D&D Apps for Android
Welcome,
Please use this board to share custom content files for the D&D3.5 and D&D5e applications for android.

Hi Revan
I think one of the entries misses the name field.
I will need to take a closer look, but really recommend to use the content editor instead of making raw files, it can create many issues like this.
I can help you with that, please send me a pm to info@vansteinengroentjes.nl
Thank you for your effort.
I can probably implement this template directly in the content ceator, I guess that would be most handy.

Thanks for the notice.

Where can you not add 1/8 as challenge rating? In the online creator?
The online creator locks you to 0.25 intervals it allows negatives (I don't know why) but if you try to give it a 0.12 (a 1/8) challenge ratings it rejects it and if you change the challenge ratings in the template box it will say it is a 1/8 challenge rating in the app but if you actually look in the 1/8 search it won't show up, it only shows up in the all challenge rating list, I think the error might be in the apps search for the monsters function it likely happened when tgr fractional rating where added
Thanks, that it does not show in the search is because the first field is used for searching (so 0.25 in that case).
I have update the online creator tool to allow any decimal number. Please use 0.12 for 1/8 because that is also what the app uses at the moment.
Thank you for the bug report!
I will look into this asap!
Dear hypersoci028,
Please check if the application has write access to the file system.
Go to settings->apps->complete reference -> permissions and check that the file access is enabled.
If that does not work send me an email to info@vansteinengroentjes.nl and I will try to help you further.
The file needs the correct extension. So either .dd35 or .dd5. Rename the file such that it has that extension. Then go to dropbox on your ios device, select the file, select open with and the app should show.

Yes it needs .dd5 as an extension. Just rename the file to .dd5 in the end and it should work.
You can definately at your own content to the app.
Use the online content creator: https://complete-reference.com/DD5creator/
Then download the file from the content creator and open it on your phone with the app.
For iOS you would need to open the file from a file sharing app such as Dropbox otherwise it does not work.
You can also upload the file to this forum to share it with the rest of us.
In addition, many of the monsters you can also find in the official content section of this forum 
If you have more questions let me know!
Hi Sauntaya,
You can share content (as you figured out) in the upper right menu (export).
For deleting duplicates you can do that in the app itself in the list view by long clicking on items and then pressing the delete button in the upper right corner.
To clean up the files, this is not a trivial task. We are at the moment with the help of another forum user doing this with Python scripts.
We now have all content without duplicates in one big file (you can find it in the official content section at the end). And we will continue from there.
itreboss@gmail.com wrote:Ok THIS is the correct file:
Cool! Shall I delete the first for you? To prevent confusion?
Did you try to do a complete re-install of the app (remove it from your device and install again)?
esotericreference wrote:I have pulled all of the official content that I could find in the thread into a single .dd5 file, removed all the duplicates (first by ID and then by a 2-stage fuzzy match), made some formatting changes, and fixed a couple small errors, such as entries being tagged with the wrong type. I now have all the source files as puled from this thread, reformatted as "pretty" JSON, in gitlab, so I can modify the merge script and fix bugs in the source file reference at the same time.
LMK if you want gitlab access so you can pull and help fix up the source files or work on the script (Python).
Wow! That is great work!
I would love to help with the script and cleaning up the spelling mistakes. You can invite me with bas@vansteinengroentjes.nl .
I will add your all-in-one file to the first post and perhaps somewhere more prominent (forum index maybe?) If you agree. Currently on holidays but once I am back I will work on it.
Cool, but your file does not have an extension..
Did you create it with the creator tools? If yes, please add .dd5 behind the filename and re-upload it.
Exporting can only be done per item. Deletion can be done by long-clicking in the list (multiple items) or per item.
A mass export of only "downloaded" content is not possible because they are stored in the same way as the rest of the content once they are imported.
Excellent question, and the answer is basically simple.
Races are not auto-calculated or taken into account automatically in the character creator.
The character module was developed much later then the rest of the application. To add all the fields to the races table at this moment would be a huge task (to fix all the previous content).
Yes true, the content in the app also has a CR of 0 as field instead of the 1/2, 1/4 etc. This is a technical issue and not so easy to solve at this moment. What you can do online is fill in 0 in the field and specifiy in the box below CR: 1/2, XP: 100 (for example).
The bottom box is free text so you can fill in anything you want. This is also the content you see in the app. The CR field where you can fill in a number is only used for sorting and for generating encounters.
Thanks for the feedback and the translation.
Will have a look at Neverwinter Nights
Hi Juggernaut,
The NPC list is still under construction, so yes you can link to them but you cannot add them yet.
We will work on it! Sorry for the confusion.
I think you can still do that. In the app it is possible for sure, if it is according to the rules? Who cares, as long as the DM agrees and you have fun playing.
At the moment there is no good way to do this.
This is on purpose because adding images would not only hugely increase the footprint (space required) for the app but also easily cause copyright issues.
The google image option is a workaround to provide at least some images in the application.
If you want to add an image to custom content in the online content editor you can do it by adding the image as base64 encoded in the html code editor, but it requires a bit of html knowledge and I don't recommend it with big images.

Hi, the learned field is an indication of the spells which you selected for the day.
So assume you have 4 level 1 slots and 1 level 2 slot, you can select either 4 different level 1 spells and one level 2 spell for that day, or 2 level 1 spells you can cast twice plus one level 2 spell, etc.
Hope that helps!

I don't have much yet, but I did notice you didn't have Tiamat's stats so I got them. Thanks...
No problem! You can easily add content using the content creator tools.
Go to this link:
https://complete-reference.com/DD5creator/
Login with your forum account.
Go to the category you want to add stuff for, for example classes.
Press the button to add a new entry and write down the details. Once you are done press download dd5 file (export). The file you then get can be attached to a forum post for sharing.
Hope that helps!
