PCGen Character Sheet for Living ENWorld

[Roger]

I've created a character sheet output template for PCGen that produces text similar to the recommended standard for posting characters to a forum.

I'm releasing the Beta version -- if you're a user of PCGen, please feel free to take a look and give me any feedback or bug reports.

If you're not a user of PCGen -- I'd recommend giving it a try. I can barely imagine building a PC or NPC without it. http://pcgen.sourceforge.net/



Cheers,

I never liked PCGen. Never could get it to work right though. I have an excel spreadsheet that my dad built that I use, and it's flexable enough to deal with just about anything.

[Roger]

There's lots of good homebrew solutions that'll work just fine too, of course. I'm thinking that having PCGen files might make the administration of approving characters a bit more streamlined -- that may or may not turn out to be the case.



Cheers,
Roger

I'm sure it will be a usefull tool, particularly for the mathmaticly or rules challenged (Which could be any/everyone, it's easy to get a rule or two wrong).

[rln]

PCgen is a bit clunky, but at least it helped me spot a number of issues with my character while leveling up.

However, the output from the sheet seems to have a lot of errors when you have a skill/weapon/equipment longer than 7 characters... which is a lot of them.

[dungeon]

i just make my character sheets on paint. its easyier than the pcgen.
but i rilly love pcgen.

but remember..."cuz if u don't u will never explore the dungeon"

(if u like my slogun or just want to talk email me) :\
