DM Familiair vs. Campaign Suite vs. others...

Re: Re: Campaign Log/Data Storage

There are two that come to mind: MyInfo (http://www.milenix.com/myinfo.php) and ActionOutline (http://www.greenparrots.com). Both used to have free versions; I think now they just have trial/commercial ones.

Bruce, you're the man! It was MyInfo. Thanx so much!

Not sure if I mentioned this on this thread, but Campaign Suite has a statblock export specifically designed to integrate with DM's Familiar, so you can make characters in CS and then use them in the DMF battle board.

There will be more integrations coming, making both applications more usable

Aside from Campaign Suite having a decent ability work with the statblock's in DMF, I have been toying with DM Genie and the same statblock export works well in DM Genie. YOu have to adjust the BAB, AC, equipment and spells though.

However, for charcter creation, putting a whole module in a program, and adding anything without using code, Campaign Suite serves all my needs when coupled with DMF or DMG.

Thanks for bumping.

As a new owner of a shiny new laptop, this question had been much on my mind.

Off to download eval copies...

I'm in the process of testing a set of templates to create 'infinite NPCs' .. Basically, skills, feats, stats, etc all randomly determined for everything from bartenders to bouncers to towns guards... These are based off of the statblocks presented in 'Everyone Else' so there is a lot of variety here. One of my testers has said this has helped his gaming through his laptop a lot since he can call up stats on NPCs in just a couple of clicks without having to print. Hope that helps some
