New update - v3.2

[Colen]

Hello all,

The v3.2 update for the 4th edition data files is now available! Now that the D&D Compendium has full info for the Essentials classes again, the downloader once again downloads and converts them properly, so their full details should now be available.

Please note that classes from Heroes of Shadow are not yet included - I want to make sure that the current D&D Compendium format doesn't change again next month before I spend the time to add them to the converter, as so far things have been pretty changable - there's not much point in me adding them this month if they'll just go away again next month.

Enjoy!

Just a quick question:

When you say classes from Heroes of Shadow are not included, does this mean that just the new classes are missing, or that both the new classes and the updated features for the old classes are missing?

[Colen]

The old classes should have been updated with whatever is in the Compendium right now - I'm not sure what the exact changes are, so I can't verify them. Adding new classes is a much more complex process than updating old ones, so the new classes (I think there's a new Assassin variant, right?) are the ones which have been skipped for now.

I am missing things like the Fighter and Warlord.
Everyone's HP and Healing Surge Value are a Base of One, am I missing somthing?

Did you run the ddidownloader? Do you have a paid ddi subscription?

[Colen]

The Fighter and Warlord have been renamed "Weaponmaster" and "Marshal", so you'll find them under the new names.

Like cryptoknight says, you need a subscription to D&D Insider to download anything beyond the very basics for stuff (like healing surge values, etc).

Finished the ddi download, are all the PHB core classes renamed now?
The fighter/weaponmaster when I opened a "pre-may" character gives an error for at will powers (overspent) but only two are listed Cleave & wicked strike, also combat challenge is listed under daily powers (and is in red)?

[SAbel]

I believe that the combat challenge is counting as a at-will but is listing under daily powers.

HL runs a conversion for the DDI material to load in the program but you need to have access to the DDI information to obtain the current material. With out the DDI you have 4e but no content.
