bmos' extensions

[bmos]

I'm starting to have a lot of these and my signature is filling up! Taking a page from Kelrugem's book, here is a thread for all of my extensions and modules.

Each forum post has a few links. Here is an overview of what you will find on the Extension Homepage of each/most of them:
1. Overview / Description / Intro
2. Compatibility Notes (versions of FGC, FGU, and any extensions that have known issues)
3. Feature List
4. Video or Image Example
5. Full codebase. My extensions are loaded in the vault when installed via the Forge, but it isn't because I don't want to share the code.

Forge extensions gallery and donation link
If you want to see the code for my extensions (they are in the vault when downloaded from the Forge), check out my GitHub page.
From this code, you should be able to make edits as desired/needed. If you need me to make a change to make the extension more editable, reach out and I very well might.

Development Tools
Luacheck Configuration File <-- defines most/all global scoped objects, variables, etc. helps your IDE give better coding hints

Adopted Extensions
Customized Item Generator for 3.5E and Pathfinder [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] [README] <-- Simple generator for magic items and consumables (scrolls, wands, and potions)
Advanced Item Actions (formerly Advanced Character Inventory Manager) [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] [README] <-- automatically add/remove spell class for wands/scrolls/potions when equipping/un-equipping
Advanced Effects for 3.5E and Pathfinder [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] [README] <-- Attach effects to PCs, NPCs and items.
Party Inventory Identified [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] <-- easier way to see what items are ID'd
Enhanced Items v4 [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] <-- add additional useful fields to item sheet
Aura Effects [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] <-- add/remove effects based on token proximity
Moon Tracker [FG Forge] [ext files and changelog] <-- automatically track phases of the moon(s) based on in-game calendar

Future Goals (no promises -- feel free to steal these ideas):

• Invisibility that applies to allies without see invisibility (hello area-effect friendly fire ) [NOT YET POSSIBLE]
• 'Fake' unidentified costs
• Random encounter treasure parcel generator.

For anyone who wants to get notified whenever I post new releases of any of my extensions that you use, here are instructions.

How can you help?
If you like my work and wish you could help/contribute in some way (other than code which you are also welcome to contribute to--via GitHub or direct message/my threads), consider creating a new/empty campaign and trying to break them/test them thoroughly.
I do put in effort to think of 'edge cases', but there are always more that are un-handled; reporting any script errors or strange behavior that arise during your use is greatly appreciated and goes a long way to help improve the reliability of these extensions for yourself and others.

Excellent!

Thank you very much for your work, these are amazing!

If you have a suggestion for a new extension, this would be a great place to put it (although I may not have time/interest; no promises!).

PFRPG Total Encumbrance Extension
PFRPG Live Hitpoints from Constitution Extension
PFRPG Sanity Tracker Extension
PFRPG Spell Formatting Extension
PFRPG Disease Tracker Extension
PFRPG Item Durability Extension

I could see making saving-throws for a fireball!

A while back I made a spreadsheet to calculate Hardness and Hitpoints of items. Here it is.

Hardness and Hitpoints.zip

It would be cool to generate these numbers automatically. When I created "+1 Breastplate" with custom item generator for example afterward I use spreadsheet and calculate a Hardness of 12 and Hit Points of 15 for a metal breastplate +1.

Now we have a spot to enter the cool information.

"bmos" thanks much.

I would love to do something like this, but I can't imagine how it would work without making a database of materials used to make different items.
Currently I've been focusing on broken weapon/armor penalties (just finished with weapons), but let me know if you have ideas on how hardness can be calculated.

The only thought that comes to mind is the "CustomisedItemGenerator modified.ext" extension by rmilmine based on Faelwen's "CustomisedItemGenerator.ext". It only modifies weapons and armor, but Special Materials and Size are incorporated in the item creation process. The only thing that I don't see consistently in current items is the type of categories mentioned in the damaging items page.

The data in the "Type" and/or "Subtype" field may have to be referenced or overwritten with values in the "Table: Common Armor, Weapon, and Shield Hardness and Hit Points" for example. It almost seems like a separate field may be needed, because "Subtype" field is also used to describe weapon types in terms of "Simple", Martial" or "Exotic". I hope that helps.

P.S. The guidance for other items like rings, bracers etc., seems to be worse, the only table that I would use to start the calculation is the "Table: Substance Hardness and Hit Points" plus add bonuses for pluses?

Also a question, do special weapon qualities such as "Keen", "Vorpal", etc., add bonuses to item hitpoints and hardness, I only see the "enhancement bonus" mentioned?

Until I have a way to auto-generate hardness and hitpoints, I'm not automating any bonuses to those numbers (since you'll be filling them in manually anyway).
I could auto-fill a few of the items on the list, based on their names, but it would be a drop in the bucket compared to the total number of items that exist.
The thought of sorting what weapons are One-handed hafted weapon vs Two-handed hafted weapon vs Light hafted weapon vs One-handed metal-hafted weapon vs Light metal-hafted weapon vs Two-handed blade vs One-handed blade vs Light blade vs Projectile weapon (and the same type of thing for all armor types) is not appealing to me.

If someone wants to make spreadsheets of everything, I'll consider implementing it, but without such labor-intensive efforts I just don't see a favorably rules-compliant solution beyond having fields for material and weapon type that generate the result when you fill them out. Would that be easier/helpful?

I think I've figured out a good solution!
Just putting some finishing touches on it now.

Very nice!
