PAR5E Tutorial

[Magnav0x]

Hi guys!

I wanted to add a custom race to a Rar5e module and ran into a problem.
I tried putting this line in:

#!;Ability Score Increase. Your Ability Scores each increase by 2.

but it only increases the ability scores +1 since the race is called Human.


I also tried to add a subrace for my custom elven race:
#s;Elf from Caras Galadhon.
#!;Elven-Senses. You grew up in co-existens with nature. The wood help sharpening your sences.
Your Perception score increases by 2.

My problem is that:
I do not know how I tell Fantasy Grounds that I have a new Trait which is for example called "Elven-Senses" and that it has to increase Perception by 2.

@tsemana, Thanks for reaching out to OBS about the UA stuff. Makes sense about conversions. I had never thought of it in that regards but was familiar with all the other aspects of DMsG publishing.

FYI, DMsG takes a 50% cut of the sales price. DriveThruRPG takes a 30 or 35% depending upon exclusivity. So, basically you loose 20% by using the DMsG and you gain the ability to use much of the WotC product identity.

I'm a total Par5e novice and I'm trying to add new archetypes. I have the base document but when I try to parse it I get the following errors

Parse : class .................................................. ................ [Invalid Path - WARNING]
Cook : module archive .................................................. ............. [Failed - WARNING]

I'm thinking in order to add archetypes I need to include the original class info but before I enter the new data but I want to verify this first.

Let me add due to the discussions about copyright this is just for me and my group.

Thankye

Yeah, no problem @LordEntrails. It was a gray area for me so worth asking directly. Nickademus has posted the UA ranger on there just yesterday so <shrug>.

Question here on PAR5E. Is there a way to get the cool sidebar styling and table background image as seen in the WotC-published material's Reference Books into our PAR5Ed modules?

No, that's not included in the public version of par5e.

The invalid path warning is caused because par5e can't find the file you want to par5e. So either it's the wrong filename or it's in the wrong place.

As kp9911 says, you can't do it in the version of Par5E we have available. But, I have seen others mention that you can do it manually in the xml itself. Note, that it is only available in the Reference Module portions, and not in Story or other entries.

Thanks, and confirmed;

You can go into the xml and, only within the `<referencemanual>` tags, manually adjust any blocktype `text` and add a `<frame>` tag that dictates the enclosing style.

Thanks LordEntrails

It will eventually come to fg5eparser however it's gonna take some time.

No, that's not included in the public version of par5e.

Can I infer that there is a non-public version I could purchase?
