Sort of a gated version of standard open source programming.  I know he has no intention of making money on the project, as he has stated before.  He feels that Chummer originally belongs to Randall, who wrote the version that this is based on (Chummer 4).  Since Randall made the source code freely available, but didn't do an open source project, my suspicion is that Adam has been doing the same.

I really hope that he finds the time to come back to this, or make a shift to allow some of the coders in our community to contribute a little bit.

Yeah that would be a good call Nam, but it would require someone with skills and will to take it on,

They are placed under Ammunition, in the Gear list. It's confusing, but just select them there, and they will appear in your Weapons list.
