Looking for a really good d20 Combat Tracker

I have also used both apps, and I prefer DMG. Both applications are robust, but, I like the added flexibility I get with DMG vs DMF (scripting feats, conditions, etc). I would say there is more of a learning curve with DMG, as compared to DMF, but, this shouldn't be a deterrent for anyone considering the purchase. Both apps have a strong following from users with custom-built add-ons in the Yahoo Groups forums.

Do you all recommend DMF over DM Genie?

No. I recommend DMF for people who demand not having a learning curve. I personally use DM Genie and find it a much more 'complete solution'. The learning curve seems steep, but once you start using it (in my experience) it's a pretty easy tool to use.

So the bug is now fixed. RC2 should contain that bug fix.

One thing to understand, is we try to get to things as quickly as we can - but bugs like this should always be repaired before a production release. As per usual, the beta/alpha releases are always riskier.

we opened a new bug, but I just closed yours now that loading gmi files is working again.

If it's not fixed for you ,please open up your bug again, and assign it to soulcatcher.

I'll check it out at my first opportunity and let you know if I have any further problems. Thanks.

I'm a DM Genie user myself but started out with DM Familiar. That was more than a year ago so i couldn't give a good comparison between the 2. DMG does everything i need a program for. Keep campaign notes, create adventures with maps, random encounter tables, tokens. It manages my players characters and my NPCs, it permits me to create any new thing i want (spell, feat, skill, magical item, class, template. It generates the weather, keep track of time, and handles every combat situation i can throw at it. Frankly, if it could bring me my slippers and keep my beverages cold while at the gaming table, i'd marry the thing :)
