When you do fix this will it count against my downloads? *edit* Things are a little different than what I am use too.. Seems only the background is wrong..
#2 darth_azalin Aug 04, 2009 16:34:49	*edit*
#3 sirvimes Aug 04, 2009 16:37:48	The bug fix after last months update did not count against the number of downloads. I see no reason why that would not be the same. As far as the powers, you may need to unlearn a power to be able to learn a higher level power.
#4 dalzig Aug 04, 2009 17:03:53	Each time they upload a new update, everyone's download limit is reset to 5.
#5 darth_azalin Aug 04, 2009 17:43:16	The workaround only lets you see them... I tried taking the ones from Scales of War where you can swap the highest score with Con for HPs... No change.. So there is no workaround.

So there is no workaround. You have to select the particular benefit at the top of the Background Benefit section of the Backgrounds screen.

#8 SavageCheater Aug 04, 2009 17:48:23	I've experienced three or four crashes while selecting backgrounds as well. Aside from the background problem, has anyone noticed any stability with the program? Its been extra slow loading and laggy on my computer were it normally runs just fine.
#9 sirvimes Aug 04, 2009 17:49:11	So what you stated in the above is moot. Works just fine for me. I was able to make an Eladrin Wizard with the Auspicious Lineage background and have 30 HP at first level with a 20 Intelligence.
#10 superdeadsmurf Aug 04, 2009 17:55:02	I rarely use the 'choose' button anyway, so I would likely have missed the crash bug completely. More annoying the builder and compendium don't seem to have Khybers Harvest stuff (Symbiotes) and Seekers of the Ashen Crown Stuff in it (The Ashen crown as an artifact at least...)

#12 sirvimes Aug 04, 2009 18:05:38	Elven Ranger with Born under the bad sign 22 Hps at first level with a 20 Dex. Same, same, 32 hit points with 20 Dex. Select Elf Select Ranger, Archery Style Select Born Under A Bad Sign Now that a background has been selected, another section in Background Choices will be shown. This section is called Background Benefit (optional). Select Born Under A Bad Sign Benefit under the Background Benefit section Proceed to Ability Scores
#13 SavageCheater Aug 04, 2009 18:23:48	Didn't get the extra language out of my FR background even with the work around to avoid the crash. But I suppose the problem is a whole lot bigger than individual background coding so I'm not sure how useful siting specific examples is.

But I suppose the problem is a whole lot bigger than individual background coding so I'm not sure how useful siting specific examples is. Make sure to look at the very top of the Backgrounds section and select that regions benefit under Background Benefit(optional). You will only get the benefit from a background if you do that, otherwise it does not register. I toyed around with a couple regions and the additional language did show up when I selected that regions background benefit.
#15 The_Architect Aug 04, 2009 19:23:48	A hot fix is now live that solves the background choose button crash. Key count usage is reset with the update so you will not lose any key usages.
#16 PinkRose Aug 04, 2009 20:06:33	...being pushed live... ...will not lose... I appreciate the update. Just helping clarify your message.
#17 dustmanexe Aug 04, 2009 20:54:46	Although it is good that the Warden Hybrid can now choose between Fort and Will for its bonus (I honestly can't remember what it did before, but I'm guessing it got nothing), now it also gets a bonus Warden class skill. The new text there regarding "Trained Skills" doesn't actually say it gets get a bonus skill, but now it does. It should be noted that, in the playtest article the rules come from, the Warden gets no bonus skills. Is this an unannounced buff to Warden Hybrid skills? Either way, something is wrong with that half-class, be it function or text.
#18 The_Architect Aug 05, 2009 10:31:38	Thanks Rose. I have edited my post. I had reworded it so many times that I got my phrasing messed up.
