I ran into this myself some time ago. You need to clear out your cache (temporary files). There's an extensive explanation here: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=810978 and a simple one here: http://en.eichberger.net/service/browser/bmp_browser.php I haven't run into this problem with...

This page has some good re-paints. I believe he has some instructions detailing what he did elsewhere on site.

I'll second the vote for Warhammer FRP. If only I had the time for that in addition to my D&D campaign! I was a fan of Rolemaster for a time as well. Some of the books, such as Gamemaster Law and Treasure Companion, still are very useful for any fantasy RPG.

The $80 version is the $60 version bundled with some art packs, so "Platinum" and "Gold" sound like they're the same thing. The sample maps look pretty nice, though the "adventure building" feature shown in the screenshots doesn't look all that great. I'll have to try the demo and see what it's...

If you're interested in a laptop "DM Screen", you could check out Campaign Sage, a freeware tool I created awhile back. I was actually inspired by the program you're talking about, as I found it useful but lacking for my purposes. Sage runs inside of IE and is entirely "open", since its all text...

I'm considering doing some PalmOS development (RPG utilities, of course :)), and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or experience they could share concerning the various Palm tools out there. I'm interested in something fairly easy to use (I don't feel like re-learning C++, so...

I've found ActionOutline to be quite good. It doesn't have quite as many features as you list for Treepad, but it has enough for what I've needed it for. It's been very dependable, too (I used to use MyInfo up to version 2.0 or 2.1 until it ate my data...)

Yes and Yes. Very. You just set the pieces out however you want them. Unusual map configurations might require a little creativity on your part, but if what you set up with the pieces is close enough, then you should be good. I use them for entire dungeons. Depends. I usually set them out...

I think mine was in the range of 30-35, so that's close. Of course, that doesn't include the time lost when I had to reload :)

I'll second the suggestions of Morrowind and Knights of the Old Republic. Excellent RPGs. I don't know of any good Civ or MOO type games for XBox. Halo is really good; it's an FPS, but I'd still recommend it. MechAssault is good too, though, again, it's not an RPG or RTS.

Yeah, sounds like HD should be the default. I wasn't sure if someone at some point said "We listed the caster level under 'spell-like abilities', so that's what you should use." Thanks!

My apologies if this has been asked before (feel free to direct me to the thread if so!). Most of the time, spell-like abilities for monsters are listed with a designated caster level. If this isn't listed, the description of "spell-like abilities" in the MM glossary states that the create's HD...

I should probably follow up as well, since I finally got both issues (Dragon on Friday, Dungeon today).

Considering that it's a Windows program, I'm not surprised.

TableSmith 4.3 is now available at Mythosa.net. The new features of 4.3 are listed below: Formerly, there were some issues with numbers used in tables if they were greater than 32767. This has been fixed. New functions have been added: - Log: Write values out to a file; helpful for...

How would you differentiate a "dragon hoard" from a "really big pile of regular treasure"?

Add me to the list as well for both Dragon and Dungeon (my local shop had both of them in as of today).

Forgot about the MapMaker program. That was very cool. Outside of the mapmaker, I can't comment too much on CR or CR2 since I don't remember enough about them. One thing I do recall, though, was the non-standard interface (things like graphical gems for buttons come to mind). If I'm playing a...

If you right-click on a program's icon, select "Properties" and the "Compatibility" tab, there's a checkbox for "Run in 256 colors". Not sure how well it works, but you might want to try it.
