Protos.tab Fields - Page 2

Col 6 is a percentage size of the model. So > 100 means you want a model larger than normal size (eg Thrommel), < 100 means smaller (eg Kent, or the tailor). Sometimes models differ drastically, eg kobolds are 40% lizardmen, dragons are c200% ice lizards, that sort of thing.

I suppose if the value is left blank then it means 100% by default.

More questions:
1. Also, which column corresponds to the characters' level?
2. Column 26 is used just once. Do you think this is merely a mistake?
3. Are the start-of-game PCs also listed in protos?

!00% and size_medium is the default for humans. The % of model effects their appearance in-game. A person at 150% would appear very large and at 50%, very small, like a halfling. Class and level are seperate on their own. There's 5 slots for class/level so you can multi-class. PC's aren't implemented. The authour was going to update it but he moved over to the Witcher scene. I haven't seen a post of his in a long time. He said anyone should feel free to update, correct as they please.

What levels are monsters though? They tend not to have levels in any any class.

Monster hitdice are set for each type of monster and their CR ratings. It's all in protos.

I haven't been able to replicate these problems you're having with the Holy Ranseur, SharkD: it seems to have a long reach from what I can see.

You are correct. I didn't notice it until I'd used it for a while.

I think column 130 is the creature's reach (i.e. for natural attacks like bite or claw).

Column 35 (creature size) doesn't seem to match RAW for some reason.

[edit]
Column 161 is Natural AC.

[edit]
Column 158 is Reflex Save (including DEX modifier).
Column 159 is Fortitude Save (including CON modifier).
Column 160 is Will Save (including WIS modeifier).

Is there some good reason to use ProtoEd over WorldBuilder for this stuff? ProtoEd was great for its day, but ...

I was just using a spreadsheet.

Thanks for letting me know of the program, I'm installing it now.
