PCGen is pleased to announce the release of PCGen v5.14.0!
Welcome to the latest stable release of PCGen, PCGen v5.14.0. In the 10 months since our last stable release we haven't been idle! There are 282 Feature requests (70 code, 99 data, 107 docs, 6 output sheets), 351 Bug fixes (158 code, 107 data, 75 docs, 11 output sheets) and 16 New sources included in this release. The highlights of the changes for PCGen 5.14 are listed below and you can view the Release Notes for full details.
Major Changes:
New Output Sheets:
New Sources:
Documentation:
A lot of this work has been setting us up for the future. Our LST syntax has been overhauled to ensure future backward compatibility. Those of you with data sets you have created yourself should drop by the PCGenListFileHelp list and inquire about conversion tools to bring your data up to date. Those with data from Code Monkey Publishing should check with CMP regarding updated data sets before upgrading. We have been working with them to ensure this future upgrade path. In the future releases we have setup PCGen so that updates can be performed by the program, so this should be the last of these transitions.
PCGen is a RPG character generator and maintenance program (d20 systems). All datafiles are ASCII so they can be modified by users for their own campaigns. Please join us at PGen@Yahoo! or visit our website.
