New User Looking for somethin'

[Vexnos]

I have used the product for a while and have only recently begun to look at adding to the existing list of games. to this end im slowly learning the general organization and layout of the files and code and starting a scrap system of my own as I go.

In the D20 system what is the name of the "attribute" control file?

or

How does the system generate and display the modifiers of +1,+2,+3 at the various stat values.

Those mechanics are within the packaged portion of the game system, not the part available to the users. If your new game system is not a d20 derivative, I'd suggest reading the authoring kit wiki here: http://hlkitwiki.wolflair.com/index.php5/Main_Page.

If you are thinking of doing a d20 derivative, the first thing I'd suggest is going to the Hero Lab Discussion folder on this forum - the stickied posts there include polls asking which game systems we should do next, and a stripped-down version of the d20 files, designed to be a starting point for creating games based on that, is one of the options.

The authoring kit wiki is still be something you should study if you're thinking of going that route.

I was not so much looking to base a system in d20... though a stripped out system that was editable would be of help in the future (d20 modern/future). I was just toying at this point and could not locate the filles that were needed for that part of the sheet.
