I have to admit that I'm not very familiar with the FATE system, and reading up on Diaspora puts me off, just a little. I'm familiar with GURPS and Shadowrun, and I'm not a fan of either system, either. I really like D20 systems, and I've been working on a Mass Effect game, pulling OGL...

Can anyone recommend a hardcore sci-fi RPG? I'm interested in anything Mass Effect style in the space opera vein. I've dug through Star Wars, d20 Future, and Rifts, but I've yet to see a table-top RPG in a space opera setting (aside from Star Wars).

I totally understand wanting to avoid having extra gear at the table. With the DDI Character Builder, there's no functionality for in-game management of the character; that is, it isn't replacing character sheets at all, simply assisting in leveling up, selecting skills and such, etc. Character...

I haven't been around much, and due to life in general, I haven't been active at all with my two D&D4e tools. To that end, now that it looks like I'll have a large chunk of free time in the foreseeable future, I'd like to know : who uses my Character Sheet and/or Encounter Manager apps? The more...

It's been a while, I know, but I'm working on making the next release more than just something incremental. To that end, I'm formally asking for help for something specific. Since I'm working on content module support right now, I need quite a bit with that tested. This means not just creating...

I am working on content module support right now, but unfortunately the next release isn't ready yet (even when content module support is in a sufficient state for public use). I still have more to do with equipment before I have the next release ready, and there is much testing and documenting...

Multiclass support is admittedly pretty sketchy right now. While support for accessing a multiclass' powers is in, using another class' daily power as an encounter power is not. It's on the todo list, right next to sorting out Dragonborn's different healing surge calculation. Both are...

I'm working around limited free time at the moment. I don't have a deadline that I've set for myself. Judging on my current rate of progress, I might have something worth releasing next Wednesday - it might be only basic equipment, it might include using the weapon/armor/gear slots, it might...

Quoted for pertinence.

I don't have those books (yet), but above all, I don't intend to convert every sourcebook myself. It's become the most requested feature of late (above even functional equipment), which has suitably bumped the priority on allowing external data files to "right after equipment is fully...

In my signature, you'll find the link to my Character Sheet (and DM tools). 64 sprites is nothing. While real-time rendering performance isn't necessary for a character sheet, readability at certain resolutions of text size is a major consideration. 256x192 is a pitifully small amount of screen...

I'd support porting my Character Sheet to the DS if I had a DS and a devkit, and I wasn't faced with completely recreating a UI for a memory limited system.

So, I'm looking at rearranging how equipment is listed on Character Sheet. It doesn't make much sense to have "Magic Items" listed above the equipment you have on, nor does separating "Other Equipment" from "Other Magic Items". There should be just one "Equipment" list and the equipment slots...

That doesn't sound like a .NET issue so much as a Windows issue. Character Sheet uses a *lot* of windows controls, and it sounds like your laptop isn't handling well scrolling a window with that much redrawing. Is your laptop hurting for memory/drive space (either limitation will hamper Windows...

I don't have plans to create data files for material beyond the core sourcebooks. However, I do plan on implementing an external data file loading system that will allow people to make their own data files with custom content for use within Character Sheet. That's fairly high on my list, almost...
