Can we get a sheet that displays the non-modified ability scores (via
STATx.LEVELy.NOEQUIP)? Perhaps either in (or before) the Temp Scores columns?

Actually, it has nothing to do with the TYPE=Enhancement.  He could have
just had BONUS:COMBAT|AC|2 and would still have gotten the same result.

The BONUS statements in a Feat only get applied once.  If you want it to be
dynamic, you need a COUNT.  Here we come to one of the weaknesses.   You
would need to define a new TYPE. like TYPE:General.ACEnhance, so you could
use COUNT[FEATTYPE=ACEnhance] within the formula. (in this case,
2*COUNT[FEATTYPE=ACEnhance].

TMs:  Can we get a tracker on that one if it doesn't exist?
COUNT[FEATNAME=something%]  This is becoming more and more necessary.  I
have a "Windfall" Type feat just for the above workaround in Modern.

is it a +2 Dodge bonus it gives? Dodge is the only typ of AC bonus that
stacks.

This is because by the rules themselves, enhancement bonuses do not
stack;  each time you add the feat you are adding a new +2 enhancement
bonus.  Although you are specifying the proper tag in the feat that says
the FEAT stacks, the basic rules of the game regarding that type of
bonus says otherwise.  Therefore, you end up only getting the effect of
one of the bonuses, no matter how many times you add it.

I think what you'd want to do is use COUNT to determine how many times
the feat has been selected and add a bonus of 2* this value.

That may be true when dealing with bonuses from different sources, but this guy
is trying to create a feat that explicitly and specifically stacks with itself.

"When we can't dream any longer, we die." - Emma Goldman

In  fact, this feat is like the "inertial armor" feat and should work exactly
the same way
BUT with the possibility to be taken multiple time with a +4 bonus the first
time and a +2
bonus the following times (As long as pp>0)

For now, I settled it the following:

Inertial Armor 2 TYPE:Psionic PREFEAT:1,Inertial Armor PPREVARGTEQ:Manifester,1
DESC:(...)
BONUS:COMBAT|AC|6|TYPE=Enhancement

Inertial   Armor   3   TYPE:Psionic  PREFEAT:1,Inertial  Armor  1 
PREVARGTEQ:Manifester,1
DESC:(...) BONUS:COMBAT|AC|8|TYPE=Enhancement

and  so  on...  I  know  that  this  does  not take into account the PP>0
condition, but I
preferred to settle it this way since I am quiet sure a Psionic character will
95% of the
time a PP reserve over 0

Yet,  if  there  was  a  possibility to make the whole bunch in only one feat
lst line, it
would be great... but reading your answers, I guess this will be hard.

In  fact,  I  encountered  the  same problem with a feat (see below) which
should enable a
character  to  choose  1 additional psionic power from his class list. The feat
works, but
does not stack... is there a possibility to make it stack?

Extra Power (0 lvl) TYPE:Psionic PREVARGTEQ:Manifester,1 DESC:(...)
MULT:YES STACK:YES CHOOSE:bonus 0st lvl power
BONUS:SPELLKNOWN|TYPE=PSIONIC;LEVEL=0|1

It  works  fine  the first time you chose the feat, adding 1 additional 0 level
power. But
when chosen a 2nd time, it does not stack...

Is  there  a  TAG which returns the hightest power level available (or spell
level) by the
character  at  his  current  level?  It  would  be  to  make  a feat with the
prerequisite
HIGHTESTPOWERLEVEL>5 for example.

While tumbling through the feat lst file, I noted a little bug:

1/ Give your Char the feat (whatever)

2/ save your char, exit PCGEN

3/ Go to the lst file and remove (or rename) this feat

4/ if you reopen your char in PCGEN, you will get "feat not found" error message
(which is
normal of course)

But  now,  that  feat will not display any more on the character screen (nor
sheet) (which
could  be  normal)  BUT the feat-slot is LOST... (and you could thus have a
human PSW, 3rd
level with only 2 feats and 0 slots available... ARGH ;)

is  there  a  way  to  go  around this? For example to "refresh" the total
number of feats
available?

I realize that the provided lst files are beta, but I'd just like to bring to
your attention the following ad bugs in case you haven't already corrected them:
Proficiencies are not named the same; giving yourself Personal Firearm
Proficiency doensn't make you proficient in any firearms because the names are
spelled different (Personal Firearms Weapon Proficiency instead).
Sometimes weapons equipped do not show up at all.
Class Defense does not work.
That's about it so far, other than Occupation things which I dont think have
even been integrated into PCGen yet.
Good luck finishing this, and keep up the good work!

Has anyone else had problems with PCGen locking up your PC
- it happens everytime when I exit PCGen

PC is WinXP Pro SP1, Java was 1.4.1 and then 1.4.1_01, PCGen was
4.1.7 and then 4.2.0

I've removed both Java 1.4.1 and 1.4.1_01, as luckily I still had
1.3.1 on my machine. Glad to say PCGen exits fine with 1.3.1

I've had the same problem, it proved to be a bug in *_01 java.

All you have to do, is to carefully uninstall all you javas, delete
java* directories from "Program Files", reboot and install latest java.
Everything should be fine. At least it worked for me.

Seems likely. (Though I think I remember that there was some kind of

Actually, that's not neccessarily true. Consider the old english
system for instance (see

details.)

Whoever it was who was writing this has recently returned to work (at
least he asked for where his old Coin class had gone to) so hopefully
this will be taken care of soon.

In the output sheet (this is the pdf sheet as an example) replace this:

<fo:block font-size="9pt" font-family="ZapfDingbats">qqqqq qqqqq
qqqq|%||%Monk=8|q q|%||%Monk=9|qq|%||%Monk=10|qq|%|

q|%||%Monk=19|qq|%||%Monk=20|qq|%||%Monk=7|
</fo:block>

with this:

<fo:block font-size="8pt" font-family="ZapfDingbats">
	 |FOR.0,MonkLevels,5,q,, ,|
</fo:block>

Note: This will only work with 4.2.0 as that is the first version with the
new Monk stuff.

I don't know about soon, but he *is* making progress.  Unfortunately, some
things, such as the location of various code pieces, have changed rather
significantly since he was last able to work on it, so much of his time so
far has been taken up by finding where all those pieces are now located.

Now he has to figure out where the equipment objects are actually
instantiated, and have their costs set, so he can test out whether or not
the values are being set properly.

You can edit the number of feats left, by just typing in the edit box...
Change the number of feats left from 0 to 1 on the feats page and Robert is
your fathers brother.

In phbspells.lst Hold Monster has the tag
CLASSES:Bard=4|Sorcerer,Wizard=6 Should be 5 on the sor/wiz according
to SRD. It is a 6th level domain spell (for Law?).

Hi, Bryan et al:

In the Welcome file, could you please add brief definitions for:
- OGL
- D20
- SRD

D20 might be intuitively obvious, but OGL and SRD are just random letters
unless you happen to know what they mean. And they are, of course,
*critical* (especially SRD) to understanding why certain material isn't
available yet, thus cutting down on the noise on this board.

Thanks,

Folks,

Using a beta from Sourceforge this past Friday (not at home, don't have
the version # handy).  I think this is just a UI issue.  In the item
customizer for weapons, the * burst (flaming burst, etc) descriptive
text shows the extra damage as something like (typing from memory)
(%d10|CRITMULT-1).  I think it shows up properly on the output sheets.
Is it possible to get these descriptive strings parsed so they show up
with a value as opposed to the formula?

Really minor, just thought I'd let people know.

Cheers,

Anyone else?

Barak, I don't have 4.2 yet so I can't look. does "Not Carried" mean
not on your person, but you own it? as in it's at a keep, storage
place? Or "Not Carried" as in it's a back-up weapon?

It looks like the Monk is missing that, along with the Transform to
Outsider, which I may be able to do now.  Going to look into that this
weekend.   In the mean time, Monks should have DR:20/+1 tag for those
of you
wanting to fix it at home.

The other Feat bit, with a BONUS:DR|+WIS|2*COUNT[FEATTYPE=Tattoo] is
not the
way I think you want to go about it, unless there is a DR:num/+WIS, if
the
WIS will even be substituted in a DR tag, which I doubt.

Tir, also note that the type is "Native Outsider" as opposed to
"Outsider" which then clarifies that the being can be raised from the
dean on the Prime Material plane.

P.S. Sorry for replying to all these old messages, I'm going through
all the email over the long weekend

A link to the relevent parts of the wizards web site might also be a good
idea. Finding the SRD on the wizards site is non trivial (I have only ever
found the PHB one, not the DMG or MM ones (unless they are the same thing))

regards,

another question for a feat:

let's say a feat provides a +2 AC each time you choose the feat. I
tried the following but
it doesn't work...


NameOfMyFeat      TYPE:Psionic     PREVARGTEQ:Manifester,1
DESC:MyDescription     MULT:YES
STACK:YES   BONUS:COMBAT|AC|2|TYPE=Enhancement   CHOOSE:+2 AC

in fact, it will give the +2 AC bonus the first time when chosen, but
not another +2 bonus
when chosen a second time

could you provide a hint please? :-)
</snip>

Even though I'm sure somebody already answered you. It's because
enhancement type doesn't stack. Take out the type and leave it as
unamed, or maybe MISC?

Comments noted. I've modified the blurbs in the welcome file to be
like this.... does this seem more clear?

Is PCGen OGL or D20?
As of version 4.0.0, PCGen is OGL and D20 compliant.  We are in
regular contact with Wizards of the Coast to make sure we stay that
way. The Open Gaming License (OGL) can be found at:
http://www.opengamingfoundation.org/ogl.html
For a description of how the OGL and D20 licenses work, and a
definition of the "Standard Resource Document" (aka SRD) visit:
http://www.wizards.com/d20/article.asp?x=dt20010417b

Where is Wotc's non-SRD material?
Wotc has been very gracious with us and helpful in our process of
becoming, and remaining, OGL and D20 compliant.  We are currently in
discussions with them about their non-SRD material (ForgottenRealms,
splatbooks, dragon magazine items, etc.). We will definitely keep
everyone appraised of any developments in our discussions with Wotc.



Thanks.

Hi All,

I just got Charbeneaud!  I've got a piece of software I'm working on
that was slated for testing at the end of the month.  Two hours ago I
was told it had to be frozen and ready for presentation on the 10th.

Yay me!  This is gonna suck!

You might want to include the WotC link instead, as that's the
official site.

Shouldn't it be "System Reference Document" instead?
