Catalogue File Issues

Thanks to the vigilance of some helpful users, several bugs have been found in some of the catalogue files. As I need to fix catalogue errors outside of releases of BattleScribe itself, I will be pulling the catalogue files out of the main download. This will allow me to release updates to them as needed.

Another problem with the catalogue files is that since they can contain the intellectual property of various companies, I am unable to provide them for download on a site that has any reference to money - even donations. In effect I cannot be seen to be profiting from another company's intellectual property in any way. For this reason I will be moving data file downloads to their own site.
