Missing Ingredients on Recipes

K

kebrown

I cannot see any of the ingredients on my recipes. When I preview the brewsheet they are shown. I also cannot add ingredients to any new recipes. Does any one know the fix for this problem.
 
Try the following first:
  1) Go to the C:\Program Files\BeerSmith directory
  2) Make a backup of the *.bsm files (just to be safe) in that directory
  3) Delete the files named Options.bsm as well as Options_1.bak, Options_2.bak (and the remaining Options*.bak files)
  4) Delete the file "newopts14.opt"  -- which I'm beginning to believe is the real culprit here...
  4) Restart BeerSmith

That should fix it - but if you still have problems then drop me an email.  I'm working on a patch to correct this problem and should have something to test later this week.

Cheers!

I followed the instructions and it now work as it should.

Thanks for the quick response.
 
You all may be aware of this but i'll post anyway..

i only deleted the file "newopts14.opt" and it solved the problem

cheers
 
All,
  Yes, and I have a "beta version" patch to correct this problem available now.  So far it has worked well but I want to get a few others to try it.  If you have this problem, drop me an email and I will send you a link to the patch.

Thanks,
Brad
 
I just wanted to let you know that I have this problem also now. I just sent you an email so if you want me to try out the patch I can do that for you.
 
Hi,
  Actually I just released the patch as the latest version (build 33).  You can get it from the main download page and it should fix the problem:

Cheers!

I reinstalled the program from the new download and it didn't fix my problem :(

EDIT. I did notice that i have a newopt14.opts and a newopts.opts file in the directory. If i renamed the newopts14.opts to .old it now works.
