The Palm/Pocket PC Thread

[Valavien]

Hi all,

To make it easier for everyone I am going to start this thread/faq.

Whoever has made, is making or knows of useful D20 software for their Palm or Pocket PC, should post a link and let us know how to get it or how it's going etc. I will collate the links into this first post as we get them. By keeping all of the posts to this thread we wont have so many repeat questions and it will make it easier for everyone. Not everyone can search

Sorry, I've been out of the country for a couple of weeks, so I've not had the chance to reply.

I've created two standalone PocketC apps for PalmOS PDAs.

Jump Calculator
With a couple of taps you can find the DC for someone to clear any kind of jump distance (running long jump, high jump etc) and you can select any common movement rate from 15ft to 60ft. Similarly you can easily find the distance covered by a jump check instantly.


Craft Calculator
Simplify the crafting process! Input the value in sp, the DC and the skill check modifier, and either select "take 10" or "use skill rolls" and it will calculate the total time and the total cost (including excess for bad failures). It even keeps a little scrolling display so you can see how each weeks progress went.

Both are available on the ENworld electronic aids page - I can't give you the link right now since it seems to be undergoing maintenance.

Cheers

PocketDM

I have an app for handhelds running the PocketPC 2002 OS called PocketDM. You can access the download here[url].

It's still being worked on, but it is intended to be used for quickly and easily accessing character information during a game session. It's companion product (it's big brother), Campaign Manager, is a desktop application for campaign & character management. Campaign Manager offers all of the rules and features for creating a character, and it will allow you to export your character to PocketDM.
