Drewjitsu posted:Hopefully it doesn't over-write the feats we've fixed (like two-weapon defense). It may be possible that any updates done between my two short description revisions were over-written. Namely these: Updated 25-August-2011: Added Shielding Word reminder to Healing Word power card. Updated 25-August-2011: Updated Mounted Combat Feat Updated 27-August-2011: Updated Two-Weapon Defence Feat - now adds AC and REF to the character sheet. Would be worth checking out and redoing them if necessary.

I noticed that cleric.part also contains feats Pacifist Healer and Beatific Healer, and they override the new short descriptions for them in feats.part. Is there a good reason why the same rules element can be found in different part files? I think a specific rules element should be included in only one part-file to prevent this kind of problem.

Two-weapon defense is now fixed. Mounted combat has seemed to dissappared, someone should look into that. It looks like shielding word is okay, but I'm not so sure, due to TWD being borked. Anyway: Changes to Parts: Cleric.part removed beatific healer and pacifist healer and moved them to feats.part (like they should be) Feats.part added beatific healer and pacifist healer, fixed TWD.

Based on dragon 402's complete failure of a weapliment expertise article, I'm finding myself in need of creating a houseruled version of Versatile Expertise. However, I'm a little stumped as to how to proceed. I can't seem to find Versatile Expertise in any of the .part files, and when looking at "Versatile Expertise II" from feats.part, I can't see anything to edit to make the bonuses kick in at levels 11 and 21 instead of 15 and 25. I'm left wondering if this is one of those cases where the original developers did some magic behind the scenes to make it work.... Mind you I am by no means experienced at modifying this stuff, so I may just be missing something. Can any one point me in the right direction?

You can find them in the combined.dnd40.main file if you want to grab them all. Just paste them into a new .part and change the requires to 11/21 (or "Paragon Tier" and "Epic Tier", either works). Alternately, you can make a new feat with a different internal-id and change the _SupportsID on each weapon/implement entry if you want to leave the old one intact. You may also want to look at Staff Expertise and Ki Focus Expertise in the feats.part; both of those apply to both implements and weapons, so if you want to set up weapon/implement feats specific to a given weaplement or weapon/implement set that's the place to look.

Examining feats.part, I noticed that some feats are in the file twice. For example, Divine Healer, Expanded Spellbook, and Beast Rider among others. I guess that these feats have been in feats.part before the new short descriptions were added, and when the new short descriptions were added, they became included second time. The latter instances seem to be the ones with the new short descriptions. Someone should probably eliminate the double instances by copying the new short description to the first instance of the feat and then deleting the second one. I can do this and submit the corrected file if it's ok to the "dudes".

Ok, here's a new one I'm struggling with... I'm trying to create a feat that masquerades as a different feat for prerequisite purposes, but doesn't grant any of the additional benefits of the 2nd feat. Specifically, I would like to code up a 'Deva Blooded' feat, that would meet prerequisites as if it were Deva Heritage (for things like Heavenly Heritage or Radiant Recovery), but does not grant any other benefits. So far, the following: code:<grant name="ID_INTERNAL_COUNTSASFEAT_DEVA_HERITAGE" type="CountsAsFeat" /> -- does nothing; does not allow taking of dependent feats. Apparently COUNTSASFEAT is a no-go. <grant name="Deva Heritage" type="Feat" /> -- actually grants the Deva Heritage feat; not desired <grant name="Deva Heritage" type="Internal" /> -- seemingly does nothing; does not allow dependent feats <textstring name="Deva Heritage" value="You count as having the Deva Heritage feat for the purpose of meeting prerequisites" /> -- does nothing <statadd name="ID_FMP_FEAT_1347" value="+1" /> <statadd name="ID_FMP_FEAT_1347" value="Deva Heritage" /> --both of these also do nothing I'm almost positive using ID_INTERNAL_COUNTSASRACE_DEVA in a grant would work, insofar as it would make the character count as a deva for prerequisite purposes. However, that's not quite the same as having the Deva Heritage feat - actually being a deva opens up a little more than just having the heritage feat. So I'm stumped on what to try next. Any suggestions? EDIT: I just tried adding the internal ID of the original feat (what I want to masquerade AS) to the Category tag of my feat, but that didn't work either. neils123 fucked around with this message at 08:42 on Sep 2, 2011 |

Question: If a feat is both in bug-fixes.part and feats.part, which one takes precedence while merging? There are many feats that appear in both files now. Which instance should we use? Is bug-fixes.part even necessary? Why aren't those elements in their respective part files to prevent double instances (so all bug fixed feats would be in feats.part, for example)?

neils123 posted:So I'm stumped on what to try next. Any suggestions? Well, it's amazing what a good night's sleep can do for one's creativity. Coming back to this problem in the fresh light of the morning, I poked around the wiki at some examples, and while there was nothing that specifically addressed this need, it nevertheless got me thinking outside the box. The issue is that the various things that require Deva Heritage in fact require an attribute named "Deva Heritage", not a particular internal ID. So all I needed to do was code my feat to grant such an attribute. I was on the right track when I tried to do <grant name="Deva Heritage" type="Internal" />, but I guess Internal is a special thing, and doesn't really work that way. So, I thought, well, what about granting a racial feature, with the NAME "Deva Heritage", that did nothing at all. Thus, granting the character taking my feat an attribute named Deva Heritage, but not granting him any particular powers, feats, etc. Lo and behold, it works! I can't imagine this is a very common need, but just in case anyone ever needs to do the same thing (create a feat/class feature/racial feature that, among what it does is masquerade as some other thing for prerequisite purposes), here's the final code as an example: code:

Sakri posted:Question: If a feat is both in bug-fixes.part and feats.part, which one takes precedence while merging? There are many feats that appear in both files now. Which instance should we use? OMG! I am going to start call you Feat Man! Yes, bug-fixes.part is needed. In theory, before anyone adds something that updates old content they are supposed to check bug-fixes.part for any fixes by the community here. I am sure it is not always being done but it should be done. Several fixes lately were broken because folks weren't checking but I think most people are aware of this now and I believe most of them are corrected again. According to the original plan your many feat updates should have went into bug-fixes.part since it was a correction and not a real game update. This obviously didn't happen. It is not the end of the world or anything. Having them in the feat part file is fine. Especially since you seem intent on rewriting every feat on the planet! If you really want to be proactive and a good researcher then: 1. Download PartHelper to use to search your combined file. I use it all the time as a search engine. The other features aren't really finished but it is great for searching. It will show you the ultimate final version of an element. Check that version against the one you wish to update. Some elements get multiple updates. The XML shown in Part Helper should be the final XML. 2. You can also use Notepad++ in the same way. First close all files open in Notepad++. Go to your %AppData%\CBloader directory and right-click on combined.dnd40.main and edit it in Notepad++ (this file is the unmodified original). Then go to the directory with your WotC main part files and select all 41 part files and right click and edit them in Notepad++. You will now have 42 files open in Notepad++. You can then use the drop down menu to search through all 42 files for elements. If you find more than one copy of an element the one that counts is the one from the file with the higher number. Having a feat in bug-fixes and one in feats shouldn't hurt anything but it will use the XML from the feat file. In most cases the uploader is probably going to check your submission against bugfixes (to make sure the fixes are included) and may delete it from bug-fixes when they add it to feats. They may not delete it as well. The truth of the matter is that version 1.3.0 of CBLoader is so amazingly fast it hardly matters if there are a couple of data "doubles" out there. It is best not to have them of course. Keep up the good work but all 3000 feats don't need a new description. neils123 posted:Ok, here's a new one I'm struggling with... OK.

It is going to be a lot easier than the way you are trying to do it.

Particularly because I also want to distribute the .part file to some other players in this particular campaign, and not have them have to edit their combined files. Or.... are you suggesting that I re-write the end-line feats with the modified prerequisites into my .part file, and in such fashion overwrite them in the CB? Hmm.. what I have I've tested and definitely works, but that might be cleaner in the long run. I'll play with that this weekend. Thanks for the insight.

Particularly because I also want to distribute the .part file to some other players in this particular campaign, and not have them have to edit their combined files. Nah. Don't be afraid to house rule some stuff. Especially stranger feats. That is really what CBLoader is for! You put all your campaign modifications into your campaign part (which I am sure you already have). Name it with a number higher than 50 so it compiles after the official stuff. My part files kind-of look like this: 0 to 40 the normal stuff 70's generic 3rd party stuff I use (customized a little) 80's campaign specific parts I have made 90's my house rules Advanced Comment Starting with version 1.3.0 you can actually keep two different combined files on the same computer and have it actually work if you set up some configuration files and different directories. So if you really wanted to have a "Clean" version with just the official main files you can and then also have your customized campaign files. You can get really advanced and store your customized campaign part files (and one copy of the main files) in a Drop Box Folder. Keep your campaign work files in a separate Drop Box Folder. Share those two folders with your players and then e-mail them a copy of your new configuration file. Then when you run CBLoader with that configuration file it will update on your computer and change the files for all shared Drop Box folders (so in theory your player's wouldn't even have to run merges, except when a normal update happened. And even then they could run the merge for you if they beat you to it.)

And I believe I have already rewritten all the feat descriptions now that I submitted the remaining Dark Sun feats yesterday .

Not sure if it was mentioned in the previous thread, but I didn't see it anywhere in this one: apparently the LCB doesn't understand the prereq "Any shadow power", because my Bladesinger (who has both the Spook cantrip and the Twilight Falls encounter power) isn't being given the option to take the Spectral Step feat, which has that as its only prereq. A quick test in the online builder shows it allowing the feat with the same character (minus Spook, since WotC's data entry monkeys apparently didn't realize Bladesingers can take the cantrips from Heroes of Shadow).

Changes to Feats.part Because I'm a giant lazy rear end, I like to have my feats show up on my power cards (especially when they apply to some but not all of my powers). Enlarge spell and Psychic Lock now do just that. Please provide feedback for the wording - I had to kludge the psychic lock a bit, because the builder will automatically put "to attack rolls" after the -2.

Enlarge spell info is appearing on all arcane at will and encounter power cards, not just burst and blasts. To be honest I think that something like this that is a personal preference shouldn't be included in the default setup. Would you be able to do it in a way that it only appears as like a house rule or something? Not sure I'm a big fan of the new "short" feat descriptions - in a lot of cases the whole feat text is now in the feat description

I'd say that the average compression ratio was about 50%. I find it more important to not have to refer to a book or the program during play than to keep the feat descriptions minimally short and inaccurate, even misleading. Also, many feats lacked short description altogether, but all should have one now. If you have difficulty in fitting the descriptions in the usual space, just unlock panels and draw the feat box on blank page. You can create new blank pages from one of the menus. I am also willing to shorten the descriptions further by introducing more abbreviations like modifier -> mod. and adjacent -> adj. Would people like this?

Also, shouldn't the secondary benefit be what appears in the Additional Effects section of the power cards? Right now it's displaying the actual feat bonus to attack rolls.

Tivaan, for the D402 feats, each entry shows up twice on the Character Sheet. I noticed that each feat gives an additional feat which duplicates the short description. Why is that? EDIT: these feats might be beyond the capabilities of the offline builder. They have no capacity to determine what is being wielded, save for detecting if something is not being wielded in the off hand, or the type of armor that someone has on.

Noticed two bugs tonight: the level 10 bite power for the Dead Rat Deserter is simply repeating the text of the hybrid form transformation power, and the Arena Training Fighter build isn't properly assigning the feat bonuses to all the trained weapons. Major thanks to you guys for maintaining this! It's head and shoulders above anything Wizards is putting out.

As coded they will definitely show up twice and I am not sure why this approach was taken. Also these feats are giving blanket bonuses to everything without regard to requirements. For example: White Lotus Dueling Expertise feat as written is going to give the feat bonus to all powers regardless of whether they are arcane or not. This would be an issue for magic item powers, multiclass and hybrid characters, skill powers, and theme powers just to name a few. Having just read the Dragon Article this seems to be another il-conceived article in the flavor of the Essential Hybrid Playtest. Quality and thoughtfulness of Dragon Articles are definitely at an all-time low. Consider the follow XML for White Lotus Dueling Expertise to fix it up a little: code:Also Dwarven Rod Expertise I would consider changing the conditional bonus in that feat to a real one like: <statadd name="Mace:attack" value="+1" type="Feat" /> <statadd name="Mace:attack" value="+2" type="Feat" requires="11 level" /> <statadd name="Mace:attack" value="+3" type="Feat" requires="21 level" /> Greyhawk Fan fucked around with this message at 11:38 on Sep 4, 2011 |
