Message: <blockquote data-quote="Pants" data-source="post: 4622123" data-attributes="member: 8849">I currently use HeroForge for making up NPCs and PC's, but it has some quirks that are proving to be slightly annoying:1) As an excel sheet, it runs kinda slooooow at times. Plus, since I'm using Excel 2007, the compatibility mode can make it unreliable at times2) Entering in new stuff is... difficult. Personally, I'm way too lazy to learn how to edit Excel sheets just to make planning my games easier. Say what you want about eTools, but entering new stuff in was pretty easy. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />That said, I've been looking at Dundjinni, RPGXplorer, and Hero Lab, but I'm looking for some feedback from people who have used these. I've used PCGen and, frankly, I didn't care for it that much.Some of the things I noticed:- The output on RPGXplorer looks really nice. Being able to output in the new statblock format is a big plus.- If I ever get a laptop or an EEEPC, I'll probably want to make use of some electronic help for running combat and Dundjinni looks nice for that.I'm going to download the demos to see how they run, but I still want to hear some reviews.Also, I'm running a 3.5 game and I'm unlikely to switch to 4e anytime soon. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
