Yeah, the whole "things from chronicle sheets" does make it complicated.

How hard would it be to add to the UI the ability to add a custom thing? That is, a wildcard feat/trait/item/etc. My understanding is that right now if you want to add something custom, you have to create and add a source file. If you made it possible for people to patch in custom things, that could become the "documented" way to handle things in the Core campaign that come off of chronicle sheets.

You can add the Chronicle sheets separately if you go to the Advanced tab when selecting sources. I've set mine now to cover Core, Guide to Organised Play, Web Supplement and Chronicle Sheets. Imported various characters and haven't noticed anything broken yet.


A finial chime in on this. If you really want to tweak this you can edit pathfinder_character_traits_abilities.lst in the Web Supplement folder and remove the ones you can't take. I'd save a copy before playing with deleting stuff from the doc as it would be easy peasy to break.


I'm new to PCGen and Pathfinder but needed to find a quick solution to this as I have a game fast approaching and don't want to hold my group back putting in traits later. What I did... If this is stepping on anyones toes please let me know...

For all instances of ******* replace with user name. Here goes.

Copy the file

C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\PCGen\PCGen60401\data\35e\paizo\web_enhancem ents\

Place it in

C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\PCGen\PCGen60401\data\pathfinder_pfs\paizo

Once you've done that go to

C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\PCGen\PCGen60401\data\pathfinder_pfs\paizo\w eb_enhancements\pathfinder_character_traits_web_enhancement

Open file pathfinder_character_traits.pcc in Notepad about 4 lines down you'll see GAMETYPE:35e replace 35e with Pathfinder and save the document.

This will allow you to open the web supplement along with the Core Rulebook and PFS stuff.

Now if you add Player Character Traits from the template section you will be able to pick traits as required.

Hope that helps. Hope I didn't break any rules doing so.

Edited for formatting, it seems to have stuck a couple of spaces in the pathname s which I can't find to edit. Also added final step. CM
