Remember, you'll be coding the ENTIRE game system from scratch. I'd recommend working on the SW d20 one first, if that's something you can accomplish using only the editor - that way, you'll have a lot of familiarity with how Hero Lab functions before you take on a new system.

I would love to see a T20 system for HL. But the work level and load is beyond me. One of my plans for the future is to create the DragonStar system for Pathfinder. Its just a matter of getting enough time to focus on it. Too many other things going on at the moment.

Actually if you go to the Attribute tab of the data file you can add new abilities. I did it by accident once while trying to create a work around for the melee training feat in 4e.

A PF update for DragonStar would be awesome! I always felt that setting never really got a fair shake.

Every game system has a different editor - he was talking about d20/Pathfinder, not 4e.

My apologies. Missed that.

Got the authoring kit a few weeks back and started working with it. Would it be easier to start by copying, (New,Copy button) of the original 3.5 and then add SW/T data? Or just start from scratch?

Well, since I have all the time in the world now, on dissability and semi-retired, I have a good handle on HL now...
