Auto-filling/calculating/PRINTABLE D&D 5e Character Sheet

[pengsloth]

I have just uploaded Auto-filling/calculating/PRINTABLE D&D 5e Character Sheet to the downloads area.

Hello everyone! This, I feel, is the most advanced character sheet for D&D 5th edition that exists yet! Is it based on the superb layout down by SpadaBastarda for his letter character sheet here. Unlike his however this one is completely form-fillable and auto-calculating!

Here is what it does currently:

Form-fillable:
everywhere on the sheet is now formfillable this means that you don't need to print it out and then fill it in manual you can fill it straight from the pdf AND you can save the fill in Adobe Reader and keep on the changes for future sessions.

Drop-downs:
Dropdown lists are available right now for many of the broad character attributes. I.E. race, class, background, gender, ect. This are sourced directly from the Players Handbook and the wonderful javascript-based character generator by PathGuy found here.

Auto-calculating:
This pdf calculates EVERYTHING! All modifiers, skills, saving throws, initiative, proficiency bonus, ect are all calculated by your chracters level and ability scores (and others) so you don't have to worry about manually mathing (yes that is now a word).

Printable:
Unlike other form-filling pdfs I have seen this one is completely blank when you download it and only starts showing values when you put them in so if you a die-hard and want to put in all the stuff by hand you can! But really... Why would you want to when it does so much!

-------------------------------------------------

Currently it is still a work in progress. In this version here are the things not yet done but will be finished in the next few weeks:

Spells: Spellslots for each class is dynamically calculated however it currently only supports level 1 and level 2 spells.

Uses: Currently only the first weapon has checkbox uses/ammunition. This is because it takes FOREVER to rename and align each box of 20 checkboxs and actually slows down the pdf.

Encumbrance: Currently only carried coins is actually calculated and the rest of it is not. encumbrance values are calculated but there is yet any calculation of current load and penalty calculations based on that.

-------------------------------------------------


I really hope you enjoy it and please if you find any issues (because I am sure there are many) feel free to send me a message yelling at all the things I got wrong =)

You can find the file here in the downloads section. Please use this thread for comments.

File is too big. 12.8 MB is VERY large char. sheet and is absolutely useless if you play online and share with DM. I would suggest that you reduce file size. Everything above 1 MB is too big.
And I would suggest that you add race ability modifiers into auto-calc.

Been using it to build multiple characters and it's fantastic. Thanks for putting the work in.

Couple of comments that I'm running into.

1. The Race Traits don't appear to be included?

2. For the Armor, I was assuming I would put in the full Armor Class of a given armor type being worn by the player. However, right now it appears you simply have the Armor cell adding directly to the No Armor cell to create a Total, when in reality the Armor cell should be replacing the No Armor cell? Or was your idea that only the difference, if any, between the two should be included?

3. Dex Mods on Armor don't appear to be propagating across the top of the AC? Or were you thinking that would be adding in as part of that difference I note under 2. above, in the Armor cell? Or would you put that into Misc?

Note that for #s 2. and 3. I've got an easy workaround, but just wanted to see what your intention was and if it's wrong, to let you know. But the #1 point is a sticking point.

Again, thanks for the great work...putting it to thorough use.

I WOULD AGREE! I just spent the last hour and found a few reasons for this. Firstly the fonts had been embedded into the file and thus was slightly bigger but what made most of the size the fonts for the forms. Apparently it had decided to embed a font for EACH form field Very odd indeed. I am uploaded a new version now and it will be a mer 325KB. Small enough for ya? ;D

Hehe. That's nice.
Damn I sound like a woman, always something about size

This sheet is no longer downloadable. Does anyone have a copy to share?

Shame about no multiclassing. Also, I can't seem to fill in the speed or squares boxes, or the ability modifier or saving throw, or the hit dice, or initiative, or 20000 other boxes. Still, this is really, really awesome. Please finish.
