Hi Everyone,
I don't know if you can do this, or if it's something simple that I'm missing... But when I create my own content, I want to have it show up in the sources menu as "Floppy Hat Games" (or whatever) instead of "User Content". Can you do this with the standard Hero Lab editor? |

No.
You need to work with RAW XML files which are text files. In this case you need to create a .1st file. HERE is a write up I did about them. Overall very easy thing to start doing in XML.

Thank you ShadowChemosh!
That was exactly what I was looking for, and very easy to implement. Is there any way to force HL to disable of 3rd party sources when my system is in use? I tried adding a source to the 1st file and making selectable = "no", and it didn't like that. As a follow up question, how are we supposed to know to make that file? I looked for information on how to do this for days and saw nothing like this. Last edited by brotherxaos; February 11th, 2017 at 08:11 AM. |

More questions!
The races that I have created always show up under "Featured Races". Can I create my own Main Category, and have my Races show under it? If yes, how? |

If this is Pathfinder than no those categories are set and you can't add others.
