[QUOTE="JVisgaitis, post: 3482528, member: 4177"] Its nice to get some official answers even though they didn't really answer too much of what I was looking for. I do miss the days when Ryan et al were more frequent on these boards. As to Scott's questions of what I would like to see, here's my hopes (and yeah, some of this are pretty far fetched, but what the hell): • Online character generator that is Mac/PC compatible and allows me to store all of the information for my character(s). This would allow easy print output as a full character sheet so that if I forget my character at home, I retrieve my character by logging into the website. • A digital tabletop that allows me as a DM to easily manage a game from a laptop. If I bring up a monster, all of its abilities are hyperlinked so to see the rules on grappling, I click on grappling and voilà no more page flipping. • HTML versions of all of the books I own that are all easily hyperlinked (see d20srd.org for an example). Online versions of the book are updated frequently with errata. • Monster generator for DMs that puts all of the monster creation rules in the Monster Manual in a digital format and calculates all of the skill bonuses, hit points, ranks, etc. • A huge reservoir of NPCs, adventure hooks, character backgrounds, artwork, locations, for Players and DMs that is added to every month. • An interactive online experience for playing games over the internet via VOIP. This would include official sanctioned tournaments by Wizards, postings to find and join games, and various timeslots so people can play all over the world. • A 3d NPC builder that allows players and DMs to create 3d models of their characters and NPCs. Includes equipment and clothes to customize the look of characters (see Oblivion and various MMOs). • A WYSIWYG Campaign Website creator for a DM to use to easily create a website for his games. Think MySpace for D&D Campaigns. I cannot possibly stress how IMPORTANT it is to have Mac and PC compatibility. If anything, please make sure this works on my Mac. [/QUOTE]
