Jul 26, 2009 13:42:38 Right now, the Campaign Settings tab allows you to choose allowed/disallowed source books. However all this does is set what elements will trigger the house rules flag. It would be great if this could also be used to filer choices shown when you're choosing a feat/power.

This is the single biggest problem with the charter creator right now for me. I have a new (to D&D) player and I'd like him to be able to sit down and choose feats without seeing a few hundred from Dragon we're not using in the game.

Click on the top Manage tab, then campaign settings and deselect that which you don't want, and then save the settings.

When making a new character, make sure to load the settings before making the character.

Jul 28, 2009 12:42:05 there needs to be a place to share campaign files... so that it's easier to know whats legit in the campaign...

currently when you are modifying campaign settings... if you turn off a race, all of that races powers and feats are still available, its very annoying to go entry by entry to see what pertains to that unchecked race box... it is very monotonous, but can be done... maybe this area needs some update love as well as the homebrew/houserule stuff!!
