Bug Reports - Community Created 3.5 D&D data set

Is the "Cleric trading Domains Bon Feat" variant class how I'm supposed to trade domains to get domain devotion feats? Because it seems that it only opens up Acrobatic and Agile as feats to take in place of the domains

.
There are two options for this variant class. One of them adds Acrobatic and Agile. The other adds metamagic feats. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar enough with this variant option to know if that's correct. If its not correct, can you please explain exactly how in the community bug thread?

Basically, you remove a domain from the character and get the matching domain devotion feat for free.

In addition, you can choose to give up access to a domain in exchange for the corresponding domain feat. Doing so allows you to select up to three domain feats, but you cannot prepare domain spells or use the granted power of the sacrificed domain. In essence, you trade in a domain for an extra feat slot that you can spend only on a specific domain feat.
For example, the above cleric of Pelor could choose to give up the granted power and spells of the Good domain for the Good Devotion feat.

The Extra HD class is brilliantly helpful, but I've noticed it doesn't calculate CR as it should for various creature types.

I imagine most of the work would have to be done to the actual creature types in the MM - Creature Types Compiled.user file -- then nodded to in the Extra HD file -- but what would the eval code be for fractionally increasing CR instead of one-to-one?

It would probably be easier to create a script in the Extra HD "class". Can you give me an example of what you're trying to do, particularly in regards to the fractional increase?

OK. I think I see what's happening here. I'm not entirely sure that the implementation was completed or what happened. I'll take a look and see if I can come up with a cleaner solution.

For example, the rules for improving monsters say the CRs for abberations, constructs, elementals, fey, giants, humanoids, oozes, plants, undead and vermin are to increase by one for every four HD added to the creature.

CRs for animals, magical beasts and monstrous humanoids increase by one every three HD, and for dragons, outsiders and non-associated class levels it is one CR increase for every two HD, or levels.

Ahhh...gotcha. The way I would implement that (and I'll take a look at doing so) is to use if statements to determine the character's type. Then based on that, set a variable that determines the CR increase, then increase the CR by that variable. So, for example (not code, just concept):

Code: 
if (character type = animal, magical beast or monstrous humanoid) then
 crbonus = ExtraHD/3 rounded down
endif

CR += crbonus

I think I would ignore non-associated class levels for this because Extra HD adds only racial HD.
 
Sounds good. I'm a journalist, not a programmer, but I'll start trying to figure out the code for it.

I'm not a programmer either. After further review, I think you may be right in that it will be easier/better to adjust the CR from the race type rather than with the ExtraHD class. I tried my above method, and I don't think there's a good way to make it work. That said, it appears that adding ExtraHD adds one to the CR for every "level". I don't see where that's taking place just yet.
 
I thought it may be that the race types needed to be tweaked, since the BAB and saves are already called from them.

I wonder if a script setting CR as HD/4 on the plant type, for example, would do the trick?

I think it takes more than that, because like I said earlier, every time you add "Extra HD" it adds 1 to the CR regardless of type. So you have to account for that. Here's a possible solution (done for Aberration):

Code: 
 ~ Add appropriate CR
  var crbonus as number
  crbonus = hero.childfound[cHelpEHD].field[cTotalLev].value
  crbonus = round(crbonus/[COLOR="Red"]4[/COLOR],0,-1)
  crbonus = crbonus - hero.childfound[cHelpEHD].field[cTotalLev].value
  herofield[tCR].value += crbonus

The number in red is the one to change for each type. Otherwise, you should just be able to copy and paste through each of the types in the "MM -Creature types Compiled.user". I added this script to the bottom of the third eval script. I'm going to go through and make the changes for all types then post the file here for you to download. You can then take it and let me know what you think.

It appears this did the trick! Well played.
 
This has probably already been addressed, but in Spell Comp Domains.usr, the Undeath Domain needs the fExtraTurn bootstrap added.
 
I don't know if these are bugs or I am just doing something wrong, but I recently downloaded the 3.5 data set from cheeseweazel and I am have the following problems:

I have a Lvl1 Spellthief/Lvl 4 Wizard (Conjurer) I am trying to enter into Hero Lab. I have turned on all of the non-region specific books including Unearthed Arcana.

1) My Conjurer has the Immediate Magic class variant feature from the PHB2 which swaps out the ability to get a familar with an Immediate Magic ability dependant upon your subclass. This does not appear as a class variant option under Varaints and I don't see how to turn it on.

2) She has the Wizard class variant from Unearthed Arcana (Pg 59) that gives her bonus fighter feats instead of bonus Wizard feats (including swapping out Scribe Scroll for a fighter feat). This variant does not appear on the class variant list and I can't seem to turn it on. Though oddly I see the Wizard Class variant that lets you take an animal companion instead of a familiar from the same source.

3) She has the 2nd level spell Heart of Air from the Complete Mage in her spellbook, but this does not come up as an option when I go to add spells to her spellbook in Hero Lab.

Does anyone know anything about these issues?

I can't say for certain, but my guess is these things may not have been done yet. There has been a lot of work done for the community data set, but as you can imagine, there's a ton of material to draw from so not everything is there yet. I won't be able to take a look at this until late this week or early next. I'll do so as soon as I can.

Update: Ok, took a look. These items have not been implemented. It appears none of the PHB2 variant options have been done. Unearthed Arcana was not fully implemented by LW, and some stuff was added by the community, however, this one appears to have fallen through the cracks. As for spells from Complete Mage, only spells A-B have been done.

One of the things I'm going to be doing soon is going through several sourcebooks and checking to see what is done and what is missing. I'll add these items as requested additions, but I'm still looking for contributors so it might be a while before we see any major additions.

Hello all, new to HL and this forum--these 3.5 files are great, must have taken a lot of work.

One question on Force of Personality Feat - "You add your Charisma modifier (instead of your Wisdom modifier) to Will saves against mind-affecting spells and abilities."

I see the author comments in the editor say "Add a script that calculates this bonus. (situational, ignored) Chk, does this apply all the time or is it a choice? As in, if Cha is lowered below the Wis, do you take a penalty or is the higher bonus applied? (ignored)"

Personally I'd say it applies all the time, not a turn on/off ability thing, but s a trained state of mind even in the very rare ocassion it might go negative (and that probably makes for easier coding).

I'm not a programmer, just fiddled a bit with some of these with some success--anyone know how you could code this to use Cha vice Wis for the Will save?
