3.5 Magic Item Compendium Project

Dude you are smoking!

Done with all Clothing, except for a few questions about Item slot exceptions. I think I will move on to tools next.

Can this data set be utilized in the pathfinder license? With the backwards compatibility nature of Pathfinder its my hope to be able to have a PF/OGL setup for home games.

[Lawful_g]

Nope.

You can use the items in PF, but you would need to re-enter in all the information into HL to make it usable. The 3.5 and PF files are different because they use different features, so you cant just pull a .user file from 3.5 and drop it into the PF folder. That being said, I would love to see someone create a tranfer program so that at least items in 3.5 can be instanly converted over to Pf formats. Just 1 of the many items on my wish list.

I have actually been toying with the Idea of writing a converter for HL. I even have some of the base functions created. I was looking at a automated conversion from the community RPGexplorer data sets to HL as they are both XML based as well as d20 to PFRPG and vice-versa conversion.

That would be very cool, if you could get that done. My own experience in coding is limited to only HL's editor, or I would offer my help.

So finally got all the prep work done. Working on Tools A-D at the moment.

[Lawful_g]

Done with Tools A-L, about 1/3 of all the tools.

Currently up to R, although I skipped part of P (the Psychoactive Skins, which will be entered as part of S)... so about 80% done with Tools I would say.
