Well, Hello all! I wanted to inform you that there is an ETA on the release of FR, DL Dark Sun and Even some 3.5 Convert content. With a great deal of luck it should be released in about two months. Baring any huge issues, I hope to have this released at that time. Anyone who wishes to request content the deadline is at the End of APRIL. To those of you who have already requested content, thank you. To those that have donated content to me, Thank you even more, I may get in touch with you to help me make sure this release works properly before it is released (if you would like to help more).
To some of my colleagues, I may be asking for some minor assistance on some small matters of coding and proofing. Specifically, advice on creating the Dragonrider class which has elements that are beyond my abilities to code and universal rules to Conjuration (Healing) spells from Arcane Casters.
I have updated the list of whats being worked on and what has been completed please see below.
Dungeons & Dragons Converted Material
The Dungeons & Dragons Conversion.user is now REQUIRED for all other sources. This contains universal abilities for all systems. All systems now require the Hero Labs Community Content. Its just easiest to say that it requires that than saying which specific content requires what. As a result, whatever is required by the community content is now also required for mine. If you use any Campaign system from 3.5 this must be checked.
Universal Races: This release changes the way the common races are handled. As of this update, Humans and Half-Elves use this new system. I have hidden all of custom Human and Half-Elf races that were unique to each setting, such as faerun or dragonlance or athas. They all now simply use the normal "Race.rHuman" or "Race.rHalfElf" this makes it easier to use crossover systems such as Ravenloft as Ethnicities and Heritages are now universal. It also removes the burden of editing the core races if an update is done by paizo. In the future other races will be added to this, complete with their unique abilities for each subrace. For example, if you have an Elf, you would chose what kind of elf though the heritage or ethnicity. Same thing goes for the other races and sub-races. At this time, I only feel the need to do this for the core races, not any of the featured, uncommon or monstrous ones.
Libris Mortis (new):
Complete Arcane (new):
Dragon Magic (new):
Dragon Magic was created to supplement Races of the Dragon and act as a helper because of the complimentary nature of the two books. Originally it did have some classes, namely Dragonfire Adept, unfortunately it had to be withdrawn at the last minute due to errors that it was causing. I intend to work on this and release it as soon as it is fixed.
Frostburn (new):
Races of the Dragon (new):
Dragonlance (thanks to another coder):
Dark Sun has undergone a bit of a change. With luck, if you have the dark sun setting selected it will no longer override core rules unless you have the source Enforce Dark Sun Rules selected. Also, humans and Half-Elves no longer use a DS specific race. Instead they use rHuman and rHalfElf. To set them to Dark Sun, set the source Enforce Dark Sun Rules, see above.
The dark sun spells have been set for pathfinder rules, for example spells that are listed as Wizard spells, are instead added to both sorcerer and wizard lists. And many spells have been added to pathfinder classes such as Witch, Alchemist, Bloodrager, Oracle, Alchemist and so on. This is to allow for the diversity of classes in pathfinder to be used, also to allow Dark Sun spells to be used elsewhere if desired.
There will be other items that I add or perhaps remove from this list. I am happy to speak to anyone who would like to contribute. Just send me a PM, and I can give you my SKYPE.
Please DONT just send me files to contribute. I dont want to just say, "sorry I cant use," or "Jeez, I already finished that." Ask first, no sense reinventing the wheel as they say.

- Races
- Beholder (required for Forgotten Realms)
- Mechanics
- Legacy Renames no longer use Preclude. They use mechanics to rename the livename. This means, there is no more source errors since childfound can be used without having the source added.
- Hide Pathfinder deities no longer uses preclude. No more source issues, faster run time.
- Invocations Mechanic, Ability and Procedure. These are used for Invocation style classes; such as the Warlock and Dragonfire Adept. At the moment the Class ability isn't really all that flexable, and has a few known bugs; especially when players multiclass. This does not function properly at all with Gestalt, which I am working on. It also does not differentiate between what classes it is bootstrapped to, therefore if you have more than one Invocation class it counts BOTH class levels for the determination of your Invocation Level. For more details see the xInvoke ability notes.
