Is there a specific file I need to program them into or just put them into their original file? I don't want to mess up whatever setup you are trying for.

You can use the Extend Thing mechanic to add core spells to a class spell list. Take a look at the Complete Adventurer for an example. Do this in the file that contains the class.

For non-core spells, you can modify the spell directly in whatever file it is contained in. Just make sure to add any necessary sources.

All right, I'll do some looking and then some tinkering.
 
First, I'd like to say thank you to Sendric and other programmers for pushing out this update. I truly appreciate all your hard work for our shared hobby.

Thank you, Sendric et. al.

Next, did I read somewhere in one of the threads that Sendric was doing the core programming changes and Shadowchemosh and his minions will add new errata (classes, spells, etc) from the splatbooks soon after, or did Sendric and Shadowchemosh coordinate the release and 1.8 is everything that's being pushed out this year?

Again guys, great job. Thanks.
 
ShadowChemosh does the core stuff, Sendric and the rest of us do the splatbooks. There was supposed to be a core release before a community release but the core release is taking longer than expected so Sendric pushed out what updates we have done so far.

Correct. Just to be clear I am NOT an employee of LW. I literally volunteered my free time to do enhancements to the d20 CORE game.

Unfortunately my free time has been sucked up by my real life job. My work week has gone to six ten hour work days. :( So I am real sorry but I have been simply unable to make the final set of "changes" that Colen from LW wanted me to do. That leaves the next release of the d20 CORE at like 90% done but unable to finish it.

No worries SC. Just know you are appreciated, and take the time you need to juggle real life, we can wait, we have the patience and gratitude of a paladin, don't we guys? :D:D
 
IDK but I get this error when I try to generate a character with a prestige class;

Only since the update however, any thoughts?

Updated how? I don't know how you are updating the spells, only that you are updating something.
Click to expand...

Spells now allow multiple class tags, meaning each spell you create can be assigned to multiple classes. This was not previously available which lead to multiple versions of each spell. Additionally, the old thingid's for the core spells used an archaic naming convention (ie sWiz10001). Spells are being updated with new thingid names to match Pathfinder standards (ie spDetMag0). Additionally, they are getting updated to reduce clutter by assigning all appropriate tags to the spell.

The only problem is that we have to keep the old spells around with the Helper.Obsolete tag (which removes them from being selected, but does not remove them if they already exist). This is because old portfolios would pop all kinds of errors if we didn't, and as I've learned people like to keep old portfolios around.

Bladesinger is the one I get the error with

Hmm....actually it looks like Maho-Bujin and Maho-Tsukai are to blame here. I will look into it.

Pre-req scripts on these PrC's should use "childfound" instead of "child". That will remove the error. You can also add the Taint adjustment to the character to avoid the error. I've fixed this for the next release.

Woops, my bad on that one. The PrC's Maho-Tsukai and Maho-Bujin from Oriental Adventures have a minimum Taint score requirement to take the class.

I'll keep that in mind if something like that ever comes up again.

Have fun with Bladesinger, btw. It's ridiculously awesome :D

In general, you should use childfound instead of child unless it is 100% guaranteed that whatever you are referencing will be on the character.

Ok, so what is the new line of coding if I want to use this Extend Thing that you mentioned? Where does it go?
Click to expand...

Take a look at the Complete Adventurer, General Tab, *Extend Thing. There is no line of code. You simply select a thing and tell it what tag to apply.

Ah, ok. Got it.

EDIT: Is it possible to assign an Extend Thing to make it possible to allow a spell to be cast by all classes that prepare spells? Cuz Sanctified spells can be used by any class that prepares spells.

No, there isn't a single flag for that. However, it is possible to do using a script similar to how we assign Corrupt spells. Check out the Corrector special in the Players Handbook 1 user file.
