Hi! I'm new to HL but really enthusiastic about its possibilities, and trying to understand the intricacies of the Editor...
Anyways... I am creating a simple house rule user file to get my feet wet, but have encountered a problem: I created an alt Toughness feat (that grants 3 hp at level 1 + 1 hp/lvl thereafter) and used Replace Unique ID to replace the original feat. When I load HL, the thing works perfectly if my house rule source file is selected, but if not, the original Toughness feat isn't available, as it has been replaced by a non-active source. Any way to work around this, and keep the original available if the house rule source is not selected? Thanks! |

I really have to contain my enthusiasm and go through all the Tutorials before getting down to work...
The *Preclude tab allows me to do just what I want, and very very simply! EDIT: If I follow the logic, however, it leads me to think that any monster with one of the feats I modified would not have it anymore, as the thing I precluded is not available anymore, and the house-ruled replacement version is an entirely different thing with a different unique ID. Back to the drawing board! Last edited by Lord Magus; January 27th, 2011 at 06:24 AM. |

Here's what I did. I duplicated the game system and gave it my house ruled game's name. I replaced all the things in that system and kept the original d20 system intact. Whenever I want to create things for my house ruled system, I select that house ruled d20 system on start up, and when I just want to do regular d20 without the house rules, I can just select the regular d20 rules on startup. I'm finding more and more there is always a way to do something, it just might take a workaround to get to it, but it can be done.
