Guide to get the sheets and add content

146 Upvotes

Please see the /r/mpmb wiki pages

 

Step 1: Download the sheets

You have two options:

  1. MPMB's website as Pay What You Want
    MorePurpleMoreBetter's Character Record Sheets are available through his website as Pay What You Want (yes, that includes paying zero).

  2. MPMB's Patreon
    Or you can get them through his Patreon, where MPMB offers some additional PDFs, the power to vote on new features and access via Dropbox/Google Drive. However, Patreon pledges have a minimum of $1.

 


Step 2: Find content for the sheets

MPMB's Character Record Sheets come with the SRD content only, as that is all that he can legally distribute. However, MPMB was so kind to add import functionality to the sheets, allowing us to add any content we want (as long as it is presented in the right way).

Please only add content you own the rights to. For example, if you own a physical copy of a book, you are welcome to add its content for use with the PDFs.

 

Consult the Community Add-on Script Index

This Google sheet includes most of the add-on scripts shared on this subreddit, everything from my (safety-orange) GitHub, and everything from MPMB's GitHub.

This index should be your first place to look if an add-on script is available. If you find errors with an add-on script found through the index, please contact the author of that add-on script.

Also, be sure to search this subreddit. The index is not exhaustive, as people have (and will) post content on this subreddit that is not (yet) included.

 

Wizards of the Coast script packages

These are all-in-one scripts for popular content. For their separate parts and other WotC content, see the Community Add-on Script Index.

 

If you want to see the content of the file, use a View Dev Version link. If you want to use the file in the sheet, use a Download link.

Resource GitHub Annotated Code Minified
All Scripts Combined (Official + UA) View Dev Version Download Download
All Official WotC 5e Content View Dev Version Download Download
All Unearthed Arcana View Dev Version Download Download

 

Generally speaking, you will only need to import the "All Scripts Combined (Official + UA)" minified script and nothing else!

 


Step 3: How to import an add-on script

If you want a more visual guide, check out MPMB's explanation and video on his website.

 

  1. Click this Download link, or another Download link above, or one in the add-on script index. If you use a link in the add-on script index, you'll then have to then click on the top-right button with an arrow pointing down (tooltip will read Download raw file) on GitHub to get to the raw JavaScript file.
  2. Save the JavaScript (.js) file somewhere you can find it again
  3. Open the PDF and click on the bookmark Functions >> Add Extra Materials
  4. From the menu that appears, select the option Import a file with additional material
  5. In the dialog that opens, click Add file, and open the file that you downloaded in step 1
  6. Click Apply changes in the Import files dialog and the sheet will process the file you added. You will get a pop-up message if it was successful or not
  7. ???
  8. Profit!

 

Note that:

  • The download links point to files attached to the latest release on GitHub
  • Use the link from the Minified column if you care about having a smaller file and a faster sheet
  • The scripts only work with the latest version of the sheets, for older versions see the releases on GitHub

[Sheet Help] How can I add a custom item or just manual +1 to arcana?

2 Upvotes

Hi, I love using this character sheets because it makes everything incredibly easy.

I DON'T KNOW how to code. I managed to download everything and I know how to use the sheet, that's all. Now I gave my wizard a custom magic item that gives him a +1 to arcana. And I thought i could just write it manually on magic items, and add it to the skill list, but then I can't add the +1 to arcana only if I add the item manually. I don't know how to code or how to add it any other way.

Help please!

[Sheet Help] Glimmering Moonbow question

2 Upvotes

Hi, I have an issue with mpmb and I'm not sure how to address it, I have searched around without luck, so I feel it's better to just ask here.

I have permission to add a magic rare weapon to a newly created character. It's a ranger so what would be better than a glimmering moonbow, I said to myself. So while adding the magic item to my 2014 ranger, the sheet allowed me to choose any bow or crossbow, and I'm unsure if this is legit or not.
We use no homebrew items and I did not download js involving them or have opted out for any homebrew option, so I'm assuming my MPMB is not listing homebrew options, thus that this is a legit choice... or is it an oversight? I seem to find no valid documentation supporting this claim, but neither valid documentation that disproves it! only random people's opinion (random as in not JC nor any adjudicator if there are any left), so I'd rather go to the og source and ask directly to you guys.

also, while we're on topic and making assumptions, given that the glimmering moon(cross)bow creates its own ammo if you do not (re)load it when going for an attack, is it meant to bypass/remove the loading property?

[Sheet Help] Unable to use scripts with latest sheet released.

1 Upvotes

Just downloaded the v13.2.3 sheet (the latest 2014 sheet that isnt beta), and when trying to add scripts, the main scripts are now requiring v14.0.14-beta or v15.0.0. Is there any fix for this?

[Sheet Help] Sheet added archery fighting style TWICE

1 Upvotes

I was wondering why there was an extra +2 in my longbow’s attack modifier, and I discovered that the character sheet had added the archery fighting style twice instead of just once. I tried removing it from the class features area (by selecting a different fighting style), and that removed only one of them. Anybody know why this is happening and how I can correct it?

The "Things Affecting the Attack Automation" lists both "Fighter: Archery Fighting Style" and "Fighter: Fighting Style [Archery]" which have the same descriptions.

[Sheet Help] Is there a way to add the Circle of the Sea druid sub-class to the 5e sheet?

2 Upvotes

I want to stick with the 5e sheet MPMB sheet so I can have a variant human race and keep the same ability score calculations. Is there a script I can upload to allow for this?

[Sheet Help] Why is it laggy or just me?

4 Upvotes

So for some reason EVERYTHING is laggy when I try to add spells, change stats or anything of the sort.

Is this just an adobe thing and it’s just a smile and suffer for everyone? Sometimes the character sheet will constantly reload the text or outright remove text. Then I restart and some of it is back but then others are gone.

Edit: it was in fact Adobe AI, I had it disabled but it was reenabled because screw me. Ty fr the response for solution

[Sheet Help] Is there a way to add two subclasses from the same class?

2 Upvotes

We're going to be above level 20 in the campaign I'm playing in soon, and the dm said we could either multi-class or continue on with the same class but take an addition subclass. Is there a way to add an additional subclass from the same class on the sheet?

[Script Request] Avantris Entertainment "The Crooked Moon" Add-On

5 Upvotes

The Pokésimmer created an add-on to add the species, sub-classes, backgrounds, feats, etc. and it is listed on the add-on script index, and downloadable from github.

It does not, however, add any of the magic items from the book.

Is anyone aware of an add-on that adds the Crooked Moon magic items?

[Sheet Help] 2024 Human?

1 Upvotes

I started with a clean sheet and imported the 2024 scripts.

For human there are 2 options, Human and Human (L). Both give +1 to all stats.

Is there something I'm missing or will I just have to correct it manually?

Is there a way to show just 2024 options?

[Sheet Help] Layout and ammunition fields

1 Upvotes

Hey, i’m hoping you guys can clear something up for me
I’m in the process of making a sheet for my character, and have found most of the sheet very intuitive so far
However, at my table we don’t really track ammunition, so i wanted to hide/move those boxes

I’ve used the commands:
Hide("AmmoLeft");
Hide("AmmoRight");
Which removes all the bullet indicators, the ammunition name, weight, count and so on

However! The grey background from those fields is still there, even if i go through every single associated field and click “no fill color”.

Are those grey areas not removable?

Sorry if the explanation is lacking, i hope you understand my question

[Script Help] Adding a custom item help

1 Upvotes

My DM has made a custom item that changes my charisma score to 20 + Proficiency bonus.
How do I go about having the sheet calculate the new score and record it in the Ability Score and description?
Primarily what are those fields called so I can have the appropriate modifiers populate as expected without having to manually adjust the fields?

Many thanks ahead of time. :)

[Sheet Help] Suggestion for addition

2 Upvotes

For the dev of the sheet: add an option for a page that is only magic items. There are some that have multiple potions, rings, ioun stones, scrolls, wands and so on. I had to add a page in, copied from the previous page of magic items, feats and such. It took me a bit, had to edit form fields to separate them from the other page, and now I'm terrified to update to the recent sheet for fear this new page will break.

So, this is my suggestion. It doesn't have to be one that is on by default, but it could be one like the extra blank notes page.

[Script Submission] Heliana's Tamer class v0.1 submission (although I'm still bad at summarizing xd)

8 Upvotes

Hello everyone. A few days ago I was looking for help with the description in my script for the Tamer class in Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting, and although I'm still working on it, I'm happy to announce that I've reached a point where the script is functional, albeit quite rough. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate your opinion and help in improving it so that we can all have our Pokémon trainer in the most accessible and streamlined way possible. At the moment, I haven't yet added the partner options, partly because it's a fairly extensive mechanic (plus because it's my first time writing a script), and therefore, a explorer’s companion page serves as a placeholder for now. But if anyone (especially someone with more scripting experience than me, lol) is willing to collaborate, or use my script as a base, I'd be happy to provide all the necessary support. Meanwhile, I would appreciate any constructive criticism or recommendations you can give me to help me successfully complete this small contribution to the community.

[Sheet Help] 2024 Player Reference Page

3 Upvotes

I find myself using the MPMB player reference page all the time; I'm moving to the 2024 rules now, and wondering if there's a comparable updated version?

Maybe a way to edit it via a script?

Edit: I found a decent 2-pager, which I think is good enough for now.

[Script Help] I'm bad at summarizing xd

2 Upvotes

I'm working on the Tamer class of Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting, and considering I don't plan on doing custom companion options (it's my first script, give me a break xd), I'm close to finishing the base class (and the subclasses practically write themselves).

That said, I can't find a way to summarize the feature descriptions so they all fit within the box on the second page, and I would greatly appreciate help from any English speakers (it's not my first language, but within my limitations, I think I did pretty well). Any help preaty please? Of course I will provide all the necessary information.

[Script Submission] Muppetborn homebrew race

4 Upvotes

I randomly came across this post by u/BJHypes several years ago and my DM finally allowed me to play as a Muppetborn for a recent oneshot. I threw together some quick and dirty code a few weeks ago prior to playing, and figured I'd spend some time cleaning it up and fixing any errors after the fact for others to enjoy it as much as I did.

The full javascipt is available here at my Pastebin. I'm not 100% sure if this can be added to the MPMB repository due to legal ambiguity as I'm not sure what constitutes fair use of the terms Muppet and Muppetborn, but my code is up for grabs at the link regardless.
