Online Character Builder is LIVE!

[samursus]

A few more addenda: I was able to create and save a character using the L4E pbp point-buy (3 extra points). It doesn't like it (didn't check off the Abilities tab when done) but allowed me to save.

Second I was able to create a Warpriest MC Druid. It prompted me to choose a Druid At-Will and converted it into an Encounter. Greater than expected functionality in that respect.

I'll also add my disappointment for the lack of a math breakdown on the Power numbers.

This this is certainly a moment where he who opens his mouth proves himself to be the fool. They'd have been better off claiming it was a server issue, and fixing the program, than actually admitting the program is bugged all to heck.

According to WotC_Trevor, this is not a problem with the program, nor is it a problem with the server not being able to handle the load, but rather a non server-load problem with the server itself.

Ugh

I running the CB in Safari 5 on a laptop running Mac O X 10.6.5.

I created Ugh the Barbarian, a level 1 Half-Orc Barbarian for my Norse campaign. I originally created him in the old CB, but rather than import him, I just built him from the ground up.

Not bad. I had one crash, when I entered weight and height info beyond the range. I suspect it was the same issue that's been plaguing the other early adopters. Ugh was brought back after the crash though.

My only gripe is that I can't select one of the awesome portraits I have sitting on my computer. (Ugh's a Larry Elmore fan.)

I then created a brand new PC. I level 1 Human Monk in Dark Sun. No crashes this time. My only problem is that the CB doesn't include the Monk's +3 Proficiency bonus to unarmed attacks. Tisk tisk.

So, the server is buggy. Wow, I dunno if that's better or worse.

It is inconvenient having to chose each power of the same category individually (cantrips e.g.).

I am really no expert in coding, but shouldn´t it be possible to select both at once having reduced grey time?

All this wait and it didn't work on Chrome and I can't use it on my netbook (1024x600) at the hotel... while trying to create a normal char I can't see an ok button after selecting setting... and upper text is also cut out.

Total piece of garbage. Another digital epic fail from Wotc.

Anyone try loading a character from the old CB? It keeps hanging up on me on the gray loadscreen every time I try...

Same here... after the third attempt it just hangs completely.

As a professional developer I'd be embarrased to let something like this go live. Version 0.1 indeed...

How do you delete an item from the equipment list? I only see that you can de-select an item.

I made an Essential character (level 9) but wish to swap some of the magic items it chose for it.

It works on my copy of Chrome on my laptop running Windows 7.

Cheers!

How did you even get it to do that much?

EDIT: Nevermind. You can still click the +/- buttons to raise or lower stats after you've hit the max.
