I did get my money back. Today.And I certainly don't go in for the Coke vs Pepsi vs Whatever, it does come down to tastes.But I'm hearing things like "it's a good first step" "they'll patch it up" and other various [IMHO] "I'll Settle" statements.I AM PISSED OFF at this product.I wanted something that RAWKED PCGen, I wanted it to run JB Generators outta town! [No Offense JB - Just effect] I didn't shell out cash for "a good first step" - [I'm not picking or call out nobody]geez...guys, this ain't Quake, WarCraft III or some CAD program.The database is in there - I checked it out, what the HELL is up with the GUI?? WTF is a 1.5 jpg doing being used as a movable (choppy)background?? And I guess they didn't know about existing GUI standards[protocols??] - like mouseover tooltips, Non-Modal windows, or the concept of Parent-child windows.with MFC you'd have gotten all these things FREE - heck, you're already more than there - MSAccess, you got the windows API in there, a C++ ODBC wrapper DLL (hint for c++ programmers out there) - just write & compile it all under MSVC++(not plugging it, just making an Observation, I'm a merc programmer - I use whatever you pay me enough to. I ain't cheap though!!)Fellas - I ain't nit-picking, this was offensive to me, I expect this type of thing from Bob & Jay AKA 2DuDez Softwarezz.but you know what - THEY even write better stuff than this.I can't get excited about some 3rd party joe - doing what shoulda been in the box.I wanted this baby to RAWK, I'm stoked on my 3rd editon GreyHawk games, Stoked about my newly fledged NWN games, I wanted this baby to be the One Ring.It didn't deliver for me, I already have what it gives, it doesn't beat (IMO) anything thats already out there. It should have. The PCGen folks (No offense) should have been fearing this day. It coulda been good.I got back muh $30 - got me some Minsky's Pizza a six-pack o' Guiness, and my honey-bunny's bringing LotR over - so I ain't mad! Just don't understand how can a body "settle" for this piece of software from two companys that should know better and can do better. I don't get it.</blockquote>
