The message is saying that two custom classes in the module, iw.CounterDetailViewer and wga.Refresher, are using outdated functions in Vassal.

The first question to address is: Are you actually using iw.CounterDetailViewer and wga.Refresher in your module?

I picked up the module out of the library… really just an update to remove a few annoyances

I’m not sure what those are, but they sound extraneous

Can you post a link to the module page and I will sort that out for you and upload a new version of the module without the custom code.

I have uploaded a new version to the Wiki.

I had to remove the custom Mouse-over counter viewer, you will need to add a standard version back in.

Leave it with you.
