D&D 5E MPMB's D&D 5e Character Tools

[morepurplemorebetter]

A few days without internet because I was moving house, but now I'm back!

(...)I have selected the Outlander / Exile or Outcast background.(...)

Do take note that only the word "outlander" is recognized as the background. So if you used just the word "exile" or "outcast" you would get none of the outlander features. If this wasn't the issue than I'm unsure of what went wrong.

(...)nothing happens when I press the extra features button. :s

Edit: Nevermind, I clicked the print button and it gave the option to clear all the filled portions of the sheet.

The "extra features" button will only work if you are using Adobe Acrobat XI or DC. It creates and extra window called "Javascript-window" which might appear anywhere (so maybe it is on the edge of your screen). Also, all the function buttons are available in the bookmarks section as well

@Athinar: Thank you for responding to the questions people have concerning the sheet, I'm sure you've helped them a lot!

Just dropping by to let you know that some items like the Ring of Protection (+1 AC, +1 Saves) are ... not very well handled by the sheet. Right now, the only way to have the bonuses are to put a Ring of Protection in one of the defense rows for the AC breakdown, and to use hidden modifiers to add a +1 bonus to each individual saves.

Adding a "saving throw" bonus somewhere (possibly below the Saving throw column) would make things a lot simpler.

 

[Athinar]

Rings of Protection and Cloaks of Protection add both to AC and saves, but there is a limited space on the sheet so maybe there could a check box (non-printable) but how many other magic items have modifications to fields? Does MorePurple make checkboxes for them all? Or do we do some of the entries by hand?

Eldritch Blast ends up with kind of misleading text - as an example, my Warlock at 5th does 1d10+4 damage per beam. But it lists it as being 2d10+4, which it will never be. It should list the damage as 1d10+4 and say something to the effect of:
"2 beams, each does 1d10+4, requiring separate rolls"

Is Bard actually complete in 6.91? The only features that are showing up at lvl 3 are Spellcasting and Bonus Proficiencies. Nothing about BI, Combat BI, Jack of All Trades, etc.

 

[Athinar]

I have a copy of The Beta that will be edited by MorePurple that it does have all Features and subclasses

Just an FYI: Your description says that it requires Adobe Acrobat/Reader. I've been using it with FoxIt Reader, which actually works a ton better than Adobe Reader; I can save the characters for later editing, for free.

Also: Thanks for the awesome sheet.

Adobe Reader XI also allows you to save a copy. Check your version. Also, I find that when I'm in an editable field, I have to click into an open space before the option to save becomes available. Give that a try.

I'm surprised FoxIt is working for you...it never seemed to work for me. Odd.

One person in my group is having a problem with FoxIt. Maybe I'll have him try Reader XI.

Great idea! I made it a new addition in v6.95, with a 'bluetext' field where you can add a variable to all saves/skills at once

"2 beams, each does 1d10+4, requiring separate rolls"

Good catch! I had already changed this in the spell sheet generator, but had not implemented anything in the character sheet. This is a new addition in v6.95.

My last update of the state of the classes was for v6.93, but that version never made it online The bard is complete in v6.95.

Most functions will probably work fine in FoxIt Reader, but some will not (like making the "extra features" menu). This is why I recommend using the Adobe software. As Ohillion said, you should be able to use Acrobat Reader to save the sheet without issue (I have tested this with Acrobat Reader XI and DC).
