Amber DRPG HTML Sheet Generator
What It Does:
- Basically creates HTML versions of the various sheets - not identical to what's in the books, but similar - through a series of questions and prompts. Includes character sheets, artifact and creature sheets, Shadow sheets, construct sheets, and demon sheets.
- Checks your math at the end of creation and tells you if you added things correctly or not - this happens for all sheets. The procedure will return the correct value for construct or artifact and creature (or whatever) sheet to the parent sheet if the addition is incorrect. It also alters a character's Good/Bad Stuff appropriately at the end of creation.
- Enter the parent of the character
- Add contributions separately from basic character points
- Can now skip the stuff I added in with the Shadow sheets that is more irritating than helpful; ditto on constructs
What It Doesn't Do:
- Enter the descriptions of characters, artifacts, creatures, constructs, Shadows, or demons
- Enter the colors of the character
- Enter the descriptions of typical denizens, access points, or guards of a Shadow
- Enter the rank of ranked stats
- Create randomly generated characters, creatures, artifacts, constructs, Shadows, or demons
Some Examples
Things I Plan To Add - Later
- Ability to list player contributions. For the moment, just write them down somewhere else...
- Ability to create defaults. I think there's maybe one default option in the entire program...
- Ability to generate random characters (and maybe other sheets, if I get ambitious)
- Ability to enter in the non-essential info (descrips, etc)
- GUI! Because it'd be so much easier to just click on things than to answer endless questions... (Just don't ask how I plan to do that... I'm working on it... Really...)
System Requirements
Pretty minimal. I know it works on Windows 98 and ME; anything afterwards should be fine. No idea if it works on 95, but it should; ditto for NT. I recommend exiting out after each sheet creation if you notice major lag between prompts; creating more than one sheet in a row has a bit of an effect on performance (I know, probably bad program design, but YOU try it!).
The program comes as a pretty standard installation file.
Still interested?
