[QUOTE=ShadowChemosh;152868]Yes you can get your .user files over to the HL iPad app. I am running my Shadow d20 house rules package which is like 30+ .user files.
What I am finding out is that you can't install .user files directly. You can install a .hl file and the app recognizes the .hl file just like it does .por files. So this means if you use any of the "Community" powered by stuff you just setup the URL again and download and away you go. To setup the URL its located in the "View Updates" section of the app when you first start in the top right corner. Can you be a bit more specific about what exactly to type in to "View Updates"? I first tried typing the full URL of d20PFSRD.com as it is shown on my browser. Then the same URL with the Saurian race file, PFRG_TOS_Saurian.user, after it and both times I got an error message on the HL app. I know this seems easy but it's very difficult for me to work out what needs to be type in. Thanks |

I was not aware of this and understand people are going to need access to the above but I am not sure how to do that without causing the update screen to list a hundred individual downloads. What you would have to do now is create a .hl file out of the .user files you want and then use like dropbox or email the .hl file from yourself. You create them from inside of HL going to "Tools->HLExport".

I created a .hl file as per ShadowChemosh's suggestion. It was a fairly large file since it included everything except the pre-generated profiles. I sent it to Dropbox and then had Dropbox send it to the iPad app....so far, so good. Went to the "View Updates" function of the app and hit "Install Updates" and found "Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Dungeoneer's handbook, 3 Classes worth of NPC's from NPC Codex; Pathfinder 68; Bug fixes" (everything after Pathfinder Roleplaying Game were notes attached to the file). I tapped this and there was a few moments when the update was downloading. After the download was done, I got this message, "The file could not be imported because: Imported files without a third-party id may not be used. Use HLExport to repackage this file with a third-party id to use its contents"
When I created this update in HLExport, it didn't allow me to to create a third-party id. Any help or ideas would be very appreciated since this is my first go with HLExport Last edited by mmartin7260; April 9th, 2013 at 04:02 PM. |

So in this case one of the options on the top menu is like View->Select all .user files. I forget the first menu but the option is defiantly "Select all .user files". Once you do that the ID, Name, and Version numbers open up and you can put in the text their.

I managed to get two of my character that use custom files to work. I had to create two .hl files for the Saurian and Dhampire file separately, one .hl for one race file. The only issue I have now is with my drow character. I tried making a .hl file for the Advance Race package file but that didn't work. I'll work on that one later. Two out of three problems fixed isn't bad for now.
