Not at all. I simply need to very clearly double check with people what they've done. I quite often end up trying to sort out people's issues, and quite often it ends up with somebody saying something along the lines of "Oh, yes, that's right. I did do that. Silly me...". RPM has thousands and...

I know exactly how it works, and I haven't made any further replies to your last e-mail, because I'm currently unable to make any further suggestions, based on what you've told me. The notes that you can't find are within 5 lines of where you downloaded the full install, and on the same line as...

I was dead slow for me too yesterday. There were numerous timeouts on the ENWorld message boards and even cyberstreet itself. Viruses may have been clogging up pipes to certain parts of the world, without others being aware. Seems to be okay now...

Fair enough. It was about 3:00AM for me, and I could could certainly have been a bit more careful with some word choices. I certainly don't mean they don't work. As I said, irrespective of of anything else, there must certainly be plenty of users getting great use out of DMF and others. Just...

I'm not sure what you mean about buffs/nerfs, but I would highly recommend putting a stacking calculator into DMF. If you appear to take modifications into account, but don't actually do it correctly, then you run the risk of having players think that you're actually doing the correct job for...

No problem Todd. RolePlayingMaster actually does pretty much all you can hope for from a program. You can do more if you have a fully worked 3D world (like NeverWinter Nights, except you lose badly in other ways). From the images above, there's obviously a very large database of feats, items...

As always, whatever the gaming style, the most important thing is that the group enjoys it, and hopefully that its consistent. In over 20 years of gaming, I've had a wide range of gaming style experiences. At one end of the spectrum I've been in games that get really bogged down in the detail...

Rules lookup I have a pretty different take on that. I sit at the table with my laptop running RolePlayingMaster, and I do very accurate play with my character. I resolve issues very quickly, and whilst others struggle a little too much with the numbers, I get instant results, and get to focus...

RolePlayingMaster does much as above, with notable extensions like: Proper understanding of how stacking rules work, to give you correct calculations. Extensive wordprocessing capabilities for the highest quality in campaign and adventure building results. Very strong, configurable generator...

Thanks Gariig, In total, RolePlayingMaster certainly is pretty big. Thats a pretty natural consequence of having just about everything you could want in there, as well as the ability to change it to suit your particular campaign or genre. If you just want PC/NPC generation and management, you...

Hey Ken, Just have another quick look at the instructions just above where you downloaded the 3.5 dataset. You don't actually unzip files yourself. You use the "Import" facility to import datasets, adventures and other material into RPM. This will correctly merge your RPM add-ins into your...

As the developer of RPM, I'd second Cergorach's suggestion ;) A program like RolePlayingMaster can give you virtually everything at the table, from advanced capabilities in PC/NPC/creature generation (with intelligent choices for selection of equipment, feats, spells etc), through to...

Fix You must have missed the update fix by a matter of hours. There's a one line rules file edit fix (e-mail me at luke_jones@roleplayingmaster.com ), or I highly recommend just getting the update file. The update (v4.2.8) has some very nice features (see the web page news). As per the...

A couple of issues did creep through with the latest release. Sorry about that. Often times, when major features are introduced, finding and fixing an issue it does take a version or 2 to sort out. The latest NPC +equipment generator features are pretty major features. You should find that...

RolePayingMaster:RolePlayingMaster : [Campaign Orginization and Customization] For campaign-specific feats, classes, skills, spells etc, download official datasets, grab community ones, or enter your own. If you like, tap into the most advanced RPG engine capabilities available. Also, the...

You're interested in: - A (3.0) character generator - Equipment generation - Something that will work on WIndows95. RolePlayingMaster should be fine for that. If you wait a couple of days to try out the latest version, I'm about to release an update that adds a new "User Options" system. The...

:D Like it! The people make the choice, and I get to stay on the fence! Just so happens that I'm completing a generic "Options" section for RPM, so this will fit in nicely. I'm not quite sure what you meant by option 3 (straight modifier), but perhaps thats where I put in my own table to...

This refers to the 3.5 DMG on page 173, which shows you how to map standard 3d6 ability rolls to a standardized racial range. These are the charts that compress the 3d6 dice roll range to appropriate numbers for low (less than 10) standard racial ability scores. The Game Theory The table works...

There's little doubt that Generators are perhaps one of the most useful RPG tools. Whether they are tables in core books or PDFs, web pages, excel spreadsheets, or dedicated software applications - they can be particularly good at saving DMs a huge amount of preparation time. I'm extremely...

Anyone know if Russ or Jason (Hellhound) are both on holiday, or something? I haven't been able to contact either for about a week now. Thanks.
