Yes the thread, though old, was still helpful.
I'm currently working through about 5 things simultaneously (my left brained engineering mentality cant help but multi-task at times so I hop around abit)
The Template is about 70% complete. Most of what remains are some ambiguous things inherent to the D20 3.5 ruleset.
For example:
the damage reduction described on p186 of the BoED shows
4-7 HD having a 5/magic reduction but the template can't be applied till 6th lvl? hummm IT further adds to 8-11HD 5/evil and again 12+HD 10/evil.
My interpretation is going to be (and may prove incorrect)
The 5/magic reduction gained at 6th level (or 6HD) will remain and not increase, unlike the 5/evil reduction received at 8HD (8th level) where it will then increase to 10/evil. So the end result at level 12 and beyond would be 5/magic & 10/evil. And to top it, IF the character already has
Damage Reduction I need to figure out how HL manages that.
Holy Touch will have to be added, but not within HL (that I can tell) since it is not a constant adjustment but dependent on what the opponent is.
I am going to attempt to put the
Protective Aura pieces in the Adjust Tab as check boxes, but since there is a cast equal to level I have to see how to manipulate that. IF successful I might be able to also put Holy touch there as well.
In reverse order,
The Abilities Mod is complete
The Tongues (SU) is complete
The Resistances are complete
The Keen Vision is complete
The immunities are complete
The Fast Heal is mostly complete, but I feel there is a need to put some sort of Eval Script to look for other instances, and not sure how to go about that.
Lastly,
the pre-qualifiers and how to manage them? IMC I decide what templates come available via the startup checkboxes utilizing user files. But in this case it may be more to Shadow's liking that there are "gates" that confirm those qualifications and display as validation errors if they do not. I am pretty weak in that part of the script writing (since I manage it outside of the HL world).
Things that would fall into this category would be:
• Must be of good alignment >
This is fairly easy to do
• Must have at least three exalted feats >
No clue how to do since there seems no apparent detail that defines "exalted feats" separate from the other feats
• Must never have lost the benefit of exalted feats or class abilities because of committing an evil act, even if the character properly atoned >
This is DM domain determined
• Must at all times behave in a way the DM considers to be exemplary of the exalted path described in this book>
This is DM domain determined
• Must be at least 6th level>
I have a pretty good Idea on how this part works
• Must make an extraordinary sacrifice (not necessarily his or her life) for the good of another.>
This is DM domain determined
(taken from BoED p29)
So if I had to guess on a timeline to complete... next week possibly IF the unknowns are not beyond my learning curve.
