Data File Warhammer 40k 1.57

My Blood Angels lists are completely unusable under the current datafile. How do we rewind to datafile 1.57?

I don't visit the forums very often so missed this post, sorry for the late reply.

To revert to an older file you will need to delete the AB40k folder, then import the 1.57 file which should still be in your AB downloads folder (normally C:\ProgramData\Army Builder\download ), if the file has an extension of abdl=0 then rename it to have a .ab extension.

If your problem is that a file created under 1.57 no longer loads under 1.58, then that likely indicates that significant changes were made to the files to handle unit rules and options and will not load in future releases either. In this case you would need to recreate your list with the later datafile, rather than loading a saved file from an older version.

I just clicked on the import File button and it automatically opened up the folder where all the old databases were.

Easy as pie!
