Version 2.00 will be the next release!
Hello fans of ForgedAnvil D&D 5E Character Generator!
It's been awhile between updates so thought I'd keep you in the loop with what's happening. The next release will be 2.00!
I've been very busy with work (which requires a fair bit of international travel) for the last few months and that's taken time away from development work. However things are moving along nicely. The majority of the work has gone into the new CSI design for version 2.00 and there has been a significant upgrade involved with that as well as automation. Thanks to Rob Martin who helped put together some details on the active feature set for implementation (I'm still working implementation buddy)
CSII and CSIV are the next iterations for the design as some elements have move off CSI (e.g. coinage and carrying capacity) and move to other sheets (e.g. CSII for those examples). Once I'm happy with v2.00 it will be released, targeting end of March at this stage, this pretty much coincides with the 1 year anniversary of the original release of the tool.
I've appreciated all the comments, bugs, corrections, ideas etc. as well as your patience between these releases. A big thanks for those who have donated to the beer fund - certainly helped with moving things forward.
Once 2.00 is released you, the user, the DM, the Player will have complete design control over the layout of all CSI through CSV (working on wildshape still). So you can design and play with the "Character Sheet" worksheets however you like. You'll be able to see all variables used to design all the existing 2.00 "Character Sheet" worksheets and customise as you see fit - want bigger text, no problem! want A5, also no problem! want other stuff shown on CSI... well you design it, no problem! If you just love the current 2.00 design then also no problem! Should be a lot of fun for everyone who plays D&D, and it'd be great to see everyones work posted here to share with the community. Anyways, plenty of awesomeness to be had and will probably be the most awesome character generator on the planet for D&D 5e
why, because you designed it!
See below for the original v1.00 CS1 vs v2.00 CSI, a lot has changed! Crazy...
By the way the it looks like the voting up is working again, so take a moment and rate my character generator
