In Oriental Adventures and Rokugan Campaing Setting:
Some material, specially Class Abilities, refer to Katana, while others, mainly Requirements, refer to Bastard Sword. They should be interchangeable, but for some reason they are not, so the HL do not recognize, lets say, a Crane Variant Samurai that took Weapon Focus (Katana) as having the Weapon Focus Feat requirement for the Iaijutsu Master PrC, both of the same source. |

Everything from OA and Rokugan, when it says "katana" is programmed as bastard sword. If your weapon focus pick is a katana, it won't register as correct.
Every source says they are essentially the same thing so I just kept it simple |

I thought at first that the problem was more serious, but that means it is actually more of a correction to be done to the Variant Samurai. To me the Katana should be excluded from the HL weapon's list altogether, though I'm not even sure if it is a community content or an original content, so much time have passed without me disabling community content in any way.

Binder uses EBL most as Casters use ECL. So the sum of Binder levels plus bonus to EBL from Binder PrCs gives your EBL. The distinction is that they won't use Vestige Level, their equivalent of Spell Level, more or less, to define DCs. Instead, they use 10 + Cha Mod + 1/2 EBL. Also, they make a Binding Check with 1d20 + Cha Mod + EBL. At the Special tab on HL, there is an entry called Binding that should inform three things: EBL, Binding Check and DC. For a character with Binder 10 and Cha 14, it should read like EBL = 10, Binding Check 1d20 + 12, DC 17. Currently, though, the system is giving for the same character something like EBL = 5, Binding Check 1d20 + 7, DC 17. For DC it is actually right, but the other numbers are halving EBL when they shouldn't. Quote:
On another regard, is there any way of implementing epic items in the Epic Level Handbook Source? |

EDIT: Yep, is a text issue, not a coding issue. I'm doing adjustments to OA and Rokugan in preparation for Creatures of Rokugan so I'll handle this one and send you the clarified file. Monteparnas, just ignore where it says katana for now. You should just be able to pick "sword, bastard" on the weapon focus feat that shows up. Quote:

Next issue is old, but I forgot to tell it earlier. The Chahar-Aina item isn't working, at least not with Chain Shirt. I can bypass this with Adjustments to AC for now.

Another one before I go to work: the feat Craft Tsangusuri have Crane Clan as requisite, but is coded with Unicorn Clan as requisite.
Not that it actually makes a huge difference, it is mostly a rendition of Craft Talisman with more setting lore in the description and the clan requisite, and Craft Talisman is essentially Rokugan-themed Brew Potion. |

So, it looks like the only thing to watch out for is a couple of minor changes to the Rokugan Campaign Setting file, although I did make some changes to the Magic of Rokugan file during integration so you'll want to pick that up as well. Last edited by Sendric; February 8th, 2019 at 03:58 AM. |

The Memento Magicas of the source Races of the Dragon are misspelled. They are being spelled as mOmento Magica and the numbers are 1st to 9st.
I already installed the new release, by the way. |
