[QUOTE="Vascant, post: 2469279, member: 13927"] Thats why I want a free version available, there is a big difference from reviewing software from a book. If I have a free version available, then each and every person can come to their own opinion and I can work on how to educate people to get the most out of NPC Designer. As most of my current users can tell you, this is far more then just a generator, while that very samething is a strength for NPC Designer it is also its weakness. Thats where I am at now, how to help people learn to get the most out of it. If someone wants to review it, I want to have a technical chat with that person before hand. If the person does not understand software or computers then why bother reviewing? Good or bad I don't care but in either case, I want to know why. If I don't know why, I can't use that as a model if good.. or resolve if bad. Thats why on my beta test team, I have people know their way around a computer very well and some are not so knowledge (my wife included there). As a developer, I need that perspective to make sure NPC Designer is heading in the right direction. As I told a publisher last night, my goal is not to sell software.. I started this with one desire, to create the best software. I want NPC Designer on "Every" windows computer, so I started it for free. That only showed just how much I understand people sometimes, it didn't do anything. Now that we have added some value to the product, what a change. People are getting involved now, I enjot it. I have a ton of work to do on the site to help make people more aware of what NPC Designer can do and how they can make it do what they desire. My focus at this time is making sure my current NPC Designer customers are happy and NPC Designer - Modern. If Ghostwind or someone else wishes to talk, I am pretty easy to get in touch with.
