Though the D&D forum but then noticed that this forum actually seems to have more 4e threads than the D&D forum presently.This is a thread devoted specifically to a 4e clone that I will work on. Still trying to figure out which SRD or OGL (or PRD) I will be using. PRD could be the easiest to actually use to make it, though I'm open to any and all suggestions. This thread is for me to post what I've worked on, everyone to critique those ideas and hopefully make it better, for suggestions or thoughts on how to proceed, and various other ideas. It may be I would be the only one posting in this if it turns out this is an unpopular idea, or it could explode. I'm unsure.I'll post what my concerns are as well as my primary goals just starting out with. This next part is a repost from where I decided I could start work on a 4e Clone.Working on a 4e OSR would mean I would want it to be able to be seamless with 4e, which would also include the XP tables for 4e. If not the XP tables, at least something that can be somewhat similar to how 4e did XP (Pathfinder seems to have a closer XP table than 3e did, and closer at lower levels than 5e does...though if the 5e SRD allows us to change the XP tables I could change the numbers to be more in accordance with 4e XP advancement).I think I'll get a start on it and repost in a week or two with ideas and go from there. The obstacles I see before me right now would be making it so that it is a 4e clone, but not so close as to be exactly 4e because 4e never had the OGL or SRD with it (and what it did have doesn't leave a lot of area for being exactly the same, so a clone would be a clone in numbers, but not with naming conventions or anything else and have an OGL [or SRD] base).Second obstacle is, as it will be done for free (and hopefully offered for free), I have no art budget...And third would be how to publish it. I've published things on DMs guild before and other places, but never something like this so no idea where to get it put up and published. I don't think this would fall under the purview or rules of DMs guild and RPGnow might not be the place for it either. That means, I'm not sure where to put it or get it made available for everyone that might want it...but I'm absolutely open to suggestions.Other than that, I think I can get a good start on it. My main objectives would be...#1 - Make it as seamless as 4e as possible...aka...basically as close to a direct 4e clone as possible#2 - Make it easy to use and switch between pure 4e and the 4e clone rules...ala...something like the clones are now between what they clone and the edition they cloned.#3 - Make it easy to understand...I figure I'll start work on it this weekend. My idea is work steadily on it and probably post updates at first every 1 1/2 to 2 weeks at a time. Is there a way to make Google Docs easily accessible to people or is there a way to make a document that most can read? Formatting could be a pain trying to transfer it from a Word document or PDF to the forum format here.</blockquote>
