4e Fan Creations and House RulesWorking on variant powers? Statting up a PC race or your version of a monster? Creating or converting an adventure? Put it here!
Any word on how long it is going to take for the next round of Hirahito updates? Will these updates include the additions presented in Adventurer's Vault, FR Player's Guide and Dragon 366?
I know that these things take time, so I'm not pushing for release, just a general idea on how long it is going to take.
Thanks for all you hard work, I am totally enjoying the fruits of your labor.
Until that time...

I second the motion for the mse and templates for Josiah's cards. While I am pretty set on the Hirahito set right now, I enjoy the prospect of giving my players various options for their own power cards. They are the ones that have to use the ones for their character, after all.
Until that time...

To tell you the truth, I'm still about halfway through the 4.1 update. With the release of the new FRPHB and the AG, I have a TON of new material I need to try and throw in here.
Then there's the Dragon #364, #365 and #366 (and probably #367 by the time I'm done) as well as the bug reports people are throwing in.
So what I'm thinking of doing instead of large releases is to put out small patches containing just a few days of work and detail on my site what each patch does. This won't be as nice as getting a whole huge update, but it will get progress out the door.
So expect the 4.1A release sometime next week. It will have only a few bug fixes, the new Warlock Star Pact and the Diseases and Poisons in the MM. I had to strip out the Alchemy and new Magic Items because those need to be in the AG release. I'll also see if I can put in a few of the other card fixes people have been throwing out there.
For those of you who are waiting for this with baited breath, I apologize.

Greetings...
Hirahito - there is absolutely no need to apologize. There is a lot of new material to add, especially for one person to perform... by hand... while dealing with "real life"... for free!
If only I had the ability to devote half the time that you are devoting, I would consider myself both lucky and blessed.
I, for one, will continue to wait patiently. With baited breath, to be sure, but patiently none the less. Giving it to us in smaller parcels is fine, by the way... some of us, to be sure, will simply wait until it is all done; others will grab what snippets we can.
To be sure, though, we recognize the amount of work that goes into this, and I, for one, am simply grateful that you are doing what you can.
Until that time...

I'd like to add a hearty thank you in advance also. I can't say enough how helpful and useful having these has been so far. As I mentioned in another post me and my group are all "returnees" to DnD after a long time not playing and having these card sets just makes our gameplay so much smoother and easier than constantly having to page flip for things we're still learning about.
So yes we're all waiting patiently and completely understand and appreciate the amount of time it must take to make all of this work and to keep it current.

News on the 4.1 release:
* I've decided I'm not going to make Monster Cards. I'm doing something different here. The end result will be HTML and / or PDF stat blocked Mobs printable to a sheet, etc. The main reason I wanted the cards (as a DM) was for quick lookup which I've decided is better done a different way (sorry, not going into details yet).
* I'm no longer going to support Dragon or Dungeon previews. I've had to pull every preview article I've entered into my cardset to put in the 'canon' rules from the AV and the FRPHB. Sorry, it's just twice as much work to support the previews and then have to rip them out to put the new stuff in.
* I now have the AV and FRPHB which I'll be entering into the 4.5 release.
* I'm creating an Ander look alike cardset and some card backs which I'll release with the 4.5 release. These will most likely be the last card-sets I'll be releasing.
Now, some bad news. I was upgrading my main computer to handle Quin-boxing (it's where you run 5 simultaneous accounts on WOW using a single keyboard/mouse). I had my 3 shammie / 2 shadow priest combo just about working when my power supply in my main computer blew out.
So... the 4.1 release is on hold until I can get my main comp working, which should be this weekend. Sorry for, yet again, having a delay.

Thanks for the update! Glad to hear you are on the case for the FRPG stuff, sad to hear you are sans computer for a bit. Best of luck to the PC on the recovery!
My last update was quite a while ago and I haven't checked the thread since (monstly because I didn't get to play as much as I would've liked over the summer).
With my new campaign getting off the ground this week, and one of the PCs being a swordmage, I have added some more powers to the set now, fixed a bunch of errors, and incorporated the latest errata. The set now includes all the powers from Dragon 364 through 366, as well as the swordmage powers from the Forgotten Realms Player's Guide.

Sweet, welcome back. I created ritual cards, condition cards and working on item cards (thru phb and 1/4 way thru AV) based on your set. Hope that was ok.
