WIP - D20 Modern

T

Howdy all!

Wanted to post up what I've done with D20 modern so far to get opinions, suggestions, etc. ;)

Here's how it needs to be done though:

1. Make a duplicate of the d20 dataset and rename it "d20 modern"
2. copy all of these into the new folder
3. when loading, the D20 Modern Core should be a choice on the configure tab.
4. Select it and enjoy. :)

This has the following items included and mostly complete except for descriptions, summaries, etc..:
Basic Classes
Skills
Languages
Feats
Occupations
Advanced Class - Soldier
Advanced Class - Martial Artist
Advanced Class - Gunslinger
Advanced Class - Infiltrator
Advanced Class - Daredevil
Advanced Class - Bodyguard

(I need to figure out the Class Defense formula for a couple of these still though.)

I've got a few weapons and armor included too, but all needs a bit of work.

Enjoy! :)

Sorry, I guess I'm the slow one here, lol. Weapons are coming along, just slow data entry. I look around and to see if I could "cheat" buy exporting from another dataset, no go. lol Back to typing. I'll post them here when done. Oh, one side note, the weapons file seems to work in both the d20 and the Pathfinder dataset. Kind of cool!

NP :) I'm just glad for the help.

I hadn't thought if the dataset would work for Pathfinder or not. Although I'm pretty sure the ids for precluding and replaces would have to change....
 
almost done with weapons, just a few more. Yea the core dataset will take some work to move over, but some of the simple things work fine.
 
I just finished with the ammo. BTW - What do you want me to do about cost. I left it blank on everything. I see you are trying to do the wealth roll. Didn't seem to work yet.
Kev
 
My thoughts are to have the cost as whatever the Wealth rating is. It'd be up to the player to adjust everything for purchases. Also, that way the Cost is at least visible...

Checking the weapons file: great! :) I'm adding the appropriate User Tags to the weapons and I'll re-upload the whole thing together since I have the change with the Proficiencies that makes them show as proficient on the selector when purchasing. :)

(Just for reference they are:
<tag group="User" tag="ProfEMel" name="Proficiency - Exotic Melee Weapons"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfSimp" name="Proficiency - Simple Weapons"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfArch" name="Proficiency - Archaic Weapons"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfEFCa" name="Proficiency - Exotic Firearm (Cannon)"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfEFHM" name="Proficiency - Exotic Firearm (Hvy MG)"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfEFGL" name="Proficiency - Exotic Firearm (Grenade Launcher)"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfEFRL" name="Proficiency - Exotic Firearm (Rocket Launcher)"/>
<tag group="User" tag="ProfFire" name="Proficiency - Personal Firearms"/>
)

Also, Proficiency Groups:
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPEMel" name="Weapon Proficiency - Exotic Melee Weapons" abbrev="WP - Exotic Melee Weapons"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPSimp" name="Weapon Proficiency - Simple Weapons" abbrev="WP - Simple Weapons"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPPFire" name="Weapon Proficiency - Personal Firearms" abbrev="WP - Personal Firearms"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPArch" name="Weapon Proficiency - Archaic Weapons" abbrev="WP - Archaic Weapons"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPEFCa" name="Weapon Proficiency - Exotic Firearms - Cannon" abbrev="WP - Exotic Firearm - Cannon"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPEFHM" name="Weapon Proficiency - Exotic Firearms - HMG" abbrev="WP - Exotic Firearm - Hvy MG"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPEFGL" name="Weapon Proficiency - Exotic Firearms - Grenade Launcher" abbrev="WP - Exotic Firearm - G. Launcher"/>
<tag group="wGroup" tag="WPEFRL" name="Weapon Proficiency - Exotic Firearms - Rocket Launcher" abbrev="WP - Exotic Firearm - R. Launcher"/>

Which one? :)

The weapons needs to be included with the rest of the D20 modern files...

I'm doing some touch ups on the data, so look for a new set of files in the morning (it's 22:30 here and time to sack out.. )
 
That's strange. It's working for me, I just unzipped it and copied d20 game and named it d20 modern and put the files in the new game folder and it works.
 
New file is up! :)

Dartnet: PM me your email address and I'll send you the files individually. It may be the fact I don't have actual winZip, but used winRAR and renamed it.
 
The HLExport program that was installed with Hero Lab is designed to create .hl files from groups of .user files (and/or portfolios). Windows recognizes it as something that should run Hero Lab when you double click the file, and I believe Colen's set up this board so that they're a legitimate file type to post here.

You'll find the program in the same directory as Hero Lab.
 
lol, I lost all the work I did last night by replacing the weapons file, my bad. It's cool it was just the ammo, easy fix. Anyways I'll get back on finishing it up today.

I completely forgot about that functionality. I'll have to give it a try and see how it works.

Been there, done that. :) If you want to, it might be easier to make each group of things it's own file. Eventually, I may package them all back into one, but as things are progressing, separate is good.
 
Yea I think it is eaiser to hunt down errors as separte. I did find a back up copy of the weapons in my Pathfinder folder, (from work on the conversion). So I was able to get it back with np. Got all the weapons and stuff done. just need to add in the cost of stuff and check the file for things I missed. Then I'll post it here for you.
