    What is the BEST char gen software available?

    Adding classes is quick and easy with Hero Lab. You can do it within a pretty simple editor. Depending on what you're trying to accomplish with your classes, you might might need to write a few lines of script code to do "special" stuff. However, I've always been able to simply copy something...

    Customizable PCgen software?

    Hmmm. Looks like I'm an idiot and got two threads crossed. There's another similar thread elsewhere that the original posted specifically said "free". Sorry about that!!

    Customizable PCgen software?

    Well, MetaCreator isn't free, and that was one of your explicit criteria. Since the free requirement appears to no longer apply, check out Hero Lab over at www.wolflair.com.

    Customizable PCgen software?

    I'm guessing that one good option would be Hero Lab (www.wolflair.com). They've announced licenses for a few game systems already (including non-d20 stuff), and they talk about more announcements being imminent for other licenses. If Savage Worlds isn't in the list of upcoming announcements...

    Don't forget Hero Lab, which technically came out in 2006 (although only by a matter of days). It's going to completely change how character software is used and the expectations gamers have for quality gaming tools. You heard it here first!

    Hero Lab to Support Mutants & Masterminds RPG

    Looking for a simpler PC Gen...

    Hero Lab is Available Now!

    You're not alone in those sentiments. According to the company, the authoring tools will be released before the end of the year, so that's only about one week to wait. They have said the editing process will be pretty easy, but they also have a full scripting engine to handle all the funky...

    State of D&D Software

    There's a new entry that just came out. It's called Hero Lab and you can check it out at www.wolflair.com. It looks like it's got a lot of potential, and they even offer a free demo version so you know what you're buying upfront. It's from the same company that does Army Builder and Card Vault...
