D&D 5e Community Pack

That's a question you should ask of LW. Not something the community would add in. I would challenge that creating races in the editor is actually quite simply. If you want to learn how to make one load up the editor and open up one of the Community Files that contains 'race' in the name for plenty of examples.

All of these years of using Hero Lab I have never actually played with the Editor feature. I had totally forgotten it was there (as besides 5E) HL pretty much has what I need out of the gate for the systems I play besides 5E. However, based on your suggestion I looked at the editor and started playing around with it. This may work. Thank you for the suggestion.

Race is one of those things that largely doesn't require scripting. It's a good place to learn.

Classes... that's a different beast altogether.

Are these in yet? I see where the other 3 are greyed out, but I'm not seeing any of the above updates.

[daplunk]

Your right, looks like 2 of the adjustments have dropped off the release. Will look into this. In the mean-time I have updated the release notes.

[jbearwillis]

I just noticed that when you pick Rogue and then pick the background Spy, Thieve's Tools show up twice in Hero lab and on the character sheet. Also there is a rule that if a class and background give the same skill, proficiency, etc. That you are able to pick a different one of the same trait. Will that ever be implemented?

[daplunk]

I've raised that with LW and yes it's something they are working to do.

[Mergon]

As expected, the Community Pack UA - Artificer conflicts with my own. Deleting COM_5ePack_UA - Artificer.user fixed it for me. Other than that everything seems to be working fine so far. Good work all.

[HippyCraig]

your mention of removing "Removed support for 5th Edition Feats" is this just related to Total Party Kill Games?
