The fouth clause can be set to TRUE to do a nice range lookup, I use this a lot for DnD type tables: Table 1 TextA 3 TextB 6 TextC 9 TextD A1= ROUND((RAND() * 9)+1,0) <generate random number 1-10> A2= VLOOKUP(A1,Table,2,TRUE) <Returns TextX based on probability in first row of table>...

I would second that, except I would have say "very" good. It does incorporate some non-standard technology, but that is one of the things I like about it. Check out their site at: IronKingdoms

WOW, I guess I am not going nuts after all. I bought Etools when it first came out, then bought a second copy for my laptop to use at the table. I never really made the connection on two versions, but I kept thinking "I could have sworn you didn't need the CD", "I could have sworn last time I...

Eiffel has two free versions: one for the .NET IDE and one with its own IDE. Both support the .NET framework. The free versions don't have a fancy UML interface and a few other things, but the price is right... Check out the downloads section in the link above.

Have you thought of Eiffel? It has its own development environment or can used as part of .NET and it supports multiple inheritance. It compiles on a number of platforms Windows, Linux, Unix... Mac support is due out soon. I am just starting to learn it after working in VB & C++. Check them...

Have you considered SOAP for remote function calls? I like the XML data transfer, I was unaware that someone was working on a standard set of tags. I will have to see if I can find them!

What do you estimate your space requirements to be? I assume you need ASP and Access from your post. Do you need admin access to the server or just someont to host and send you the Db? Is everything ready to FTP to the server or do you need development assistance?

Luke, If I want to change the ability mod in RPM from SCORE/2-5 to SCORE/3-2, how do I do this?

I appreciate all of the advice everyone has given! This is kind of long; so don't feel the need to respond. Judging by the programs I have seen from you guys, you are all pretty busy. My mind is still trying to come to grips with all of this. Lets look as skills as an example. We have three...

So here is the deal... I just started working on an object oriented character manager/generator. The basic D20 mechanics are in the code. All of the ojects are serialized to xml files ("data"). I can expose the public properties and methods of the objects through XML also, but it is not...

I'll have to reread this thread a bit slower to really give it the thought it requires. Although I am a programer, I work in the Finance Department. I do business modeling. What you are talking about has some similarities. I take all of the data I can get my hands on and present it to...

Bump. Just thought this is great news!:D

One difference is, the PCGen people were coding and distributing WotC material without their permission. In your case above, it is fan created material. You would have an argument if: 1. WotC distributes non WotC material themselves (I doubt it) or 2. PCGen does not distribute WotC...

Is the group focused on modern, historical, fantasy, all of the above...?

Definetly Privateer Press IMO. The Whitchfire Tillogy is the best I have seen yet on value, originality and character development. They even make a good read. The volume is still low, but I am waiting! The campaingn setting is The Iron Kingdoms and the Monsternomicon is due out soon. BTW...
