TobyFox2002 - Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance and Ravenloft Update

Thanks!

ART for DL would be nice!

Yesterday, i tested the PrC Mighty Anvil of reorx... my Char is cleric 8/ mighty anvil of reorx 7. at this level i‘ve DR 4/- , but HL shows me only DR 2/- (on iPad under register play, right border info) ...is that an error?

And then i search for medaillon of faith, but i don‘t find it...where can i find it?
 
Hello again!

One of our PC will play the PrC Healing Hand of Mishakal. Is there any plan for conversion for PF/HL? Or any other PrC from Holy Order of Stars? That would be nice!

Merry X-Mas from Germany/Cologne!
 
Sorry that I can not help you, but this file is done by a member of the community and not Lone Wolf, and real life might be keeping TobyFox2002 very busy. The 1st of the year is one of the busiest times of the year for some companies, give them a little more time, I am sure they will be back in the forms, when things slow down.
 
I am sorry, I didnt see your post. Those PrC's are on my agenda, yes. However, I have one tiny problem... I dont have a copy of those books, therefore it makes it a little difficult to convert those PrCs.

If you might be able to assist with that I'd be quite appretiative.

As for your older posts, I will examine those issues when I get a chance, I do not own an iPad so if the issue is one unique to the device there would be little I could do.

I intend to convert everything over, and use Subraces, so that you select the Core DWARF and then use a racial custom special to select what type of dwarf you want, to save clutter. I've been testing it with Forgotten Realms Elves and it sofar its working well.

I'll try it with Dragonlance Elves and Dwarves next; although I cannot say when the next release will be.

The core HL software is exactly the same for Windows/Mac/iPad. Meaning you dont have to worry about an issue being iPad specific or Mac specific. :)

If you really needed someone to test something specific for you on an iPad I would be willing to do so.
 
New to HL

Hello all! I am new to using Hero Lab and was browsing around and sounds like this thread has things I could use.

I am currently running a Pathfinder game set in Forgotten Realms during 1372 DR...so the 3E era. We have more or less converted things on the fly that we needed and never used any kind of software for things, but wow...HL is great and I am loving some of the tools.

Anyhow...for someone looking to add things from FR, where do I go to get started?

This is the place, you can make the request right here. However, where ever there is a conflict between 3.5 and 3.0 versions I will use the 3.5 version as the BASE. And Convert up from there.

But, feel free to make requests
 
FR Requests

Oh understood. We are using whatever the newer reference is in our "Forgotten Finders" game. Thank you for the quick response.

I guess the first thing is the Human Ethnic Groups and Ethnic Languages. I'd like a Human character to be able to pick say...I dunno...Chondathan as an ethnic group rather than the Pathfinder stuff like Ulfen. I'd also like to be able select a language for that group for free.

Second Deities, which is a bit harder since certain Domains no longer exist in Pathfinder. For the most part our group isn't affected since the players pick things you'd find in the PHB for the most part.

The big thing I would love...this is a long way off probably is "Regions" as per defined in 3.5 which would define starting languages and bonus languages rather than by race. Also give a choice of starting gear.

I am not worried about the Regional Feats. We have for the most part dropped it. No one took one, so really no need to deal with them. They are nice but several of them already have a rough equivalent in PF or have something with same name but is a good deal better than the FR version...like Cosmopolitan for example.
 
Ethnic Groups and Ethnic Languages? I'm not really sure what that is?

If there are deities that are missing let me know, likewise, domains... let me know. I had assistance with domains and deities this last update and he was a wonderful help but I know there is still much left to do, especially with some of the racial deities.

Bonus languages for regions I can look into, I did something like that for 3.5. But, I built that from the ground up. And to do it for pathfinder would require a full rework from the ground up.

I looked into the optional feat or bonus free gear choice, and as it was explained to me was, its not possible to hard-code. Just add the gear and add it for free, the most I can do is add in text to show what free gear options each region has.
 
Ethnic Groups

Currently when you select Human, HL gives you a choice of the ones for Pathfinder such as...

Azlanti, Chelaxian, Garundi, Keleshite, etc.

I'd like to select the major ones of...

Calishites
Chondathans
Damarans
Illuskans
Mulan
Rashemi
Tethyrians

or the minor ethnic groups of...

Arkaiun
Bedine
Chultans
Durpari
Ffolk
Gurs
Halruaans
Imaskari
Itzas
Lantanna
Mazticans
Nars
Netherese
Nubari
Raumvirans
Shaarans
Shou
Sossrim
Talfir
Tashalans
Tuigan
Turami
Ulutiuns
Vaasans
Zakharans

Most of this info is in Races of Faerûn and then cleaned up and codified in the 3.5 update Player's Guide to Faerûn.
 
Just wondering if this is suppose to be here: cwistest
I found it in the dragonlance campaign file and it seems like a placeholder or test class. Does it serve a functional purpose? If not you may want to hide it.
 
Spellcasting Prodigy

Hello, I don't know if this has been mentioned yet or not, but the spellcasting prodigy feat in the Forgotten Realms books do nothing. I'm not sure if it is a problem with the coding, of the effects of the feat just can't be coded properly, I just thought I would mention it, and find out.

The feat is not coded, an oversight. I will take a look at how to code this in the future. I am working on the next release for all of this right now. Along with fixing ethnicities and consolidating races.

As soon as I come up with something to get this to work I'll post it here for a quick fix to this.
 
I am currently working deep in the middle of the next update phase. I wanted to give you all a heads up on whats being worked on and give you all a chance to make suggestions.

In Progress:
More Subraces: Getting Rid of the need to show six different versions of Elves, Dwarves, Halflings etc on the Race selection. Eventually, I will use Ethnicity or Sub-Race as a racial selection for ALL. And just have the CORE Base Race, this will reduce the need to update all the Subrace entries every time something new and interesting comes out for the base race in Paizo.

As of Right now, all of the sub-races are still selectable, but in future updates they will be marked with the obsolete tag. Allowing their use for those that have already selected them, but requiring all future uses to select the core version and use the Sub-Race options.

Additional Monsters: I will be working on the Monstrous Compendium from Forgotten Realms and the Drangonlance Bestiary.

Companion Classes: Support for more of the companion classes from the 3.5 content. Including the Gryphonrider of Aglarond.
 
Well, to keep you all up to date on my progress, here is my on what this update will bring all you awsome folks:


Mechanics
  • Sub-Races (so we dont need like 30+ elves, humans, halflings, one for each system or variant.

Classes
  • Shadow Adept
  • Battlerager
  • Gryphonrider of Aglarond (yay) Finally understand pets enough!

Monsters
  • Monsters of Faerun (going to start working on this book).
  • Bestary of Krynn (same as above).

Perhaps more perhaps less based on input. I will also start working on *.stock files for monsters and named NPCS from these settings. But that will be the last thing I work on. The Dark Sun has stock files but they need to be compiled into one file instead of like... a dozen. I will add more to this list as more are items are added.
 
Hey TobyFox,

Love the time you've put into this, so thank you. I'm eager to review the FR stuff. I don't think I'm loading it right OR there's errors I don't quite understanding limiting me from seeing all FR content.

I added the source, could see your named items in the find updates, downloaded and imported the FR ones, and can see the files listed in the folder directory.

However, when I try to load PF now I get the following errors:

PSnB85C4VOL


I didn't think this would prevent showing ALL FR content but maybe? I can't see it listed at all (nothing FR anyway) in the Configure your Hero screen to include various data packs. If I try searching under class, race, spells, etc. I don't find anything referencing Forgotten Realms so I'm guessing it's not actually loading anything.

If I'm supposed to load some general pack, my apologies for not understanding. I greatly appreciate the assistance.

EDIT: TobyFox helped me privately to understand that the Dungeons and Dragons converted material is required! Ensure it is installed before any of the other items. Thanks!

As for the content of the errors.... I dont think they have to do with my files, if they do I havent the faintest idea what may cause them.

For those who cant see the image the error reads as follows:

The following errors occured:
Code: 
The width specififed for the edit panel must be a reasonable value
The wideth specified for summary panels must be a reasonable value
The 'initiative' script is required to support use of the tactical console
Default due type must be specified for the dice roller
The data files must define a component set of id 'Journal' for journaling
The data files must define a compnent set of id 'Actor' for campaign support

Again, I've not a clue why you may see these, Ive never seen anything like them before. I am sorry.
