Hero Lab Ultimate Psionics Discrepancies

I've been going through and seeing a lot of differences in Hero Lab to what's in my PDF of Ultimate Psionics. I'd like to go in and fix the files/data to match what's in the PDF. Is there some way I could help the Hero Lab team in fixing the information as I find it so we have everything correct in the Ultimate Psionics pack?

Two different ways to do this. One is way more "techy" based then the other but is best way.

First way is to give us a list of "Things" that is out of sync and needs to be updated. We will do what we can as we can.

The second way is to actually come on board as an "Editor". Means a bit of learning and setup as we use a Real Source Code repository that allows for multiple people to make changes to files at the same time. The tools we use are SourceTree and GitHub which are both "free" but do require setup and have a bit of a learning curve.

But I would be happy to have someone on board willing to update the text they find that is out of sync. Its a time consuming job actually. :)

If interested check out THIS thread in the User Projects forum. That first forum post has a link to a quick PDF I put together on setting up GitHub with SourceTree. You will also need to register on GitHub for a free account.
 
Hmmm I'll look into it!

I'm guessing it's a "do it in your free time" thing, or could someone actually get paid to help out? Just asking :D. I'd have more time in the day to do it if it's the later, but either way I can attempt to help... and I'll definitely make a list... it would just take time because I'm running into these inconsistencies while I'm making characters.
 
guess one thing to make sure is the pdf you are looking at is the current version out there too :D

and it is definitely a free time thing. no payment.
 
Well I had a rule dispute earlier about the PP cost of Shared Power. On the SRD it was 4 as well on Hero Lab, but in my PDF that I bought from Paizo it was 2 PP increase. So they double checked and SRD only has Expanded Psionics which is probably where Hero Lab was pulling their information from.

I might just make a list of anything that I choose to do in HL and if there's a discrepancy I'll make a note of it and post them whenever I find them.

Any discrepancy you can just post/email/PM me the Thing name (feat, power, whatever). Than what I do make sure I have the latest PDF and simply "copy/paste" the whole text again into HL. That makes it the simplest way to make sure we have the latest text that matches the pdf.

LOL I am really laughing at the comment about getting paid! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! This is open source "free" for "gaming" groups to use.

I will not "pay" anyone with real money. If people want to help out great. If not that is fine too. :)

*chuckle* get paid.... OMG its killing me! :D ;):p
 
One of the running jokes when I was in the army was, when you'd draw a particularly crappy duty (like fire-guard), that you were getting paid in the "Respect and admiration of your friends and enemies". Feel free to use that next time you're voluntold to do something!
 
was just lookin on paizo to see if i could tell what version they have of the pdf and can't see anything. the copy i have also has Shared Power with 2 pp's. i just updated the text of the feat in the files but you won't see the change until shadow's next release of the package.
 
I'm not sure where to post this, and also I don't have much programming experience.

I am making a 4th -level mind blade using the current third-party community package, and it looks like the "Treat the mindblade as a masterwork weapon" rule is not in the code. I've got a light weapon, and the attack bonus reads +9, while my base attack is +4 and my STR mod is +5.

Just flagging this for your next update. And thanks for making this!!
