just wanted to say hello, I'm working on a few programs involving plot generators, NPC generators etc. I'm using VB6 (vb.net later this summer, but pretty much...
Some of what you're talking about sounds like tablesmith. It's a program that you can basically use to randomly generate info based on tables and criteria you...
... There's also "rand" which basically does the same sorta stuff. http://www.elektrasystems.net/~jimv/rand.htm I'm also looking for more tables for this...
thank you :) this just got depressing... I've looked for similar programs on the internet and never found a damn thing before... Sage (the same guy who did...
thanks dude. that program looks somewhat promising, but you could do it in half the code via Visual Basic... nothing "too" wrong with basic yet, but old MS Dos...
I have a two fold question... might be more as I just had a drink when I got home from work :). First thing, I haven't really been able to find a 'generic'...
I'd like to work on a 'generic' background generator to go with my NPC generator (ie generic backgrounds for the NPCs) but its HARD to do a fully generic...
found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article...
I hope the moderators ban you from the newsgroup. First, it's a moneymaking scam and has no place in this group (Duh! That should have been obvious to the...
Truly generic backgrounds are possible, but I recommend breaking them up into seperate genres so that you can have them fit better. Although some things such...
ban who? its a quick name someone made up to run through the newsgroups that don't have locks on new members. even if you banned him, he'd be back tomorrow (or...
From: "acryingstatue" <acryingstatue@...> ... I've done this with other groups I moderate but this group gets a reasonable turnover so I'd left it open....
Hi all, I have released a new version of my die-roll calculator "Roll". You can get it at http://www.diku.dk/~torbenm/Dice.zip . New features: - Definition of...
I'm not critisizing you, just pointing out that theres not a whole lot to do other than delete the post. by the way, I'm new here this is a pretty nice place...
Hi all, I have updated my planet generator program and put the new version up on my homepage (http://www.diku.dk/~torbenm). You will need a C compiler to...
... I've done that with the pcgen-xml list. It takes almost no time, even though I perform some minimal research on the user -- make sure it looks like a real...
you do xml? you know if theres any free or pretty cheap spreadsheet programs of any quality? I found one or two on download.com, but it was supposed to be a ...
... yep. More than a little bit, actually. ... You could try gnumeric (Linux spreadsheet); last time I looked, though, it was pretty rudimentary. There's...
Just FYI -- If you encounter a pure perl program or a pure javascript program which you wanted to use, you could easily create local mirrors of the program on...

I have noticed that the lists I am posting to, the posts have come to an almost halt or are there already. Some are more alive, but included some as well. All...

Hi, I am new to this list so I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this or not. I am looking for software that will help me write a campaign for ...
