Message: <blockquote data-quote="MJEggertson" data-source="post: 610272" data-attributes="member: 845">I've considered doing something similar too. But two things stopped me.1. Time. I don't think I'd get out of grad school before I was thirty if I took on a project that size.2. For various reasons, I never thought there'd be enough interest. I doubt many people would run their own servers, and running a central server has other issues.Though, while playing with the idea, I did implement a character sheet sharing tool, which works much like what you described. I thought about what the most useful feature of a program like that would be, and figured character sheet sharing would be top the list. You could prepare characters ahead of time, or post them for online/forum games. Any modifications could be checked by the DM ahead of time. Or if your sheet is forgotten at home, it's available for download. (See the 3EProfiler link in my sig).I still like the idea of a campaign manager like what you describe, and I'd like to work on one someday. The other thing with me though, is I'm not a fan of software that implements any large amount of rules. In the end, no matter how customizeable, I always find it too restrictive and not nearly as convenient as a pad of paper and the source books. If I were to implement a campaign manager like you mentioned, I'd also go out of the way to make it quite generalized.Maybe some day.-Michael</blockquote>
