I have two questions neither are related to the other. Maybe somebody can help me

[koesherbacon]

The first is very straightforward:

In the "Configure Your Hero" window there's an option under Optional Rules which can be toggled on or off. The description says, "Replace Item Creation Feats."

There's no tooltip, so I'm at a loss trying to figure out what it does. If someone can enlighten me, it'd be turbo amazing! (Bonus if you get that reference )

================================================== ============

My second question is probably much more complex.

In my Pathfinder game, I'm allowing my players to use bits and pieces from DND 3.5 books as long as they clear it with me first. After all, Pathfinder and 3.5 can be used together as stated in the PF Core Rules.

Here's what I'd like to see made available.

A section where you can make your own custom Prestige Class by entering in all the information from the book you're currently using.

I think, in a way, it would be similar to the Monster Builders we have, but I could be way off base.

If anyone knows of a way to do this, or even better, help me create a custom file for the Community Repository my players and I would be super jazzed.

================================================== ============

Well, I hope you guys can help answer some of these questions! The first one should be easy, the second one might take more time. But like I said, if somebody can help me make it, I'd gladly share it with the Community Repository!

Thanks very much!

Prestige classes can be made in the editor. It's quite a hard learning process but satisfying once achieved!

Is there a tutorial for using the editor?

[bodrin]

Only a few small ones located in the Tools, Editor, Help option.
It starts with a simple tutorial working to a complex class if I recall correctly.

This forum is very helpful with any questions you may need regarding scripts, terminology and providing examples when necessary.

However prestige classes are one of the harder things to input and the editor is quite an unforgiving master.

Question#2 in the FAQ has a list of all the places with help. Its also worth reading the "Glossary of Terms" to get started with so you have an easier time understanding the terminology on the forums and in help.

My advice is to start with just inputting the class as Text and getting the Class Specials to show up at the right levels. Then I would worry about trying to script all the different abilities to actually fully work.

[drakahn99]

building a class is a many step process, start with reading the examples, watch shadow's videos and then start small creating a couple feats, and things before beginning on the class.

the first question. replace item creation feat changes it so wizards don't get scribe scroll instead they get spell focus.
BTW what class are you looking for? the work may already be done or someone may be working on it.

Oh, I'm not particularly looking for any PrC at the moment. I was just wondering how difficult it would be to add if, say, my wife decided she wanted to try a PrC from a book that isn't listed there.

She's brand new to PF and DND and loves reading through all the material in order to find new and interesting things she can add to her character.

God help me if Lunka, her Dwarf Bard, ever dies...
