[QUOTE="Drawmack, post: 3258642, member: 4981"] I have been actively participating in [URL=http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=184242&page=3]this thread[/URL] where it seems an aweful lot of people of clamoring for software to support d20. Here's the deal I would be interested in organizing and working on this project. I'd like to do it as open source software. I estimate that I'll need at least 4 other programmers helping me with this for it to be produced in anywhere near a timely manor. We'll also need testers, data entry, and documentation writters. So I'm talking about a pretty big collaboration here. Here are the rules 1) It must meet the [URL=http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/d20stlv6.rtf]d20 STL[/URL] and the [URL=http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/d20Guidev5.rtf]d20 Style Guide[/URL]. This means [indent]a) no Hit Point generation[/indent] [indent]b) no Ability Score generation[/indent] [indent]c) the Program Cannot automatically determine success or failure[/indent] [indent]d) for more information please see the definition of Interactive Game in the d20 Style Guide[/indent] [indent]e) cannot tell the character when to level based on their xp[/indent] 2) It must comply to the [URL=http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/OGLv1.0a.rtf]OGL[/URL] Also please refer to [URL=http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20/oglfaq/20040123i]OGL Software FAQ[/URL] to ensure a feature can be included in such a product. Here is the query, or challenge if you will: Tell me what you want that is within the rules. You may request that it run on a given platform. You may request features. You may request storage of certain things. As long as they do not break the OGL, STL, SG, or FAQ I'd be more then happy to include them. Also if you are a programmer or interested in writting documentation, performing data entry or testing the software feel free to say that in this thread as well. So now it's your turn, let's build a wish list. [/QUOTE]
