I do remember that timeline, but now Code Monkey has E-Tools... what, 3 years or more? It can't possibly be the same program, and I would imagine they would gut the original crap that Fluid had done... Thank you for the info though, but I'm really looking for a current evaluation of both...

Alright, as near as I can tell, they are generally the same program... clearly housed by the same publishing company (Code Monkey). So what's the difference? My understanding is that PCGen is superior, and the fact that it is free just makes it even better. Thank you for any insight you can...

PS2- Kingdom Hearts 2 The Warriors PC- Sim City 4 Deluxe Edition F.E.A.R World of Warcraft Not that I have any time for any of these... heh. But at any time that I have a half hour to mess around with something just for the heck of it, this is the selection I currently pull from.

98 2nd edition? You can find out by right clicking on My Computer, Select Properties and the window that comes up will show the OS installed on the top right of that window. If this says Windows 98, then it is 1st edition. It will say "Second Edition" if it is installed. The reason? Second...

Background: Currently working in IT, specifically in security at very high levels. 12+ years in IT with a strong background in workstation tech (both stand alone, networked, corporate and home user). What that means is while I'm not the end all, be all of IT by any means, I have a significant...

My wife ran a 3.0 druid with a longspear. Having that reach and combat reflexes can be leveraged to great effect for the dexterity enhanced. :) 3.5 is suited for this even more, so you must be laying waste to the enemy with that character! I myself was playing a Fighter/Rogue with a Bastard...

Now, would a bear attack and continue to attack a target that has gone limp? If one claw was enough to take her down to 0 or below, would the bear continue attacking her or would he then attack Grom, who is right next to it? I am under the impression that the bear would kill everything still...

While feats are not the main component of the system, for some classes, especially Fighters, they are very important. IMO, they are integral to fighters. In the example you list above, a 5th level fighter has a high probability of having Power Attack. Had he used even 2 of his (5 at that level)...

The operative word is "better". We could argue all year as to what better means to every person and never get close to reaching an accord. This is a complex question which requires a complex answer because it is directly impacted by a vast number of individuals. Each person involved brings a...

Indeed. I thought it important to specify the rules and how they apply, but I saw no reason to attack anyone about a simple misunderstanding. The funny part is unavoidable for me, as I tend to use humor to "diffuse" what could be tense situations (which essentially telling someone over the...

Well, specifically and not to simply play devil's advocate, the rules only strictly disallow cursing, raunchy/racist/dirty text (grandma rule), not staying on topic, name-calling, politics and religion; my social comment of divorce bring from (in part, obviously) many people's inability to...

and I would retort by saying that the level of divorce in America alone proves that not being able to communicate effectively with others IS a special, rare skill.

My two cents, as they were, is to reflect on why a possible majority (read: 51%) or at the very least the vocal minority of those who play Role-Playing Games are egotistical, verbally abusive and socially retarded: As mentioned before by others, and what I find to be true, is that people who...

Trend Micro, mentioned previously, is one of the leading corporate level brands. I've used it on a number of installations (small, large and gov.) to great effect. Hotmail now uses them for their built-in scanning solution as well. That's a huge client, as you well know. Also as mentioned, it is...

Something to remember with the older games is that XP will not play any DOS-based programs while 9x (95, 98, 98SE, ME) all will. This backwards capability is one of the main reasons the 9x Kernal of MS-OSes was so unstable. XP, being built on the NT kernel, does not have the DOS support. This...

while what trance said is possibly accurate depending on what the real physical problem you're having is, an alternative that may work for you is to go into your hardware profiles for XP, create a copy of the current profile and set it to prompt at startup for which profile you want to choose...

I run a game every other week at my place, but we have a dues system that pays for food and props for the group (I'm far too poor to blow my money on miniatures that will only be used for this group). Since we have things like veggie beef stew and fresh baked bread, I need to have things set in...

The first module I ran was Keep on the Borderlands as well. Now, as to what was my *second* module, i could not even begin to remember at all. Bree-Yark!

still interested. :)

Speaking of which, in regards to your spycraft 2.0 game, are you supplying pre-generated characters?
