Date file sources...
I am just now getting around to really checking out HL. This is pretty pathetic since I've owned it since GenCon last year. I checked it out and started putting Spell Compendium spells into the program a couple of weeks after getting back from GenCon, but then I had problems with my computer. I ended up having erase everything on my PC. Luckily I had backed up pretty much everything of importance on it. Unfortunately, I didn't have my HL date sets backed up; not that I had that much done anyway.
Well, I had other things happen that prevented me from really getting into working with HL and now I'm looking to get back into getting things added to it so that it is up to speed with my campaign(s).
I currently run and Forgotten Realms campaign and will be starting an Iron Kingdoms campaign at the end of this year. I have a couple of questions about HL first.
If I understand what I've read from the manual, I should be able to just copy the "core" d20 file and make it into an Iron Kingdoms file? Not sure of any of this quite yet, but that is what I think I understood. And then I can just add other stuff not covered by the "core" stuff already in HL.
If this is not the case could someone point me in the right direction for creating two different date sets. I think that's the right term. I need one for FR and one for IK. The both are d20, just IK has many different things going on that FR.
Another question I have. Is there somewhere I can get other data files for download. I'm talking stuff like spell compendium, the complete books, stuff like that. I'm not against adding this stuff myself, but if someone else has already done it and is willing to share I would appreciate it. I'm not sure how long it takes to add all that stuff, but I'm sure it's time consuming.
If someone is will to share date files/sets, that would be cool. If not I understand.
Thanks.
