I’m thrilled to announce that Reloading Studio is alive and well and has gone through some significant changes to better serve its users. As some of you may have guessed\u2026 To keep up with my own commitment to innovation and to provide a better user experience, Reloading Studio is being migrated to an online subscription application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I understand that this is not what some of you wanted to hear, but the current model wasn’t working. I made this (very hard) decision after careful consideration and for a few reasons. I discuss it in this post<\/a> (Subscription WTF)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All existing users have been imported into the the software and all you have to do is reset your password<\/a> from the Reloading Studio login form<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n An email has been sent to all paid users. It’s a quick update referencing this article. Just in case you didn’t get it, I suggest checking your junk or spam folders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p><\/div>Where is my invite?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Where is everything at?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am currently onboarding existing Reloading Studio desktop users, so general registrations are disabled for a few weeks (for an early invite feel free to get in touch directly<\/a>). I am expecting to open general registrations in the first week August-2023.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If you are a paid desktop app user; or you were sent an individual invite, than you already have an account. All existing users have been imported to Reloading Studio (web). All you have to do is reset your password<\/a> from the Reloading Studio login form<\/a> using your original activation email address. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Absolutely. I have been using it for a while, prior to onboarding users. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
If you get value out of this, then it’s no more than buying me a thank you cup of (cheapest) coffee once a month. Details can be found on the main website<\/a> page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
I plan to stop supporting the desktop version of Reloading Studio sometime in 2024. this means troubleshooting, maintenance, new operating system version support, etc. However, I will try my best to support any ‘re-activation’ (registration) issues for longer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Reloading Studio (web) look and feels similar and you (the desktop user) will instinctively know what to do. However, under the hood it has a completely new architecture and data model. There is no direct migration path. It’s a bad situation that I am trying to remedy, but it’s something that had to be done for future maintenance. For existing user, if your data volume is excessive – please let me know. I can take a look at your database (backup) and see what I could automate to make the transition a lot smoother. This will likely include components and firearms. However, recipe data model is very different and will need to be re-entered manually. If you don’t have a lot of data to work with, then I wholeheartedly encourage you to do this manually to get some hands-on experience with the new application, otherwise let me know<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nWhat’s next?<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Thank You!<\/h3>
