Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zub" data-source="post: 1232794" data-attributes="member: 6211">I don't think most PCGen users care about CMP, or the BoD.  I think what they care about is the data.  I think for too long we kept reading that CMP was becoming the sole source for data files from this or that publisher, while at the same time, PCGen itself had fewer sources then it did in 2.7 or whatever.  I think that was the cause of the distrust.  At least it is in my case. And I'm not even talking about Splat books.  I remember at one point I had FFG's Guide to the Galaxy, then all of a sudden it (and many other sources) was gone. Soon,  PCGen had evolved to the point where my old files no longer worked with it.I'd like three things to happen:1) Just start releasing data again. Let those lst files flow.  I don't care if they are 10% buggy, that means that they are 90% is usable.2) somehow create a way to manually over ride every field.  This helps in case of buggy files or if I add a feat that I don't know how to properly code.  If I create a feat that for example increases the attack bonus of my offhand weapon, - I ahve no idea how to code that to make it work.  I'd like a way to just overide it, so that it gets printed out correctly on my sheet.  I know that it might not be easy to implement, but it will help people deal with buggy list files.3)  Get the list editors working.  That should be the number one priority.  Nothing should be coded by hand that can't be duplicated by the list editors.Don't release new functionality until the list editors can handle it, because that's the first thing that people like me try to use. I used to use PCGen exclusively.  I used to really love it.  It used to actually *save* me time.  I'd like it to become that way again.  Those are my thoughts and opinions.   I hope they were semi-coherant.</blockquote>
