OK if you have a setting to add post it here.

So far we got 12 official setting, 11 unofficial settings, and 3 inactive settings, 23 total settings that you can get now. With 9 more on the way!

I 2nd the vote for stickying as a replacement for the Where You Can Find User Greated Files for Certain Settings thread.

Dartnet, you may also want to include a note in the first post that for unofficial data files folks should just PM the data file author listed to get a copy.

Updated a bit and add the fact I finished my TORG fan file. :)

You are the man, dartnet, I loved Torg back in the day and was going to start to try and do the savage worlds one, but you already did it. Way to go.

Agents of Oblivion updated!

I would add that for some of the "Coming Soon" ones, at least for the ones I've done, you can also send me a PM to get the unofficial, unreviewed versions of those files. Certainly there will be some updates between the ones I have and the officially released ones (because there is always something I've missed or could improve) but at least you can get any of my files before then if anyone really needs them.

OK added a list of settings that are not getting HL love at the moment. If you have done a Data File for one of them or are working on one post it and I will add you to the list.

LETS MAKE 2014 A SAVAGE YEAR FOR HERO LAB!

Had a request for a new The Day After Ragnarok file, added it to the coming soon list.

My group has been playing Pathfinder and I have been busy with school as it is, but I still really like Savage Worlds. If I run a game it is my system of choice. A while back I had worked on some data files, only to have my youngest literally kill my computer (motherboard, hard drive, RAM, and probably CPU). After that I was kind of disheartened. Still, I WANT to work on something, or at least contribute some of the work. Granted another semester just started, but I can do something.

Has anyone started work on the new Accursed setting? I missed that Kickstarter. Does anyone plan to do anything for Achtung Cthulu? I recall that hero lab was part of the Kickstarter for Interface Zero 2.

Endtransmission is working on an Achtung! Cthulhu file, but I don't know for sure if he was planning to make if available or if it was just his personal use, so you could try asking him about that. I have Accursed but hadn't made any plans to work on it yet. The only thing I'm working on at the moment is to update Necropolis to Necropolis 2350 and then maybe contact Triple Ace Games to see if I can get them to work it out with Lone Wolf for making it available.

As for Interface Zero 2.0 I think dartnet may be working on that one for unofficial release. I'm not sure if that was related to the Kickstarter goal or not, though.

On my list to do unless some one else starts if before me.

Interface Zero 2.0 is on hold for me until I know if there is an official data file on the way.

To do Interface Zero officially would take some fairly extensive modifications to Hero Lab, on the par of the magic item system in the Fantasy Companion. (Believe me, it was a LOT of work) Because of their basically open-ended cyberwear design system, it's really hard to duplicate properly. So, no official release is currently planned as far as I know.

According to their Kickstarter one of their bullet points is "Interface Zero support through Hero Labs", so apparently they have promised it, I just don't know who they might have to take care of it. That does sound pretty in-depth, so I wonder if they realize what they've gotten themselves into on that one! It's only just had public release this week so they are probably still working their way through all of the stuff they've promised and maybe they haven't gotten with Lone Wolf about it yet.

Updated the list.

Is there an ETA on the Rippers Companion?

April/May at the latest. Got a few data files that I want to finish first.

Big series of updates.

Encounter Builder?
 

Is anyone working on adding the creatures for any of the settings to setting files?

Dartnet: It might help if you include in your update notifications what it was that was updated. I forget too easily what was there before and what's been updated since. :/

Nostromos: Which files are missing creatures? All of the ones I've done should have them.

I'm looking for them in the Hellfrost one. I may have an older file that doesn't have the creatures in it though. I also know CapedCrusader is pretty busy so he may not have gotten them added in yet.

Ah, yeah, that's one of of CapedCrusader's and he is pretty busy right now, that's for sure. You can try to PM him for his latest copy, but I'm pretty sure I have the latest and I don't see any creatures in that one, either.

Kinda what i figured. I got one from him back in December/January I think so its probably the most updated. Might try to get some creatures added into it when I have the time (when I'm not adding campaign things into Realm Works and making maps).

Quick question for you though, when you've added them for your settings files, have you created custom creature types or just use the generics and tweak them? IE...dragon..do you create one for each type or just use dragon and somehow tweak it to different stats?

Depends on if there is something like what I need to add. So when doing Hydras for Weird Wars Rome, for example, I probably used a Hydra or Dragon or something just to give me something to work from. Other things I create from scratch, but I think most of the time I copy something, even if it's the monster I just created, just because I find it easier to work from a template, so to speak. It does mean I have to make sure and clean up the things I don't change, though.

Please forgive a newbie to this forum with a question. I see that the Savage Worlds license is available for 20 bucks, and that the three separate companions are also available either alone or as a pack. What I don't understand is how I get the data to use for all the settings listed in this first post. Do these come with the basic Savage Worlds package, or are they all separate purchases. If so, where do I find them to purchase?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Tim

All of the settings in that post, except for the Companions, are available for free. The "Official" ones show up in the updater for Hero Lab and while you could technically download them without purchasing Savage Worlds they won't really work without having that. The "Unofficial" and "Fan Conversion" ones are available by sending a PM to the listed data author.

*Eagerly awaits the RC files, rubbing her hands together greedily...* :D

Quick update. Accursed is done! Just sent it off the the creators to see if they want it as ab official setting or not. Rippers is 90% done and should be out some time in May.

Awesome, thanks!

Any news on Necessary Evil? Sorry if asked before.

I could give you NE, but it doesn't have much in it. Mostly you'd need the Super Powers Companion and just use the Super Powers from there, my data file (it's still in review) just adds a few NE specific things like some of the equipment and such. PM me if you'd like a copy of the "unofficial" version, though.

I hate to be a bother, but is there any update on the Rippers Companion stuff?

Taking a bit longer than expected. Almost done.

Thanks!

Ultimate Characters Guide
 

Are there any plans to add Mystical Throne Entertainment's Ultimate Characters Guide for Savage Worlds to Hero Lab?

Nevermind- Zarlor answered this elsewhere. I'll make a stab at doing the Edges and Hindrances from it myself.

FYI, I'll be working on East Texas University which recently finished its Kickstarter. It was originally a setting strictly by 12toMidnight but Pinnacle has, I believe, taken over as primary publisher and I've confirmed with Shane that this will fall under their purview for purposes of being able to publish the Hero Lab data file as an official Savage Setting. That also means it will need to go under the review process, however, and with both Super Powers Companion 2 and Sci-Fi Companion in the works it may be a while before it can get through all of that. I'll let folks know when I'm done, as usual, so you can at least get and unofficial, unreviewed copy early if you like.

Good to know. I am one of the many backers of ETU. :)

If we have reviews waiting, I should do those before I finish the Companion work. I've lost track, Lenny, do you have any reviews awaiting action, or have I cleared all of those?

The only ones I have left submitted for review are Evernight and Necessary Evil. The latter assumes the use of the Super Powers Companion and assumes the SPC Powers are the corrected version of those powers over the ones in the NE book. So it should be a fairly quick review because there isn't much in it. Plus it's asked for more often than Evernight is, from what I've seen, That's it for now, though. I'll be working on East Texas University but that will be at least a few weeks away and shouldn't really be released until Pinnacle offers the public release for sale anyway, I don't think.
