The software contains several related tools designed to assist with hosting and playing Dungeons & Dragons campaigns, though it can be altered to work with most games that use the d20 System.HistoryThe first incarnation of this software program was as a software demo that was simply called "Character Generator," which came free with early printings of the 3rd Edition Player's Handbook. A software patch was eventually released to fix the most glaring data errors and bugs. This early version is now available as a free download from Fluid Entertainments website.Soon after this release, WotC announced that a software tool they called Master Tools was in development. Under this product name, WotC and Fluid Entertainment (their chosen developers) originally announced that the program would include not only a character and monster generator, but many other advanced campaign tools such as a 3D map making tool. However, for various reasons the scope of the project was reduced drastically over time and many changes were made during development cycle. Due to these changes, the project was eventually renamed to "E-Tools: Character and Monster Generator".The initial full-version was released in 2002 at Gen Con. At first, the software was very limited and did not have the versatility demanded by many Dungeon Masters. WotC quickly moved to address many concerns and released a large patch three months after the initial release. In addition, several free third party add-on programs, such as Davin's "ET Helper," were created to allow the insertion of custom content.WotC then contracted Code Monkey Publishing (CMP) to continue software bug fixes and improvements, handing them control of future e-Tools development and granting them a license to distribute all published D&D rules content in database form for use with e-Tools as well as the Open Source PCGen character generation software. Improvements to the software at this stage included major bug and data fixes as well as eventual introduction of optional 3.5 Edition D&D rule data sold separately by CMP. CMP's developmental involvement lasted until November 30, 2006 when WotC declined an extension of their agreement. A company representative simply explained their decision as being "because of future product considerations". YOU MUST ACCEPT THE TERMS OF THE LICENSE IF YOU ARE GOING TO BID ON THIS AUCTIONFrom the Wizard of the Coast Website: 2/24/2003Code Monkey Publishing has agreed to provide a patch for Wizard's E-Tools. This patch for the E-Tools program, which will fix a lengthy list of bugs, will be completed and made available within 90 days to Wizards of the Coast. Code Monkey Publishing will also provide initial and continued support for E-Tools through <a href="http://www.wizards.com/%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20/leaving.asp?url=/leaving.asp?url=http://www.codemonkeypublishing.com&origin=dnd_dnd_20030224a" target="_blank">their website</a>, which will be the official E-Tools website henceforth.

Box 707, Renton, Washington 98057-0707 I am selling of all my purchased datasets for PCGEN and Etools that I obtained from Code Monkey publishing.   These datasets were legally produced by them for WOTC under license.   I have all the original receipts for these datasets and will provide them as proof of transfer of the license.These datasets cost approximately $450.00 when purchased.   They can no longer be sold by code monkey because WOTC revoked the license in 2007.    Code Monkey is providing support for this software through December 31, 2008.   It is unlikely that they will patch the datasets for E-Tools however. I am also including an original CD of the Etools program itself along with the patch to bring it to the latest version of the program.   The latest version is 1.666.  You must also accept that license agreement if you are going to bid.SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY PLEASE READ THIS LICENSE CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING THE SOFTWARE.  BY USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU ARE AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE.  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE, DELETE THE SOFTWARE AND ALL RELATED FILES FROM YOUR COMPUTER, AND PROMPTLY RETURN THIS PACKAGE AND ITS CONTENTS TO THE PLACE OF PURCHASE.
