D&D 5e Community Pack

Well-known member
This is the main information thread for the community add-ons called "Packs". Each Pack is downloaded and installed just like the official 5e SRD game from inside of Hero Lab. It just requires a one time setup to use and after that you will be auto-notified when updates are released.

See Hero Lab in action here: Hero Lab - D&D 5e Player Tour

Setup Instructions
Please see THIS pdf document for detailed install instructions. After setting up the update URL restart Hero Lab and download the Pack or Packs you need/want.

BLOG: How To Install 5e Community Pack
VIDEO: Hero Lab - How To Install And Configure The D&D 5e Community Pack

The updates URL is:
Code: 
http://www.shadowsoftware.net/herolab/5e/updates.xml

What D&D 5e Community "Packs" are available?
5e Community Pack – Contains the following:
  • PHB Backgrounds - Replacement backgrounds missing from the SRD release
  • PHB Class Options - Replacement Class options missing from the SRD release
  • PHB Feats - Replacement feats missing from the SRD release
  • SCAG Things - Bladesinging options for Wizards. 4 new spells.
  • ROT Things - 38 spells, 3 items.
  • Wiki Deities - 85 deities

  • Hoard of the Dragon Queen (10 Backgrounds, 1 spell, 4 magic items)
  • Rise of Tiamat (1 spell, 11 items)

Limitations of the Community Packs
The caveat with the Community Pack is that portions of descriptive text are often paraphrased (and sometimes omitted) to ensure the data files are legally sound. All the mechanics are fully implemented, so everything behaves the way you expect for your character, and you can always refer to the rule-books for the official language used.

Report Issue / Request Feature
Always confirm that the issue is related to the Community Pack prior to logging a new issue. 'Things' created by the Community Pack will always have '5C' in the name. 'Things' without this flag are created by Lone Wolf or other users and should be reported through their individual processes.
Click HERE to report a new issue or request a new enhancement within the Community Pack.
Click HERE to see the official Hero Labs support information.

To check the name of a 'thing'.
1. Develop > Enable Data File Debugging
2. Right click on the broken 'thing'.
3. Check the Copy Unique ID option. If it includes 5C it is community content. If it does not then it is official content or other user content.

Can you help?
We are always open to people who can contribute to the project. If you have missing source books you would like to add, flavor text to contribute or even want to assist in stamping out some of the bugs. Message me here or contact us by GitHub to assist as a Contributor. We are currently seeking replacement text for all 'things' where a <placeholder> has been used. In order to replace <placeholder> text we will need descriptions that are at least 20% different from the original source material.

If you have any such descriptions or are able to assist please contact us via the Report Issue option.

FAQs for Community D&D 5e Pack:

1) How do I remove a Community Package
A: On Windows/Mac start Hero Lab and go to Tools->Manage Third Party Updates will allow you to remove a Pack or see what files where installed.

2) How to deal with your house rules and D&D 5e Community Packs?
A: You should treat the community data set files in the same way you would official Hero Lab files. This means you should NOT make changes directly to the .user files as those changes will be lost when you update to the next version. Instead you should create a new uniquely named .user file that does a Replaces Thing ID if you need to put in your own house rules over these community data sets.

3) Where and HOW do I get these new Packs?
A: See THIS post for full details. But the new Packs are downloaded from inside of HL and all start with the wording "5e XXXXX Pack". Where XXXX is the name of the specific pack.

4) I am getting an error message when I start Hero Lab. How do I post the error to the forums to get help?
A: By right mouse clicking on an error message you can select "Copy". Then you can easily post the message into your post. Doing this will 100% speed up the chance of getting an answer that will actually help you.

5) How do I report an issue for one of the Community Packs or something you downloaded from d20pfsrd?
A: You can report it to the GitHub repository for this project using THIS LINK.

6) How do a do a "Fresh/new" install of the community Packs?
A: To do a "fresh" install on Windows, Mac or iPad is to delete all the old community packages. Start Hero Lab and on Windows/Mac go to "Tools->Manage Third Party Updates" and delete all the community Packages (ie 5e Community Pack). Be sure to also delete any of the new Packs you installed also. Restart Hero Lab and download just the Pack or Packs you plan to actually use. On the iPad you can LEFT swipe across the addon's name and it will bring up the Delete button. Delete all the community ones and download/install just the Pack/Packs you need.

7) I am getting an error that is causing HL to not load any addons. What can I try?
A: One option to try is to download the Pack again. Let it overwrite the download and install again. This "some" times works and does not take long to try. If still getting an error please RIGHT click on the error window and PASTE the error message into this thread.

8) I am getting an error how can I paste it into this thread?
A: If you are getting a error window you can always RIGHT mouse click and select COPY to copy all the errors. Then you can past them into an post to help others diagnose what is wrong.

9) I get errors when opening my character that talk about sources (ie "Critical information not found in the data files: Source "Broken Chains")
A: So these files use to exist in the Community Player Pack but were removed through the development of the pack. To clean this up is pretty easy. Just open your character again and press OK through the message and go to "Portfolio->Strip Missing Sources". Save your character and you are good to go.

10) Is there an order to loading the new Packs?
A: No.

11) What are all the Placeholders?
A: While we are able to reproduce the mechanics of the missing content we are still unable to release content that is copyrighted. Therefore alot of fluffy text has been left out and replaced with a Placeholder. Eventually we would like to have new descriptions for everything to explain what the 'thing' is designed to do.
A: If anyone has the time we are interested in obtaining the text necessary to update all of the placeholders. The text would need to changed from the original sources however (min 80% diff). We will then update the placeholders in the community pack removing the need for Placeholders completely.

12) It says 'Alpha' or 'Beta' next to the option I want to use, what does that mean?
A: The Community pack is a consolidated effort by quite a few people working together for the greater good. We are however not wizards which means we add content as quickly as we can working with the few hours we have in between our real jobs. For this reason we prefer to release content as soon as its functional. There are however varied levels of functional. The tags below will help you to understand what level of functionality exists with the selections you are using.

  • <Just the selection name> - This is content that contains all 'options' and scripting. You will still come across <Placeholders> where paraphrased text has not yet been provided.
  • <Selection Name> - Beta - This is content that has had all of the 'options' input into the tool however some scripting is still outstanding.
  • <Selection Name> - Alpha - This is content that is currently having the 'options' entered into the tool. While you may find workable options here there will be lots of broken options and scripting will be missing.

Thanks that appears to be a relic of the previous way we tried to implement this. Has fixed and will add to the next patch.
 
The download packs are not showing up on the updates page after setting up the url you have listed above on my PC. But it worked fine I believe on my iPad.
 
Did you restart HL? Otherwise it will not appear. Should look like this.

2016-02-21%2012_38_56-Microsoft%20Edge_zpsmhulu9we.png
 
The data files could not be loaded due to errors. Hero Lab will now attempt to load them in recovery mode. Once loaded, you can access the editor as normal to correct any errors.

The following errors occurred:

File: non-srdstuff.user (line 10) - Thing - Invalid unique id 'bckWIL?' for attribute 'id'
Click to expand...
Getting this from a clean 5e install with community pack applied.

EDIT: Well that was certainly odd. I deleted all of the 5e files, re-downloaded, and then added the community files again, and it worked fine the second time around.

You are not using a clean install by the looks of it. This is evident by the file name and naming convention of the thing that is reporting the error. Everything we have created will have a 5C in the thing name.

Check your 5e folder for a file names non-srdstuff.user and move it or rename it. Then try load the pack again.
 
OK got it to work, I only see the Acolyte background have the other ones not in yet? But from what I can see great job folks.
 
If you only see Acolyte then you didn't load the Community Pack correctly. I see all PH Backgrounds.

However, there is an error on the background page.
If you select Outlander, or any other one with an Origin, if you select your Personality Traits, and your Ideal, Bond and Flaw in that order, Origin falls off the bottom of the page and you can't add it, until you delete some of the other background things,so it frees up space. Using 1366x768 resolution.
 
Where on my PC do these files actually go when I go into the Hero Lab folder in my C:/Program (x86)/Hero Lab I cannot find anything that says 5th edition what am I missing?

EDIT:
On further checking this is doing the same on my iPad as well on both I performed a cut and paste on the URL posted earlier in this thread, and it indicates that everything is downloaded. I just cannot find the actual files on my PC and I am not even going to try on my iPad. For further info I am running windows 10. I am so confused at this point, as to where to actually look.

EDIT: I got it to work good on my iPad but is there a way to set the new stuff to appear on already created characters on the PC?
Thank you for bearing with me.
