| I don't believe they're doing one. The 3.0 Character Generator was a demo for E-Tools, and both were horrible and bug-ridden. Wizards' software department is already tied up rebuilding Magic Online from the ground up to do anything else. |

| All right is there any 3.5 character generator software out there not made by WOTC. |
Some believe there is something more after death, if you really want to find out... go kill yourself and stop pestering me. |

| I think E-tools was a complete waste of money. When it was originally released, the program was next to useless and took WOTC months upon months before they finally decided to set things straight...as for the 3.5 update, I will have to look into this. |

For anyone interested I upgraded my chargen to Revision v3.5 and released it for testing. :)
Redblade 3.5e is a free character generator, updated to D&D 3rd edition revised (v3.5). Allows you to add your own classes, races, skills, feats, spells, domains, languages, and items. Characters can be exported to a textfile character record sheet.
I like to hear what you think. Help me find the bugs!

Well, I saw two things right off. First, in the abilities section, the program automatically put the stat increases from every four levels into Strength. Second, the program doesn't distinguish between different bonus feat lists; wizards are given choices from the fighter list, and vice versa.
That's all I saw right off, but it was only a quick look. Sage'll be able to tell you more, and even how to fix it, I'm sure. He speaks the lingo, anyway.  |

Indeed, I've only just started looking over it now.
Besides the few errors that the Bookwyrm mentioned, I have noticed a few other bugs inherent in the actual setup...(I ran through the source-code... )
I'll send them to you via ethereal mail. If you have problems implementing these necessary changes, let me know, and I'll try and help.
Other than these few errors it's a pretty good effort though, and since there aren't any other packages available (yet)...it's the best we have.

What did you use to create it?.
The 3.5e version is coded in Delphi 7.0 SP 1. :)

Thanks for the bug reports. :) When you've assigned all your dice scores the stat increase selectors appear, but i'll try to make that a bit more obvious.
I'll fix the 'same bonus feat' list problems. :) |

Great. :) I'm awaiting your mail. :) I dont care much about 'correct programming' in hobby projects though, as long as it functions. :P
I'll put the 3.5e source available when most bugs are fixed.

Redblade 3.5e 1.3.0.7 is released! :)
http://www.dark-legacy.com/redblade3e/3.5e/
Changes in 1.3.0.7
Fixed a bug which prevented bonus feats to be printed on a character sheet.
Made short-sword a 'light' weapon. (You will have to replace all your characters short swords to make them light weapons too.
Fixed a bug which caused weapon finesse to be always enabled.
Added an indicator for when weapon finesse is used with weapons. (it shows Finesse (Dex) with the item).
Spells on the charactersheet are properly sorted.
Unmet requirements no longer pop up when selecting a feat with met requirements.
Changed bonus ability point assignment a bit so it isn't hidden anymore.
Seperated class bonus feat list (so you dont get class skills confused).
Fixed 'Weapon focus' and 'Improved Critical' so they select from the current class weapon proficiency list. :)
Forced thrown weapons to be single-handed.
Forced short/longbow to be double-handed.

This is much better daan...You even corrected most of the 'bug-code' occurences I recorded in my email that I sent to you this morning.

Ah yes...one of the best...
Isn't that the one with the built-in 'Multiple Redundancy Suite'?...

I'm not sure i've received any emails from you, could you post the topic here so I can scan my mailbox for it?

There's no multiple redundancy suite in delphi 7. :P I think Borland is slipping in component quality anyway, its just that I coded the original redblade 3e in 5.0 with too little time to rework it from scratch. Since they abandoned Kylix it feels like they plan to abandon Delphi too. |

The email was a fault on my end  . I'm creating a new OS from the ground up, and it now appears that not everything is working correctly. I'll just send the message through my ordinary Hotmail account, so you should get it soon daan....
You'll also be interesting to know that I was inspired by your 'little' project and am now attempting to craft an add-on for the program that handles PrC for your PC. It will basically start with the classes presented in the DMG 3.5 to begin with.

That's disappointing to hear...we use Delphi at work. I don't want to have to go back to Visual C...

Hi,
For Character generation, have any of you tried (ENWorld Award Winning) PCGEN. It's free and comes loaded with the SRD (both 3.0 and 3.5). When using this program, you also have the option to purchase closed content datasets (from WOTC, etc) thru the same Codemonkey publishing company. I'll include the link below.
