First of all, I'm new to Hero Lab and I'm still learning the basics. So far I'm enjoying the software and it feels easy to use. I looked for a feature question thread but didn't see it. So I'm asking here.
I've tried searching on here and as far as I can tell I'm up to date on the community file but I don't see a couple of things. Maybe they're not implemented, so I thought I'd ask.
1. Wolf Totem Barbarian. I see ape and bear but can't for the life of me find wolf. Spirit totem I see but not the other one.
2. Shifter feats. I see a few but only about half.
3. Other barbarian variants such as trapkiller, devil's luck, etc. I see spell sense but no trapkiller.

Since I see some of these but not the ones I'm looking for, I feel like it's something I'm doing wrong but I don't know what.

Any and all help is appreciated
 
Hi NOMster. Welcome to Hero Lab. So, the community set isn't complete. We are still working to add things. If you can't find something odds are it hasn't been done yet. I'm happy to add things to the to-do list, and I also take contributions if you are interested in trying to add things yourself.

Since I can't keep track of everything, if you want to make any requests for things you don't see please include a sourcebook so I know where to look for it. Thanks for checking out HL and the community set!
 
Wolf totem is in the community files. You might have to check to see if the source is active. Not sure about the Shifter feats but I know I got all the ones from ECS in there

Also, welcome and enjoy :)
 
Thanks for getting back to me. I can look around and see if I can work with it as far as adding something, but I doubt if I'll be much help in that regard. full time+ along with 2 teens makes sitting down to focus a pipe dream. anyway, here's the things i would be looking for with sources. bolded are my highest interest

Wolf Totem- Unearthed Arcana p48
Trapkiller -Dungeonscape p8
Devils luck and Dashing Step -Dragon magazine vol 349
Shifter feats -Races of Eberron p113 (shifter savagery especially)
Streetfighter -Here this one is especially tasty as I'm about to hit 7th.

I looked again and UA is checked in sources but the only Totems appearing are ape and bear. All the spirit totems and totem manifestation from CC that replace fast movement show up, but not the base class variant replacement from UA that replaces uncanny dodge, trapsense (some case), and IUD.

Ah, didn't realize they were separate features. My bad :D
 
I think I got most of this worked out now. One thing though. I've selected shifter/razorclaw but when I choose great rend it gives me an error that I need to be razorclaw to qualify. Also, the extra shifter trait tells me there's no choice to make even with 2 other shifter feats.

Looks like a couple of bugs. I'll add these to the bug list.
 
Also, i just want to say, I've tried every other character builder/sheet out there and this is by far the easiest to work with, customize, and use. adding custom weapons/feats/variants...it's all gravy.

thank you guys for this.

no worries, i went into the adjustment tab and manually added the permanent adjustments and it took it.

Glad you found a workaround. I discovered that all of the feats that look for Shifter traits weren't working. I have resolved this issue. I'll look into the Extra Shifter Trait next. Thanks for the reports!
 
awesome. is anyone working on any sorcerer variants? i was trying to add drakken familiar but I'm not having any luck.

There is a flaw with my workaround that i just noticed. it basically adds the bonuses from the shifter traits all the time instead of only when the box is ticked under "in play". I tried the newest update and tried to remove the adjustments, but it still acts the same as before with not giving me an extra shifter triat option and not recognizing that i have razorclaw chosen when i try to take "Great Rend".

i haven't released the fix yet. Try the attached file. Pretty sure it will compile with the current version of the community set.

Doesn't seem any different, but you've done a lot and this is a real specific thing so I'm not worried about it. I can make most of it work enough to use.
