D&D 5e Community Pack

I just finished up putting a lot of the missing creature variants and templates from the Monster Manual into the next patch. One thing I noticed is that if you pull an SRD monster like Acolyte in with the Encounter Builder and try to give it a template that has a source tag, or bootstraps a special ability that someone gave a source, the template won't fully apply or sometimes won't show as an option.

The fix is to go into Configure Hero and make sure all the proper community sources are checked (when you use encounter builder for SRD monsters, they don't have any sources checked). I'm thinking this procedure should be in bold in some FAQ somewhere about using the Encounter Builder or looking at old .POR and .STOCK files.

I'm looking forward to next release now, there is a lot coming with this one.

I agree, I am really looking forward to this update. I have no skills at all so I have not been able to help. I do really love what the team has offered us so far and I know this will be wonderful. :)

Thanks for the huge update!

Also, it seems there's a small bug in which the starter spell "healing elixir" got added as a cleric cantrip but not as a lvl 1 wizard or warlock spell. I'd try to submit a fix myself but I don't really get github. Still, great update.

Even if you don't know how to use github for updating the code, you should open a new issue.

If you have the actual code from one of your fixes, you can copy/paste it into the new issue for a contributor to push into the next hotfix release.
 
Even if you don't know how to use github for updating the code, you should open a new issue.

The concern might relate to the fact that even to simply report an issue you have to sign up to github. That might not seem like very much to some people, but personally I don't like registering with a website/company that I'm not going to use or don't know about.
 
We use Github to keep track of the issues. If you aren't willing to use the Github then we cant guarantee support for your issue. We are all volunteers and don't have time to go seeking the issues in what ever corner of the internet they are being discussed. We have made a single place for people to report issues and request that people using our content use that single place to report issues.
 
I thought all of the EE spells were already done, are we missing one?

Do you have the Elemental Evil Player's companion source checked on your configuration screen?

Pick the hero in your portfolio, then hit Ctrl-K, scroll down the Hero settings and you should see the option and for the spells to show, you need to have this checked on the hero for the spells to show up.

If you created a hero before downloading the community pack, you'll need to go in and manually check this for each hero needing spells from EE.
 
It looks like Druid Land circles can no longer be chosen @ level 3 for additional spells unless the option has moved. I opened an issue on gh.
 
FIX FOR MISSING DRUID CIRCLES

The cause of the druid issue has been found. Please enable the following to turn the druid circles back on until we can push a fix out.

En5ider 31 - Forgotten Lore - Divine
 
Well. I'm back from the hospital . . . again. Been there for the last 2 weeks. :(

I see the next community pack patch is out. I apologize for not doing my share.:(
 
Another question. The Pathfinder HL has adjustment for wild shape which brings in accepted wild shape options for specific shapes when checked. How difficult would this be to implement for community or will we need to wait for Wolf to implement. Thanks again

According to the last release notes, a version of this was implemented, not sure if LW is adding their own version later. The wildshape adjustment seems to appear greyed-out on the minion, but it can still be applied and that changes the INT/WIS/CHA of the minion creature.

One small question: How long after Volo's guide was it available on Hero lab? I ask because Xanathar's guide will be out in November.

This isn't a rush, or a complaint or anything. Just wondering on a time-frame. HL really helps me when i DM. I can use pen and paper until then.


Also, does the authoring kit work with 5e? I used it with Pathfinder a few years ago, but i was a little hesitant to work with it in 5e because it's been so long i was worried about breaking my installation and LW is jumpy about reinstallations. I need this software as i have come to rely on it.

Both I and my players thank you for any responses.
