Blew off the dust on my Hero Lab program to start doing some lite gaming. Got right into the groove of things, built a few creatures of CR 1 or less, but hit a wall that frustrates my perfectionist nature; Small Fiendish Vipers.
Just adding the Special "Fiendish" (xGraftFien) seemed to not give correct Ability scores and other problems. To start, I just opened a Copy of the Fiendish Dire Rate, and a copy of the Small Viper, and worked through giving my new creature the Fiendish abilities. Hit a snag with Smite Good, however. I found three Smite Goods in the Specials tab; Smite Good A (xFieSmite) has checked in Show Specials/Charges Lists with description "Adds your HD to your damage roll (maximum +20) when used against a good foe." This Special Ability does little but the description. Next is Smite Good B (xFieSmite2) doesn't have Shoe Specials/Charge Lists checked and has description "Adds your HD to your damage roll (maximum +20) when used against a good foe." However...it also has some Eval Scripts: Phase: First Priority: 100 perform hero.assign[User.Smite] perform hero.assign[User.SmiteGood] hero.child[xSmiteGood].field[hTotal].value += 1 Phase:Final Phase Priority:9900 var dam as number dam = minimum(herofield[tHitDice].value, 20) hero.child[xSmiteGood].field[Value].value = maximum(hero.child[xSmiteGood].field[Value].value, dam) Next, it contains a Bootstrap of Smite Good C (xSmiteGood), this is what has the Show Charges/Specials List boxes ticked and contains this Eval Scripting... Phase:Final Phase Priority:10500 call CalcValue field[xSumm].text = "" & field[hTotal].value & "/day, smite good foe for +" & hero.child[aCHA].field[aModBonus].value & " to hit and +" & field[Value].value & " dam." So..I tried using a combination of the two Eval Scripted "Smite Goods," and in the case of the xSmiteGood I deleted part of the eval scripting "& hero.child[aCHA].field[aModBonus].value & " to hit and +" " Got to the end of this..and didn't seem to work at all. I'd like to make a Smite Evil that takes into account the amount of damage based on number of Hit Dice. What of this scripting should I keep or toss to make a fresh Smite Good I can use later for other Fiendish creatures? |

In the same table as the classes, scroll down until you find the templates. The fiendish template should be among them.

Thanks for the reply
Template did the trick, though it should be noted the used Smite Good seems to describe a different version from some class, and not the Monster Manual version. Have a follow up question: Adding a Stock Undead of a Human Zombie Warrior works perfectly, however, when adding a Human Zombie Commoner, an error is displayed that it requires inputting Hit Points, spending skill points, and seemingly is unfinished. Is there a reason for this? Edit: Sorry, turns out the "Human Zombie Warrior" was in fact "Human Skeleton Warrior." I suppose Zombies just present a unique problem to the program, hence the errors. It seems the program wants me to still pick a Feat, and although 13 HP are placed in the box, the program is not recognizing it and not showing any 0/0 HP.
