I was wondering how I could go about getting hero lab to add a new tab.
To finish out my dark sun endeavors I am going to need to add Psionics into Hero Lab and I'd like to be able to have a Psionics tab pop up like it does for spells for the classes that have access to Psionic powers. |

Users cannot add tabs to the Pathfinder files.

Look around this forum for the Psionics Unleashed threads - those may be useful, in terms of how others have implemented psionics within Pathfinder.

I have done that before, even found some unfinished Psionics Unleashed data files, and I am going to attempt finishing them. I still have some questions.
1. Should I use a Tracker for Psionic Power Points? 2. How would I go about making a non psionic character tagged as psionic? The Wild Talent feat gives a character 2 psionic power points and makes the character psionic, and hence able to take psionic feats, but I need a way to make the system register that a character is psionic for that purpose. |

1 - Yes
2 - First create a custom tag. Then have the feat apply that custom tag to the hero to mark him as psionic. perform hero.assign[Custom.Psionic] Anything that relies on a Psionic hero can search for that tag. |

ok that is simple enough. I apologize for all the questions i have been asking, and thank all of you for taking time to help me out. I really appreciate it. As do my players. This datafile I have been working on has made this campaign a lot of fun so far.

Raven, I'm guessing you've got a similar screenid over on Dreamscarred Press' forums?
I just sent you a note over there, but will put it here too. The Psionics Unleashed dataset is fairly complete from the one on May 5th. If you've got those, it'd be a big help if you could get the powers done up as spells. That's a big piece of the missing functionality with it. Let me know if you want to partner on this and I'll get you my latest files. TC |

First off, Dear Gods of Athas He Lives! *Cheers echo through the colliseum*
Second off, Hell yes I want to partner up on it. I want to get this datafile done. I need the data for my players in Dark Sun. |

I finally got a little spare time on my hands, wondering if anybody has any files to share for Psionics Unleashed? Any remaining work that you need help with? I'd be glad to help, and would love to see a finished Psionics dataset in HL Pathfinder.
