Help with a Race Ability

I was wondering if there was a way get this to work in Hero Lab, I am working on inputting the Greyhawk Rebooted 5e book into the program. I am currently working on the half-Ogre, I have everything in and working, except this ability.

Big Hands:
You can wield two-handed weapons in only one hand. You ignore the two-handed weapon property. In addition, when wielding weapons with the versatile property in one hand, you may roll the two-handed damage die instead. If you have the dual wielder feat, you gain this benefit with both hands.

Is there a way that will automatically make this work without having to make new weapons, etc... as removing the need for 2 hands with these weapons - like removing the tags or something along those lines?

Any help is most appreciated... Thank you
 
Yeah check the tags on two-handed weapons. I'd remove the two-handed tag and the versatile tag. Make its wDieSize field equal its wDSizVers field.

You might want to make it a choice field; let the player choose any two-handed weapon that they have, then use that chosen field to manipulate the chosen weapon as stated above. I don't have HL in front of me at the moment; just play around with a dummy weapon to check on the appropriate tag and field names.
 
I am interested if you get this working. The Half Giant in Dark Sun homebrew is using a very similar system.
