Turns out I made a mistake that crippled the Colourful versions of the sheet, specifically the Letter version and the right column of the second page. Thus a very quick update to patch these problems.

Changelog for MPMB's Character Record Sheet v12.993 (5 June 2017):
• Fixed some big problems with the fields for Feats on the Colourful-Letter 2nd page (thanks Eric K. for reporting);
• Changed the secondary drop-down box for the Dragon Casualty to show Origin along with the optional Disfigurement (thanks Adam B. for reporting);
• Removed any duplicates from the Subclass Selection dialogue (thanks Eric K. for reporting);
• Made the Feats prerequisite test listen to the ‘ignorePrereqs’ variable and also removed pop-ups about not meeting prereqs when importing a character (thanks Eric K. for reporting);
• Updated the FAQ.

The formatting for the import dialog (on Mac at least) is slightly off causing the text to be slightly cut off.

Thank you for reporting this. As I said previously, I have no way of testing how the dialogues look on Mac so things like this are bound to happen. On Windows the dialogue looks fine. I'll try to fix it in the next version.

Is there a way to manually set a skill check to showing Advantage or Disadvantage? If not I think this would be a good addition down the line. Items like Boots of Elvenkind that give Adv to Stealth will need this.

This is a feature on the Colourful sheets, that have checkboxes for advantage and disadvantage for every skill, save, initiative, and for attacks. On the Printer Friendly sheet this was not something that I could make work in an aesthetically pleasing way. The [disadv.] for the stealth skill is a workaround just for armour, as it is such a common thing, but this won't fit for all the skills.

Is there somewhere I can click to add multiple magic item overflow pages or does the sheet currently limit that?

Interesting issue in using the Character sheet in Linux. It will run quite well with Adobe DC installed with PlayOnLinux. This is a front end to the Wine Windows Emulator - Whew!. I am in the process of converting to linux. I am 90% there. The sheets have a font issue. Most of the fonts work just fine. It might just be one that is off. When I create a Bard for example, the Hover information shows up but the Font that says "bard" is boxes. This notes a missing or broken font. I can get screen shots to show this and I am willing to test any changes Not sure where you want images or if this is even something that is even worth bothering with. Oh and thanks for a GREAT sheet

You can't have multiple instances of the overflow page, that wouldn't interact well with feats, limited features, and proficiencies.

Great job getting Adobe Acrobat DC to work on Linux. It is too bad that Adobe pulled support for Linux. I'm not sure what exactly is having a font issue, is it the form field or the tooltip? All fonts that the sheet uses for the form fields are either included in the PDF or are a default font that is automatically included in any installation of Adobe. The exact font used for the fields depends on the type of the sheet that you are using, Colourful or Printer Friendly, and is Segoe Print or Segoe UI respectively. The sheet uses the same font for all the fillable fields. Also, you can change the font yourself using the "Text Options" button/bookmark, so perhaps you are using another font entirely. I have no specific preference for where to discuss these kind of things, but a forum is most often the easiest. The comment section here on Patreon is not the best place IMHO, because it has no options for formatting, posting pictures, dealing with long comments, using carriage returns, and simply has a terrible UI, but that is just my opinion. I would recommend using the ENworld thread about this sheet: <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?400044&goto=newpost" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?400044&goto=newpost</a>

I've discovered a bug in the Lore Master spell sheet. the 1st and 2nd spell slots are getting listed as being 8 and 6 spell slots, respectively. By the time you get up to lvl 6, 3rd level spell slots are calculated correctly, but it has way too many 1st and 2nd levels. it only seems to happen with the Lore Master, and not the normal wizard.

morepurplemorebetter

This is a bug that more people have reported with all different kind of class/subclass combinations. However, nobody has ever been able to help me to figure out how to reproduce it. Can you please tell me how to get this result with the sheet so that I can find and kill this bug? Because when I make a Lore Master, the spell slots turn out just fine.

Nick Wesselmann

Ah ha! I figured it out! Start off making any other kind of Wizard (I made abjuration) with random spells at lvl 4. Then delete the class and change to Lore Master, same lvl and random spells. This results in 8 1st lvl slots and 6 second lvl ones It looks like when you make a wizard it gives you your spell slots, and then when you delete your class to change it, it doesn't delete those slots so when you add in the new class it just adds the new slots on top of the old

morepurplemorebetter

That is great, thank you for your research into this issue! Now I was able to find the culprit and squash it like the bug it was. You can expect this to be fixed in the next version. The problem came from the fact that the class field was completely empty and the code then stopped before processing the change in spell slots. Thus the spell slots from the old class were never actually removed. I'm very happy this problem can finally be laid to rest. Many thanks for your help with this, I definitely wouldn't have found this problem on my own :)

Nick Wesselmann

Glad to help, I've got lots of free time at work so I just spent like an hour remaking sheets until I remembered that I had started with a different subclass at first

Hi, noticed a few grammar errors in the full text for the Suggestion spell, in the third paragraph. Five should be corrected to give and preformed should be corrected to performed.

Thank you for reporting these OCR issues, I will fix them in the next version!

Had an interesting reaction with the reset command. It started resetting, but as soon as it deleted level, the exp/level does not match warning window interrupted the process. Closing this window allows the reset to continue, but I assume this is not intended behavior.

I can't print since importing my data from .93 to .993. I get an error and then it says "no pages were selected". Using Printer-friendly (Redesign), Letter. No error popup for it. I get the same using Ctrl-P.

morepurplemorebetter

Sounds like you found an annoying little bug. However, I'm not able to reproduce this with v12.993 of the sheet. With which version and type (printer friendly, redesign, A4, Letter) do you experience this issue? Can you also reproduce this issue with the latest version (v12.993)?

morepurplemorebetter

That is a strange issue and sounds more like a problem with Adobe Acrobat than with my sheet. Would you mind sending a copy of the PDF with which you have this issue? I did some searches on this issue, and numerous people have had a similar problem with Adobe Acrobat that seems to be a weird glitch with the software. However, I only found this for older versions of Adobe Acrobat. Which version are you using, the latest version (DC 2017.009.20044)? You can find your Acrobat installation's version info at Help >> About Adobe Acrobat. I found some proposed solutions to this problem here, maybe those help? <a href="http://khkonsulting.com/2014/10/pages-selected-print-error/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://khkonsulting.com/2014/10/pages-selected-print-error/</a>

On the Wild Shapes page, the limitations box says CR 1/4 (at level 2) for Circle of the Moon Druids, Moon at level 2 gets CR 1. I have not investigated this beyond level 2.

Again, thank you for reporting by issues you find with the sheet! Is this with v12.993? Which type, Printer Friendly, Redesign, Colourful-A4, Colourful-Letter? I can't get the sheet (v12.993) to do this, can you walk me through how to recreate this issue? Note that previous versions had this issue.

Erik T.

This is in 12.993 with Printer Friendly. I'm not sure how I caused the problem, as now I'm unable to recreate it. Perhaps it was just user error somewhere along the way.

Erik T.

Is there a way to make the Renown total from the Adventurers Log link to the Renown field on the Background Sheet? Maybe as part of the things that happen when you select the League option from the top bar?

Chris Harding

I am using v12.993 Printer Friendly Redesign, Letter, and was able to reproduce it again. It seems it might have something to do with multiclass characters. When resetting a single classes char, it doesn't happen, but if I make a quick level 6, 3/3 in any 2 classes, and choose a race, resetting causes the interruption. It does not interrupt if 2 classes are selected but race is not selected yet. After verifying I could reproduce the error, I recorded it as well if it helps. Might be a bit blurry, my OBS settings are pretty much default. <a href="https://youtu.be/dw1vz9gkq0Q" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/dw1vz9gkq0Q</a>

Thank you for finding the way to reproduce this issue. With your help I was able to find the problem and remedy it. You can expect a fix for this issue in the next version! :)

morepurplemorebetter

There is no way to do this currently, but I do like this idea. I will include this in the next time vote for 'minor' features to be added :)
