Hey Scott, if you want Morlocks, go to page 114 of the Monster Manual. There you will find the Grimlock, which is essentially the same thing...

The honour system sounds very similar to the Pendragon system of virtues. Anyone remember those? Great game that. As for issue 300, I hoped they wouldn't make a 'mature' issue to support Book of Vile Darkness, which I think is a bad idea for a product in the first place. Some kid is going to...

Here's a logical question... Wouldn't having to license material make PCGen costly for the programmers? Wouldn't PCGen then stop being free? Hate to see that happen. And yes, if you load PCGen 3 in the same folder as your previous version, it will keep/not write over the old lst files. Lucky...

Oh, and for those of you that still think ETools users outnumber PCGen users, lay off the pipe. The thing hasn't been out long enough or been released in any large numbers, so I really doubt it replaced PCGen overnight. Hell, my friend Derek over at Talon ordered 5 of the things and they only...

BreakDaddy, I'm using 2.7 at the moment. I plan to download 3 and move my lst files over, however. I suspect that if you aren't finding the statblock printouts under File-Export, that they've been removed for some reason, but that they can be replaced by just placing the old character sheet...

And as I said, it's not what we called for, but what they assumed we called for. We wanted them to stop jerking around with the online gaming stuff and get on with the CG and campaign tools. I don't recall anyone saying anything about the interface. They took it to another extreme altogether...

Why not? They used the same business logic to completely revamp the FR products. One book didn't sell well, so they changed the direction of the entire line. So why not take one comment 'we want tools, not toys,' which I believe refered to the 3d mapper and models, and totally blow it out of...

Do you offer an access database in your programme, Luke? If not than I'm afraid you're SOL. This whole thing would be moot if WOTC had expanded their SRD like they said they would, in Good Faith, mind you. But as I've said, the SRD is a tool for them to get OUR material, not open up theirs, so...

Actually, the fact that they didn't resort to a C&D order and just asked that non-SRD material be taken out irritates me even more. They don't want to look like the bad guys and hurt sales, so they subtley hobbled the competition to make themselves look friendly and force consumers to purchase...

Considering the lack of ETools availability around the US, and the limited scope of that programme, I highly doubt its users outnumber PCGen users. Especially since Mac users can use PCGen without PC Emulators. The Core books do sell well, by the way. That's the best selling item. It has to be...

Actually, PCGEN can filter the information you use. You only have to select the books you want from the various companies, and if you open up a character that used that set of books, you can start a new one with the exact same selections of materials. I use the Core D&D books, the Class Books...

Sure. Under file, goto Export. Select Standard. This will provide you with a number of options including several different types of statblocks, including the standard WOTC one. I use this all the time when creating monsters and NPC encounter lists. Hope this helps...:cool: As for using the...

Just to clarify my first question, when I ask about using the 3 Core books, I mean just those three. I want to know who uses those, without allowing any other outside material in, whatsoever. I treat any 'official' D&D product as 'Core' material. I know a lot of people call the Class books...

I understand that you're trying to be diplomatic, but to deny you the right to use non-SRD material and then to never update the SRD so that ETools will have no other competition when it comes to 'official' books, that, my friend, is a spanking, however polite. And you may say that you aren't...

I'm just taking a little poll to see just how useful ETools is to a lot of you. Hence the question: Is your camapign strictly by the three Core Books? If not, how has this limited the usefullness of ETools, and had WOTC not spanked PCGen to knock out some competition, would you even use it? I...

I'm not surprised in the least. I mentioned this many times on the WOTC board as well as Fluid's. The reason the SRD hasn't been updated in forever was always in my mind a way for WOTC/HASBRO to keep complete control of those properties for just this reason. And now it seems, I am proven...

My only problem is that I've just entered Chapter 2 and I'm already 10th level. And I actually missed some of the indie quests (saving the Zoo Animals, various henchmen quests) from the previous chapter! At this rate, I'll have maxed out by the middle of chapter 3.

Once again, it's not about how crunchy or fluffy a book needs to be to sell well. The books sell and make a profit, that is not the problem. The Problem is how much profit is enough profit, The reason increasing profit needs to be made, as is evidenced by recent events, is not for the growth...

IMHO, the point is about how much profit is enough profit. The reason increasing profit needs to be made, as is evidenced by recent events, is not for the growth of the company, or even the stock held by the public. It is for the largess of the CEO and other company execs. Seriously, you need...

I am an old hand at this... These are a few of the things I've done... 1. Let them find a mislabled grenade that turned out to be a tacnuke. Then handed out so many posthumous treason points for the massive destruction of a whole sector that their next two clones were excecuted as soon as...
