Custom Wildshape Template: Question

Greetings, everyone. First time poster. I'm nice, really.
So I've got the editing bug, which usually happens with this type of program.

I'm |-| this close to perfecting a Wildshape template for my Druid, and I'm running into an issue.

I'm basing the template off the Werebear-Afflicted Template, and I've customized the xLyChange Racial Special to assist with the Toggling aspect.

So, almost everything works, except I'm getting a phantom +2 Con bonus and a Swim modifier that I can't figure out where it comes from for the life of me.

I know the Bear template has "#racialbonus[skSwim] += 4" in it, but I've stripped that out. It also has a 9 Con modifier, but I've both switched that to 0 and removed it. Neither changes it.

I don't know if this is probably not enough info to help, so let me know if there;s anything else I can provide to give you an idea what I need to change.

I also know there's a Wildshape template pack out there, but it's not toggleable which, in play, is a massive help. Also, it generates a ton of extra attacks which I don't need.

Thanks in advance for any help!:D
 
From exposure recently to the Wear mechanics it seems to be doing stuff Under the Hood we as editors have no access to. So your best bet is to simply put in a "negative"/penalty amount to offset the values its adding.
 
Thanks for the reply, Shadow.
I managed to figure it out through process of elimination. For some reason the Shapechanger subtype gives you swimming and a Fort boost. Once I removed that, I'm good to go. It's crude, but works perfectly for what I need!

So what is a good resource that has a list of Tags, Things, etc? I'm flying by trial and error.. like I tend to do.. but a good source of information would be handy. I've skimmed through the manuals that come with the software, and they are useful, but not all encompassing.

For instance, I'm piggybacking on the "Hero.LyHybrid" and "Hero.LyAnimal" tags to enable form swapping. I'd like to create my own, but when I tried, it said I needed to define them. I'm familiar enough with programming that I know how to, but where to is another matter!

Of course, if it's also "under the hood" then I'll just make do ;)
 
Soo.. I found your Wildshape pack, Shadow. A lot cleaner than mine, and works a lot better. Think I'll stick with yours :o
