    Gamers Opinion of PCGen (No Rants)

    Oh... this was WAY before OSX, and thus way before native Java based applications. I haven't had a chance to try it on a Mac since then. Unfortunately, I haven't enough money to buy a new mac. -F

    Gamers Opinion of PCGen (No Rants)

    Here's a slower version. Actually my VERY first foray into the program. Macintosh 7300 200mhz upgraded to a G3 500mhz. Running Virtual PC 3. Under Windows 98 (emulated). The VERY first version of PCgen if I remember correctly. It was AWFUL! :D Incidentally, it's how I started running the...

    Space game rock soundtrack

    I know it sounds cheesy, but you might check out some of the music from Transformers the Movie: it's got some totally excellent 80'sish rock in it. It's also got a couple of really ass tracks, but overall it's a great CD. -F

    Two-handed-Two-weapon fighting Munchkinism

    Wouldn't it just be simpler to get a wizard to polymorph you so that you have 4 arms, then take multiweapon feat and dual wield greatswords 2 handed? :D How's THAT for silly? -F

    [OT] Looking for the EXACT Gandalf quote

    Right. That would be: Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger. It's not a Gandalf quote though. It's a quote from Gildor, the leader of the High Elves that the hobbits meet on the road to Bree. Hope that helps! -F

    Best level to fight the Tarrasque

    Any wizard with fly, greater invisibility, spider climb and a buncha plane shift scrolls can get rid of the tarrasque without any problem. Fly above it. Turn on invisibility. Latch onto it with Spider Climb. Then slap it with plane shift till it misses its save. I suggest the elemental...

    looking for D&D chat client type thingiedoo...please help.

    Yup. OpenRpg rocks. Best of all, it supports PCgen sheet output, if yer into that. (see my post in the 'opinions about pcgen' thread). -F

    Gamers Opinion of PCGen (No Rants)

    When I first tried PCgen, I was really excited. "Look! This'll let me use supplements I don't even own and give me options that the CG demo doesn't support!" I was pumped. Five minutes after starting to use it, I gave up and deleted it. Several times after that I tried to get into it...

    Recommend some good CRPG's for me

    In terms of console gaming, I'll totally second Chrono Trigger as one of the greatest of all time. Close behind, however are Final Fantasy IV (2 in the US) and Final Fantasy VII. Both have absolutely stunning, heart wrenching storylines and great character development. Together, those...

    One Year Ago

    Eric, Though I wasn't reading your site since before 3e came out by some months (hadn't gamed in a while), I picked up on it almost immediately after the books themselves were released. It took me another few months to actually delve into the messageboard community. I had no idea such a...

    News of a Dragonlance movie

    Oh god... what an awful thought. Maybe if he could act like something other than a thug. Don't get me wrong... I've liked him in the parts he's played, I just don't see him as a leading man in a role that calls for depth of character. Of the three... I can only see him as Riverwind and even...

    The care and flattering of magic items

    [/b] This assumes, though that the magic item in question somehow has a kind of rudimentary intelligence and/or perceptive ability that allows it to determine whether it 'wants' to function for a specific person. [/b] And that is what? So that someone actually uses the stat? [/b] But, as I...

    The care and flattering of magic items

    Disclaimer: this has probably already been covered a million times before. That being said, it's still a total mystery to me. So... Why in the name of all that's holy (or to be PC, unholy, demi-holy, athiestically challenged) is the "Use Magic Device" skill based on one's Charisma score...

    A few pcgen questions...

    Excellent! I've gotten the inventory thing working now. Very easy if you know what to do. Now I've started in on getting my PCgen characters from PCgen to Openrpg. Unfortunately, the 3.0 Openrpg template gives me an .xml error when I try to load a templated sheet into openrpg. The old...

    A few pcgen questions...

    Well. More experimentation = more questions! One of the main reasons that I've shied away from PCgen in the past is the whole process of equipping my character. That being said, I've decided to plunge in and try it anyways. So where are the magic weapons? Sure, I've found all sorts of...

    A few pcgen questions...

    Hmm... I suppose I could blow a feat on skill focus and get some more Knowledge: Undead points that way. -F

    A few pcgen questions...

    [/b] Well... that answers that. Thanks! Looks like I'll need to get 3.0. [/b] ... Seriously? Bah! That was unexpected. So does that mean that a character must necessarily be 6th lvl before taking the hunter of the dead PrC, as no standard classes have Knowledge: Undead as a class skill...

    A few pcgen questions...

    I've (thankfully) got the 2.7.3 version that was released several days ago. What's more, I think I've finally gotten the hang of the program! At any rate, I've got a few questions. I was trying to input a paladin and ran into some problems. 1. Mounted combat won't make itself available to...

    Can Mighty Composite Bows also be Masterwork?

    The *real* problem arises when you try and describe a magical composite mighty bow to someone else in OOG terms. You: "I've got a +5 +5 mighty composite long bow!" Me: "You mean you've got a +10 MCLB? That's not possible, dude." You: "No... I meant that I have a +5 MCLB +5" Me: "Can I...

    Hmm. Mongoose picked up the "the Slayer's Guide to Minotaurs" from me some months ago, but never published it (i.e. I never saw a cent :) Hi Matt!) Other than that, I'm still a publishing noob :) I should really submit something to Asgard one of these days :) -F
