[QUOTE="wlmartin, post: 6340079, member: 6679380"] I am thinking about making a treasure generator for pathfinder. It will run in excel, you simply pick the treasure budget, pick the parcel (ie coins, coins & gems, spellcaster gear, lair, hoard etc), how many parcels you want and the coding does the rest. It will run a random generator over tables (including nesting tables that require you to roll once on one table, then again on more tables) and even complicated ones like weapons that require you to add bonuses, special qualities and still factor in the value of the item. It will include curses but exclude programming in intelligent items (other than to flag they will be intelligent) since these arent randomly generated, you have to design it using your own decisions. It will be designed to pump this data out into an easy to read page to print or view. I know existing generators do this, such as the popular web based one. I am making this regardless of public interest because, well I like the idea of pressing a button to make my treasure but doing it based on my requirements and in a format I can enjoy. It should take me a few weeks (based on me running the table creation and coding in off-hours) I don't need any help and can sort it out on my own My question is, would anyone benefit from me sharing this, once I am done? If so, please let me know in this thread (and if you want a copy once I am done, please PM me as I may not remember to check the thread) If not, no worries as i am making it for myself anyway [/QUOTE]
