Currently playing a warforged artificer so just having access to eberron campaign setting doesn't help much since currently warforged is not listed in the race section.

I will add Eberron items to the list of requests. I'll see what I can do about getting at least the core stuff added from that for the 2.0 release later this year.

One of the best ways to get going is to try to create a new one by copying an existing race and tweaking things here and there. Eventually creating from scratch is pretty easy.

Speaking of editing things...
I'm having trouble with Pre-reqs like:

foreach pick in hero from BaseWep where "Broadcast.WepFocus"
validif (each.tagis[wCategory.Reach] <> 0)
nexteach

My major issue is where can I see a list of all possible containers like BaseWep, BaseSkill, etc... and where the hell are the fields "Broadcast.?"

I ask this because let's say I take Weapon Focus (Guisarme), but I have not added a Guisarme in any form to my inventory (wGuisarme or iMagWeapon); then by the wonderful logic of this pre-req I DO NOT qualify for a feat like Short Haft. I figure because it is searching the weapons I have, not the feats, checking if any that I own have weapon focus attached to them, and then if so checking if it is a reach weapon. This is a terribly unprincipled way of looking at it. One should be checking the Feats I have, seeing if there is a Weapon Focus feat, and then for each of them seeing if they apply to a reach weapon.

<NEW EDIT LOL>
Wow, I just figured out how to do it all by myself. The pre-req for feats like this should read

foreach pick in hero from BaseFeat where "HasFeat.fWepFoc"
validif (each.field[fChosen].chosen.tagis[wCategory.Reach] <> 0)
nexteach

Which does exactly what you'd want. It looks at your feats (a'la BaseFeat) and specifically grabs the Weapon Focus feats (HasFeat.fWepFoc). Then it looks to what you chose in the fChosen field (each.field[fChosen]) and grabs the thing you chose (each.field[fChosen].chosen) and looks to its tags to see if the weapon has reach (each.field[fChosen].chosen.tagis[wCategory.Reach]).

Boo Yah! I'm getting better at this.

Sendric, I'm seriously down for going through and editing files that are released from you to correct such snafu's; that way I can stop making my own custom replacement versions and make my changes "permanent".

Ok, took me a few reads to understand what you were saying, but I've got the fix in for that feat for that pre-req (doesn't solve the proficiency with reach weapons, though). I'll add it to the upcoming release.

Feel free to poke through the set and search for bugs like this. I'm sure there's a lot of little bugs like this that slipped through. I didn't even know this feat existed, let alone that there was a bug with it.

Has 1.9 been released? My updater doesn't show any new release.

Well the proficiency prereq is done the same way. The feats for like Melee Weapon Mastery: Bludgeoning are equally bugged.

Hmmm...ok, I believe I have managed to fix the proficiency pre-req. I'll take a look at Melee Weapon Mastery as well.

Edit: Ok, I've got those fixed now too. This will be last change for release 1.9. Thanks for the reports.

Hello!

I was just wondering if you guys ever wrote the artificer class into the Ebberon campaign setting? It's not really showing but maybe I've downloaded the wrong pack?

[Sendric]

No, I haven't done anything with Eberron yet. The good news is going forward, releases will be occurring with more frequency, so you won't have to wait 6 months for another release. I'll see about getting that and other Eberron data into the next one.
