Encyclopedia Workaround

Postby Peaks » Fri Nov 23, 2018 1:05 pm

There is a known bug from DMB were we have a hard time restore V11 backups. However, I've got a workaround in place that I think will work.

1. Download the following file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/oqgnsudgk7ju9rg/BDBL.zip?dl=0
This is just a plain zip file of my full BDBL encyclopedia. But it's also huge (~250GB)

2. Unzip it somewhere under your DMBENC11 folder. It's already got a top level folder named BDBL to start, and then all the seasons and files are underneath it.

3. When you finish, open up the encyclopedia. Choose the "Add reference to existing encyclopieda" option and point to the BDBL folder that came from the ZIP.

That's it. DJ has tested and it's worked fine for him. I was also able to get it work on a second encyclopedia myself.

If you already have an old version of this file, you can just unzip on top of it, it should be fine.

Also, the 2018 season has been installed as well, so everything should be ready to go.
