PCGen 2.6.4 Available

[Leopold]

Lots of changes! Many bug fixes, including a major MM update courtesy of Andrew (Tir Gwaith). Jayme Cox has continued his work on the Equipping tab, and Greg Bingleman's Item Customiser continues to increase in functionality and popularity. Eric Beaudoin has done a nice job making sure all the data files are checked with his handy-dandy scripts, and the feedback we get at the yahoo group from everyone continues to play a crucial role in improving PCGen. The documentation has had a slight face-lift - a new "?" button on the toolbar brings up a help-panel for the Source Materials tab. This will be expanded to have helpful tips for all the tabs in the coming releases. This should help new users get over the learning curve more quickly.

You can right-click on an item in the available table in the Inventory tab to "Customise" it (make a normal item a magical one or just change its size). Anyone wanting to use the "print" button will need the pdf library at http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/pcgen/pdf.zip and unzip it into your PCGen's lib directory (those are the 4 files PCGen will indicate are missing if you try to print without having downloaded that libarary).

Here's the list of Bugs that have been fixed and features that have been added. If you reported one of these, please verify that it is was addressed properly. PCGen is available at http://pcgen.sourceforge.net , and the main discussion group is at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pcgen . Be sure to download both parts of PCGen... pcgen264_part1of2.zip
and pcgen264_part2of2.zip. Please download both files!

We've got some OS-specific installs of PCGen to help those who have trouble installing the generic version.At http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pcgen/files/Alternate PCGen Releases/
you will find a list of these releases which you can use if you have trouble with the version you find here. Please note that there alternate versions are updated by users, so there may be some time lag between when an official release comes out and when the alternate OS-specific release is ready.

How do you do spell memorization? The spell tab page does not have an add button next to the spell book name. Just a del function.

Any idea when the KoK Players' Guide will be in it?

Any idea when the KoK Players' Guide will be in it?

haven't asked the group. The key with that material is that we still have to purchase it or have the publishers send us the required material we need to do it. Since most of us can't afford to buy all the book to do the coding we merely wait till someone inthe group gets it and puts it in. I haven't heard any request for it on the list so if you want to you can post it there..

the first link leads you to a group of servers that house the first file. the second link for the second file. Can you download the files from there?
