    Feats and Classes (Wyre)

    Apirant should be Aspirant, right?

    Custom Exalted Feats

    Bonus or no bonus, Power of Holiness still seems wrong somehow. And it really should be Epic (because players aren't likely to take it sooner).

    Custom Exalted Feats

    Power of Holiness - obviously the later you take the feat, the better, so why doesn't it stand out as epic? Also this is serious tinkering with game balance. If you wanted to have feats every 2 levels instead of 3 (or more often), I'm sure you could talk it over with your DM. Aura of Holiness -...

    Anybody know of a PPC formated version of the SRD?

    What is "PPC format"? Can't you open rtf, html or pdf on your Mac?

    Monster Advancement Software/Utilities

    Java is the main culprit and you can't change that. Besides, the chargen interface isn't really suited to running in 800x600. Lots of columns mean that you must sacrifice some of the display.

    3rd Domain as a Feat?

    That's funny, it was shown as non-epic in either Mongoose's or AEG's feat books (not sure which). Not core rules, but still. Of course most gods have four domains only, so it can only be taken twice.

    Which spell school should (Healing) spells be in?

    What kind of pool is that? Healing spells are from the Conjuration school in 3e, and that's that. They were under Necromancy in 2e. So the real thing you should be debating is why were they transferred at all? As you can see, both positions are justified.

    Looking for an excel worksheet for character personality/appearance/quirks

    As I recall, PCGen has randomly selected traits for a (N)PC you make. Other than that, this doesn't really neccessitate Excel, just use Tablesmith, Etools or anything else that can select random entries from a list.

    Baldur's Gate problems

    Bah, you can pickpocket him for not one, but two of his scimitars and he'd never notice. Not necessarily a bug in the sense that you're very unlikely to succeed (not with a low-level thief anyway), but still there's saving and loading... I've fond memories of playing BG, especially after my...

    Google Web Accelerator

    You also don't want the program if you have a monthly download limit. In short, why bother?

    Google Web Accelerator

    You can switch off graphics in pages altogether... or use links :)

    Google Web Accelerator

    It seems to offer little more than a browser cache can do already. I especially didn't like the "prefetching certain pages" part. Maybe they ARE evil and can read my mind? Note that it is designed for broadband, as dial-up offers little room for improvement anyway.

    Some spells for review [3.0]

    Hyper Missiles: note the verb forms (darts, strikes - should be plural) Call of the Sunspawn: does this spell function underground? Note that "spawn" has negative connotations. Wings of the Wayfinder: basically a better fly spell, no? Searing Blast: I think normal targets should get 1d4 damage...

    Area specific damage and disabling

    Of course hit points are abstract... it's a game, right? And it plays by the rules. One of the rules says that as long as you have > 0 HP you're alive and kickin'. The attempts to improve on hit points have been legion. Eventually it's up to DM to devise a critical hit system that will take...

    Feat: No armor expertise; input needed

    I suppose that the early feats were to be prerequisites for the late ones (otherwise you can just roll a character with 18 Dex and skip US in favor of IUS). You also should mention in GUS that it (also) doesn't give a benefit when paralyzed or unable to move (does sleeping count as unable to move?)

    Advice sought: PDF Editor software

    Only one of these is an editor. Sure, you can create the same document from a source over and over again, but I don't know how time-effective that would be.

    Ahh...nostalgia.

    Despite the name Al-Qadim isn't much of a RPG. It's a scrolling adventure game with a few RPG elements thrown in (your character doesn't even gain levels, AFAIR). On the other hand, Darksun was cool... and Darksun 2 too, but I heard it could not be finished due to bugs.

    Ahh...nostalgia.

    BaK was great! I must have played it some ten times or so, even though it is semi-linear (that is, you have a mission in each chapter, but you're allowed to loiter pretty much over the map). It's got over 100 riddles that a DM can try the players with (you can find all of them, with answers, at...

    Wow, SpellGen is Great

    Well, his e-mail is on the front page of the sheet (and contains the nick he uses on IRC). Actually I don't know how much a "lead" he is. All I know is that he runs a fairly big IRC server of you-know-what. If not for the fact that he's my compatriot, I probably wouldn't have bothered to...
