Adding a unique sword
Here Now
I have been adding some special magic items to the .lst files for the Adventure Path I am currently running. I am running into a problem with a special sword though. Its a +1 undead bane mithral rapier, with some other bonuses (saving throws and a once/day
magic effect) that would just be noted in the description. However, I am doing something wrong because it won't show up in PCGen. I'm using 6.06.00 RC3.
The block is under this heading: ####Block: Melee Weapons
# Equipment Name
Required Weapon Proficiency
Type Cost
Weight Crit Mult
Crit Range Damage
Modifier Wield Category
Size Source Page
Special Property
The block I have tried to add reads as:
Fangalor
PROFICIENCY:WEAPON|Longsword
TYPE:Weapon.Resizable.Melee.Martial.Specific.Slashing.Sword
COST:9320 WT:2
CRITMULT:x2 CRITRANGE:3
DAMAGE:1d6 EQMOD:MAGIC_COST|8250.PLUS2W.STEEL
WIELD:OneHanded
SIZE:M SOURCEPAGE:p.62
SPROP:+2 resistance bonus to all saves against negative energy and level drain. User can make two Fort saves to recover from a negative level, taking the better of the two results. Once per day, when it critically hits an undead creature, it can target
the undead creature with a halt undead effect (Will DC 14 negates) as a swift action.
I was just going to add this then in PCGen add the +1 bane undead and mithral qualities. I know the PCGen guys are really busy, but even a quick suggestion might help.

Re: Where are the outputsheet headlines to be found?
Hi,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
look in the outputsheets/commonblocks All the headers and values are input there. I set it up to be easier. We are working towards localization support in the future. If you want something specific ask and Ill get an answer to you. Still at work though. Cheers, Andrew

I think that's right. In the block_stat_block.xlst file that writes out the stat block, it seems to be getting the stat name from something called stat.title or name/short and name/long.
<fo:table-cell> <xsl:call-template name="attrib"> <xsl:with-param name="attribute" select="'stat.title'"/> </xsl:call-template> <fo:block line-height="10pt" font-weight="bold" font-size="10pt" space-before="1pt"> <xsl:value-of select="name/short"/> </fo:block> <fo:block line-height="4pt" font-size="4pt"> <xsl:value-of select="name/long"/> </fo:block> </fo:table-cell

I tried sorting out where/how the XML
output sheets did things, but it didn't take me long to give up.
:-) Maybe I'll give it another try soon. I think you need to look someplace like pcgen/outputsheets/d20/fantasy/pdf/common_sheet and look for all the tags. DS/DL

oe.oe@...
On the output sheets there are some "headlines" and "explanations" texts, for example it explicitly says "Player Name" somewhere below this field. There is also the Attribute "STR" printed in lager letters before the value for strength.
Looking into both the xslt and the base.xml files I only found logic and variables, but not these descriptive texts. I do want to create a translated version of a charcater sheet, so I need to be able to change the "skills" headline to "Fertigkeiten" for example. I just don't know where to look. Any hints?

Missing word wrap on .pdf output sheets
oe.oe@...
Hi,
I have to field on the output sheet where there seems to be missing an auto word wrap. One is the big title of the weapon box. I have a "Masterwork Lucerne Hammer [Power Attack]" entry and it pirnts all over the place. Second is the Special properties field below the weapon box which spills over due to me havin enter a multi line explanation text regarding the weapon special properties. The exact same work nicely within PCGen using the standard.html.ftl preview sheet, but not in csheet_fantasy_std_green_light.xslt

Non-Ascii chars on output sheet?
oe.oe@...
Is there a smart way of bringing non-ascii characters such as ä, ö, ü onto the output sheets?

Re: "-" in outputsheets turns to "#"

Ok, I rewrote it carefully typing the minus sign and now it works.

As the guy who routinely has to clean our own data I can guarantee it is a non ascii character issue. '-' is the ascii minus sign, what we use for a dash. '–' basic emdash '—' big emdash notice the difference. Only one will output, the rest default to a hashtag or octothorpe symbol. Cheers, Andrew

Re: "-" in outputsheets turns to "#"

Hi,
I am quite sure it's not a a character typing issue, as it appears in my homebrewn data file "mpc_feats.lst" The relevant bit here is: "BENEFIT: Du kannst waehlen, einen Malus von –%1 auf alle Nahkampf-Angriffswuerfe und Kampfmanoever-Wuerfe zu erhalten. Dafuer gewinnst du einen Bonus von +%2 auf alle Nahkampf-Schadenswuerfe. Dieser Schadensbonus erhoeht sich nochmal um die Haelfte (+50%%), wenn du eine zweihaendige Waffe, eine einhaendige mit zwei Haenden gefuehrte Waffe oder eine natuerliche Waffe verwendest, die einen 1,5-fachen Staerke-Modifikator auf den Schadenswurf verleiht. Umgekehrt wird der Schadensbonus halbiert, wenn der Angriff mit einer Zweithandwaffe oder einer natuerlichen Zweitwaffe ausgefuehrt wird. Wenn dein Grund-Angriffsbonus +4 erreicht und fuer jede +4 danach erhoeht sich der Malus um weitere minus 1 und der Schadensbonus um weitere +2. Du musst dich vor dem Angriffswurf entscheiden, ob du dieses Talent einsetzen moechtest. Seine Wirkung dauert bis zu deinem naechsten Zug an. Der Bonusschaden gilt nicht fuer Beruehrungsangriffe oder Effekte, die keinen Trefferpunkteschaden verursachen.|1+BAB/4|2*floor(1+BAB/4)" Now the "von -%1 auf" turns into "von #1 auf" on the outputsheet, while "Bonus von +%2 auf" correctly is printed as "Bonus von +2 auf". The outputsheet used is csheet_fantasy_std_grey_light.xslt in PCGen 6.06.00. Mode is Pathfinder.

Re: "-" in outputsheets turns to "#"
Hi,

It is likely another character, like an emdash. It is not an ascii character which is why the putput is off. Simply find the character and type the minus and save, should fix it. Which feat is causing the problem? I will fix it in the release. Cheers, Andrew

"-" in outputsheets turns to "#"
oe.oe@...
Hi, just a simple question: how can I avoid that a "-" (minus) in a text shown on an outputsheet turns into a "#"? This currently happens to a "benefits" text for a feat on a .pdf output sheet.

Hi,
any short hint, how I can avoid a text containing a minus "-" to be outputted as "#" in pdf?

familiar output missing
dave_the_ferret
Greetings, I'm using the latest autobuild (6.07.00), and just realised that I'm not getting the familiar stat box output with my character - previously if a wizard and familiar were both loaded, and the wizard was output, the familiars stats would be output onto the OS for the wizard. Is that an intentional removal, or a bug? Cheers Dave

Gen Con 2016 here we come!
An update on the #GenCon2016 booth. Open Gaming Design (John Reyst of d20pfsrd.com & 5esrd.com) and we still owe $850 USD by 04/22. PCGen currently has approximately $170 USD, which is short of the $425 for our portion. Not to mention any incidentals that always crop up. Should you wish to donate to help the project spread the user base you can use the link below. Alternately if you do not want to use Paypal, contact me directly and we'll arrange another avenue, either another payment service or you can mail a check. --Paul Grosse --PCGen PR Silverback

Re: 6.06.00 Mac version
Ryan Johnston
Andrew is correct. The most recent release of PCGen will run just fine on a mac. Here are the steps to get the software running on a Mac: 1. Download and extract project from this URL: https://github.com/PCGen/pcgen/releases/download/6.06.00/pcgen-6.06.00-full.zip 2. Navigate to extracted folder 3. double-click pcgen.jar Notes: You might get some warnings about opening software downloaded from the Internet. Go ahead and open it. You might need to make sure that "Allow apps downloaded from 'Anywhere'". That setting is in System Preferences->General ------ If you want to download and compile the development version (currently at 6.06.00 RC3), download the zip file here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pcgen/files/PCGen%20Unstable/6.06.00RC3/pcgen-6.06.00RC3-full.zip/download And follow the instructions from the wiki to build the jar: http://wiki.pcgen.org/Building_PCGen#Building_for_Mac Thanks, - Ryan Johnston
