Question for CaskBill

[WolfpackFan]

Any idea when you might have the AKV points in DVC-Planner?

Thanks.

 

[Caskbill]

I've started doing some of the programming, based on the information greenban posted, but it's going to take awhile due to the complex nature of the AKV's room categories. More equivalent to adding 4 resorts, not adding just one...

In any case, it won't be until after I've seen an 'official' DVC copy of the point chart, to make sure all the numbers are 100% correct. (No offense Tony.... )

Thanks for asking.

Caskbill,

Will we be able to update our current DVC Planner programs or will we have to download a fresh program and delete previous?

I love the planner!!! I love Caskbill!! Mine however, has the dates on the calendar backwards! It reads from right to left. I have downloaded and reinstalled it several times. It always does this.

You will need to uninstall the current version, then install the new version when it is ready.

The uninstall will not remove any saved vacation plans or contract information. When you install the new version you will be able to read your old saved plans.

Some other settings about how things are displayed will go back to their default settings.

I've been working on it quite a bit. Not just adding AKV but also changing the point tables from reading a table to using an algorithm as I use for DVC-Chart and DVC-Tracker. This will enable making plans all the way to 2057.

I'm also trying to make it more adaptable for future expansions, so if things like a DL resort, or CR do become DVC resorts, I'll be able to add them more quickly.

The next release will be v2.0 and I expect will be ready in a couple of weeks.

...enable making plans all the way to 2057...

I can't wait. By the way, how much do you think the special assessment will be to add cryogenic beds.
