Changes for v1.6:

* NEW. Changeling character sheet added.

* NEW. Modified Merit info field to include the full name of the merits.

* BUG FIX (All platforms). Fixed a problem where, if a large edit field was preceded with a blank line before text was entered, when the character sheet was next loaded again, the edit field would be presented as blank.

Changes for v1.5.3:

* NEW. Added an Open Recent menu that can hold up to the most recent 15 character sheets.

Changes for v1.5.2:

* NEW. Added a Change Log viewer to the Help menu.

* BUG FIX (Windows-only). The Format menu was behaving improperly and was unusable. Now all format options are available in all large edit fields (more than one line large).

* NEW. Added a Check for Updates item to the Help menu. The program will now check on the official download space on the server for the latest version and allow the user to download the program, if newer. This function automatically launches (if necessary) the user's preferred web browser and downloads a zipped archive of the program and all data files currently available.

* NEW. Added a font menu for styled edit fields.

* NEW. Added a color picker menu for styled edit fields.



Changes for v1.5.1:

* NEW. Vault of Darkness has been tested for Windows VISTA compatibility. It works in Vista!

* BUG FIX (Mage template). Arcana were listed twice in the contextual menu. Fixed.

* BUG FIX (Wizard -- building a werewolf). Changing Renown did not refresh the gift lists. Fixed.

* BUG FIX (All Character windows): Trying to copy an "empty" character image caused a crash. Fixed.

* NEW. Werewolf template now has useable reference to Willpower and Essence in addition to Health.

* UPDATED. Werewolf template, forms tab. Display of character health has been made easier to see with special health boxes for Dalu, Urshul, and Gauru forms. The popup box to choose a health display on a per-form basis has been removed.


Changes for v1.5:

* UPDATED. Using the White Circle instead of White Bullet in text areas where dots and empty dots are needed. This produces a more consistent size of circles and dots across computing platforms and among font packages.

* NEW. Vampire/Werewolf sheets (in the version expanded to go to 10 dots for Attributes and Skills) now include a special informational list in the Notes tab. This list includes all gifts and disciplines recognized in the program's databases and lists them. Double-clicking them produces a reference including die rolls, what type of action is needed, etc. The Mage sheet offers similar functionality with the spell list and the rotes list; double-clicks will pull up a helpful floating window containing reference data relating to die rolls and actions and a few other helpful tidbits. The player is expected to have the books, though; the program is no replacement for them. Therefore, no description of the powers is given.

* NEW. Data from several more books is now included. Books include WtF The Rage, WtF Blood of the Wolf, WtF Lore of the Forsaken, Wtf The Pure, VtR Invictus, VtR Ordo Dracul, VtR Carthians, VtR Lancea Sanctum.

* NEW. Characters floating window -- NPC/Monster characters are now added to the Combat Summary when the button in the Character list is pressed. Skills are scanned and if found, appropriate skills are added. If no appropriate skill is found and the character is not a ghost or spirit, then the default of attribute -1 for lack of appropriate physical skill is applied, then shown in the Combat Summary window.

* NEW. Combat Summary window -- Changing the Health value causes the program to instantly respond by changing the damage column. I.e. if the health was increased, more "O"s are added. If health was decreased, the damage text is shortened from right to left.

* NEW. NPC/Monster window -- skill lists are now brought up by right-clicking in the skills field.

* NEW. NPC/Monster window -- basic merits are now listed by right-clicking in the merits field.

* NEW. NPC/Monster window -- ghost and spirit numina are now listed by right-clicking in the powers field.

* NEW. NPC/Monster window -- increased health/corpus dots and boxes to 25 as well as Spendable Traits dots and boxes to accommodate more powerful characters.

* NEW. Vampire window -- Restructured Discipline contextual menu to display complete list, by clan, covenant, and bloodline to make it easier to find various disciplines.

* NEW. Vampire window -- Restructured the Devotion contextual menu to display what the devotions the character meet prerequisites for, as well as a complete list of devotions.

* NEW. Vampire window -- Covenants combo box is replaced with an edit field with contextual menu.

* NEW. Vampire window -- Bloodlines combo box is replaced with an edit field with contextual menu.

* NEW. Werewolf window -- Restructured the Gifts contextual menu to display the complete list, lists by auspice, lists by tribe, and common lists.

* NEW. Werewolf window -- Restructured the Rites contextual menu to display rites by type.

* NEW. Added Preferences functionality so that users may choose what (supported) books to use in building their characters.

* NEW. Added the skill specialties lists to the skill fields (access by right-clicking) in the character wizard.

* NEW. Moved the Merits in the character wizard to contextual menus instead of combo popups.

* BUG FIX. In the character wizard, merits dots were not being calculated correctly to determine whether the correct number had been spent or not. Further, Mage characters with an Order chosen needed to get High Speech for free.

* BUG FIX. All listbox fields can now accept both Delete key and Backspace keys to delete rows. (Used to be Delete key only for Macs and Backspace only for Windows.) This limitation was due to the incorrect key code being used to test. 

* BUG FIX. (Windows version only.) Fixed a problem where selecting nothing from the Clans popup when using the character wizard to create a vampire would cause an error.

* BUG FIX. (Windows version only.) Fixed a problem where selecting a blank werewolf gift in the character wizard would cause the program to crash.

* BUG FIX. (Windows version only.) Text could not all be seen in the Mage and Werewolf template section of the character wizard. The text has been reformatted.

* BUG FIX. The New/Open window would hide itself if Open Existing File was chosen, but then canceled. On Windows, this meant the program would close. This problem was fixed.

* BUG FIX. Edit fields in combat summary list box behave more predictably. When Health is changed, so too does the damage field. However note that in order to cease editing a row you must either press enter or return while editing, or click on another row. 

* BUG FIX. In the character wizard when choosing merits, merits that had prerequisites of other merits would not show requirements properly.

* BUG FIX. In the character wizard when choosing merits that had merit prerequisites, the program would crash.
