Star Wars Saga

I have just started working on this, using d20 as a starting point.

I'm trying to add the hidden property to the Drow Elf race, but keep getting the error that rDrElf is required by fPfDarkAde and fPfUmbralS. I have tried given those 2 things the hidden property as well, but it continues to give me the same error.

Any help please?

thanks!
 
When I put the Drow Elf race (rDrElf) hidden, I get the following error message:

Thing 'fPfDarkAde' - Thing requires thing 'rDrElf' that does not exist
Thing 'fPfUmbralS' - Thing requires thing 'rDrElf' that does not exist

Putting fPfDarkAde & fPfUmbralS as hidden, doesn't change anything, I still get the same error.

fPfDarkAde seems to be the 'Dark Adept'-feat that came with the Pathfinder Second Darkness adventure path. Race Drow Elf is a prerequisite of the feat.

fPfUmbralS seems to be the Umbral Scion feat which also came with the Pathfinder Second Darkness adventure path. Drow Elf is also a prerequisite of the feat.
 
for some reason the Drow is calling these "Things" to load up the baseic Drow template. You can ither modify the Drow template to remove these 2 items, or you will need to copy the 2 "things" in as well. Not sure how you are using the Drow in Star Wars so i cant say which might be better for you.

did you copy the drow over from PF or D&D?
 
When you hide the fPfUmbralS and fPfDarkAde things, are you sure you get the same error? It's possible that when you hide them, they're causing other error messages that are reporting other issues.

After hiding fPfUmbralS and fPfDarkAde, can you copy and paste the error messages you get into a reply to this thread?
 
After adding those 2 as hidden as well, I get the exact same message.

Please see the screenshot I added.

I copied over 3.5 as a starting point, so need the Drow Elf race removed as option for Star Wars :)

It looks like the Drow Elf race is required for the 2 items you are getting errors on. If you dont want the drow Elf in the Star wars universe, what i would suggest is to pull up the 2 items that are cuaisng the erros. in them you will see pre-reqs. just remove the code that points to the drow elf race and it should clear it up.
 
If I open pth_second_darkness.dat in the 'source' folder, it wont let me edit tho.

I have tried copying over those 2 items, filled in the replace id field and removed the prereqs that way, that also didn't work and still gives the error.
 
I assume you are making a star wars user file, since I just read the tail end of the thread. in your star wars user file create a new Drow race by using new copy, give it a unique ID, then in the replaces field put in the unique id for the orignal drow race.

Under hidden enter the unique id for your new Drow race that should hide the Drow.
You can probaby also just create one of your Star Wars races and use the replaces thing field for the unique id of the drow and do it that way as well.

And while at it, while the editor will not let you edit the game system core files, you can edit xml files directly with an editor like notepad or one built for xml like XML Marker taking out the prerequistes on those two areas manually. If you do that though make sure you keep a backup so that if you screw up the syntax you can start over.
 
Thanks a bunch Praetor, that worked like a charm!

And now one big newbie question: where can I find those xml files? Can't seem to find any in the map of the game system itself.
 
In this vein I'm going to ask...is there an HL api that solo developers can use as opposed to using the HL development tools? The dev tools that HL has are very nice but if there was an open api it'd help the community develop this sort of thing.
 
It is still to much.
The more I have played 4E d&D the more I wish that SAGA had gone further and was updated into a full version of 4E. SAGA does some things ok but it still has a large amount of bulk from 3.5.
I have not had time to work on this at all to much to do and no time to do it.

Maybe someone else may want to try.
 
This is a pretty old thread line, but I have been interested in something similar. Has anyone made any progress Star Wars: Saga.

Would this require the authoring kit?
 
Yes it would require the authoring kit to use it out of demo mode.

I'm also interested to see where people have gone with this version?

I'm still working on the d6 version.
 
This thread seems a little inactive, but I've been working actively on a Saga Edition rule set by building it up from scratch. My plan is to do nothing but the core rule book first, and then add on from there.

What I need is someone with a fair bit of knowledge of the scripting language and the authoring kit to answer the occasional odd question and people to help me debug and verify the data sets.

If anyone is interested in contributing, please post a reply and we can get the ball rolling.
 
I'm working on the Star Wars d6 version at the moment (not done anything since December last year though) and will most likely be doing some more work next month.

I don't mind collaborating on how I've done stuff, but posting here might solve more issues for you.

Click to expand...

Cool. I'll just keep checking back by then and posting the occasional question.

Sadly, I know nothing about the d6 Star Wars rules, or I would offer to help.
