GCS: Dungeon Fantasy RPG Libraries have been submitted

It's done now. The pull requests are made. If anyone wants to spot check the data files, the spell list has been merged, as has one version of the DFRPG racial templates, you can pull the GCS libs from there.

The rest of the content is pending in two pull requests:
https://github.com/richardwilkes/gcs_library/pulls

The occupational template branch also includes the skills and advantages, as well as some fixes to the racial templates that have been merged into the trunk.
The Inventory branch pull request contains the equipment catalog from Dungeon Fantasy Adventurers.

I hope this makes it easier for players and GMs to make characters quickly.

GCS: How to Setup GIT

It's a thing that I know how to do since I program for my day job, but, it can be tricky if you are not used to it. Once you get it set up once though, it works fine from there.

GCalc: Little known Feature - Auto CER Calculator

It's been out for a while, but some people are still surprised. I added automatic CER calculations that are pretty close to correct. Just upload a character sheet from either GCS or GCA to GCalc, and it will give you the CER automatically, helpful, right?

Release: GURPS Character Sheet 4.6.0 is out!

This version brings a bunch to the table, Zooming character sheets, the ability to calculate Basic Lift, and swing and thrust damage according to Know Your Own Strength in the Alt GURPS IV issue of Pyramid, and turning advantages/disadvantages on/off at will to see how they impact stats. Get it!

GURPS Character Sheet: Version 4.5.1 is Out!

The new version includes modified hit locations for exotic physiologies (no legs, sessile, etc) and a new feature for equipment to reduce weight. The second one is exciting to me because I hope this is a precursor to having an easy to use mechanic for Fine/Very Fine/Balanced etc. weapons with just a few clicks instead of manually doing it all by hand. It's also got a handful of bug fixes as well, so huzzah.

Update: All is good!

Review: GURPS Calculator and GCS Integration

It was really hard for me
to find some branding
I could use.

I like GURPS Character Sheet, it is just swell, and I've been using it for a long while. GURPS Calculator to me, in the past, felt like a bunch of distinct, but tangentially connected elements, but it has been improving a lot recently, and has recently incorporated GCS format character sheet importing. Nice! Today, I'm gonna dissect its features, what I like about it, what I don't and what I'd like to see.

Cross-Post: GURPS Character Sheet Update, GURPS Calculator Update

Like this.

So, GURPS Calculator and GURPS Character Sheet have both received symbiotic updates. Now, apparently you can import GCS into the calculator to do more in-game operations even quicker. Maybe I should take a look at this and if it works nicely, maybe I'll need to revise my real life game no cell phone policy. The one thing I'd like is the ability to have network capability so a GM can update player point totals, and confirm/veto out of cycle shopping and character point expenditures. This sounds like it might be a step towards enabling that.

GURPS Character Sheet: Version 4.3

Release Notes. Although, not as life-changing as version 4.2, this version added the ability to cross-reference directly to PDFs that you own. Want more details on intimidation right now? Just click the page reference, and you have it. No digging around. A very cool feature anyways.

GURPS Character sheet gets important update

GURPS Character Sheet got an important update recently that according to the release notes will hopefully fix the annoying skill default bug. Their website is http://gurpscharactersheet.com/index.php
It's a pretty good, unofficial program that helps with managing character sheets for GURPS, that is pretty competitive with the official character sheet application.
