Bringing the thread back so it can show up in search. There is Aaron Oliver's unofficial errata at http://RCerrata.redirectme.net

Wacom works great. I love my Wacom. I only use it for some personal maps (not an artist) but I can speak to the compatibility.

You might have a hardware or a software problem. When holding down the keys to reset PRAM, you should see the screen flash between grey and black as long as you hold down the keys. When the screen flashes to grey, you should also hear the startup chime. This is handled by the EFI before the OS...

I had a similar setup before. The thing I linked to has two output connections so you can plug them in.

There used to be a Belkin one for this for 30-pin devices. The best I can find right now is http://www.sw-box.com/1-2M-8-Pin-Lightning-Sync-Charger-Car-USB-With-3-5mm-AUX-Audio-Cable-For-iPhone-5-iPod-Touch-5.html . The Lightning cable no longer supplies analog audio pins, so the adapter would...

I haven't found games to use that many threads. My quad-core hyper threaded i7 hasn't been fully utilized in the games I have played, but ymmv depending on the games you play. For $1k you will certainly not get a large enough ssd to put much on. But if you can get a big ssd, it is awesome to...

One comment: I say gigE, because some cable providers will already burst over 100Mbps, and if you want to share files between computers, gigE is a lot faster. But if your ISP isn't there and you aren't running a lot on your local network, don't worry about it.

This is exactly what statutory damages are for. If the copyright is registered before infringement (or within 3 months of publication) plaintiffs can get up to $150k in damages per work. It wouldn't take a lot of those to get Shipman out of business. However, I'm willing to guess that most...

That's a value, not a fact. I'm sure that you wash your clothing by hand in the river so you don't lose the knack, right?

Why? (FWIW, even dumb phones have had phonebooks for decades. They just didn't sync.)

When you open my document, click on Tools, Forms, then Edit: Then, click on Other Tasks, Document Javascripts Then you should see a window like this pop up:

I've updated my sample PDF. It now has two document-level javascripts. To edit those, go into Form Edit mode, click Other Tasks, then select Document Javascripts. The first script sets up a global variable with the stat bonuses: global.racialStatMods = {}; global.racialStatMods['Elf'] = {}...

In that case, try the PDF I have linked above. You may have caught some additional characters in the copy/paste from the forum. I also updated the formula a bit because I had a bug from 11-20.

Which version of acrobat do you have? I ran this in Acrobat XI. It may need tweaking for earlier versions. Let me know what you have and I can install it.

I've put together a quick mockup to help us discuss things. I would not use a dictionary for this. Here's what I would do: var rank = this.getField("RankRow1").value var value = 0 if (rank > 20) { value = 10*5 + 10*2 + (rank - 20) } else if (rank > 10) { value = 10*5 + (rank - 20)*2 }...

Could you spell out an example of what you want to do? I haven't really tried javascript in Acrobat, but I have it, and I'm a web developer, so I'd be willing to spend an hour or so figuring it out. (For a similar reason: I'd like an auto calculating RCD&D sheet.)

Which existing system was that? 1e was completely different from 2e. I didn't play with psionics in 3e or 4e, but I suspect they were completely different again, since neither 1e nor 2e were at all wizard-like. Psionics is one of those things that just haven't found the right system. I think...

I use a VCS for my campaign documents, like house rules, setting background, etc. Originally it was CVS, then darcs and now git. With documents, it's handy to be able to back things out, test out major formatting changes, etc. I haven't used branching, because I really haven't had the need for...

Where I'm going is perhaps more a difference between "Rules stopping fun? Skip the rule" and "Rules stopping fun? Don't skip the rule, you're doing it wrong, do this instead."

This quote is interesting if you consider it in light with his books Mastering the Game and Dungeon Mastery. It's been years since I read them, so I may misremember some things, but what I got from them was the idea that there is a platonic ideal in "The Game", and the closer you hewed to that...
