Hello,
is there a way to save more than one set of "Hero Settings"? Is there also a way to update "Hero Settings" for an entire Portfolio? Thanks for your help. |

I have been trying to work this out as well. I am using the Auto Bonus rules from Unchained but want them to apply to PC's only. It would be very useful if I could set this in the menus somewhere.

The only way I have found to do this with out coping the game system is to set up template portfolio's. I just setup the settings and then save the portfolio with those settings and name it as player characters or Player only and one that says NPC's only or something along those lines. Then all I do is open that portfolio and then save the portfolio as my characters name and the template stays clean for next use. I don't know if there is a better way but it does work pretty well. Hope this helps a little.

I have a created a hero with the settings that my GM wants for his "house rules". Then whenever I start a new PC, I copy that empty one to a new portfolio and work from there. I don't know of a way to modify a bunch of portfolios from within HL, but I'm pretty new to HL overall. It would be pretty easy to do from the standpoint of editing the XML directly assuming you had access to a tool like sed, Python, or Perl. (Otherwise, you could use an XSLT, but that's a chore.) |

In the Tools menu, you can use "Duplicate Game System" to create a copy of Pathfinder. Each copy can have different default settings, and can have different sets of added-on files installed.

To be precise, they're .zip archives with .xml files inside that. |

If you could set a default by portfolio or have different named sets it would be a lot easier. |
