Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
When you first start your campaign, you should see the FG logo in the chat box and the words "CoreRPG ruleset v3.2.2 for Fantasy Grounds" next to it. Is your version of CoreRPG current?

GURPS 4E core ruleset v3.0.5 CoreRPG ruleset v 3.2.2 The GURPS ruleset is a core ruleset so it requires the current version of CoreRPG to be available. Your last copy`n`paste shows you have CoreRPG v3.1.7.

you're right, it does show that in the chat log. 3.1.7 is the version that is showing in chat But when the program starts up, (wish I could show you a screen print of the start up before I load a campaign), it sais V.3.2.3 Ultimate I wonder why/how that happens? |

This was one clue I needed to resolve the issue. I had thought that the updating process included expanding out the .pak files associated with everything. Turns out, that was not happening even though I was getting the proper CoreRPG.pak file on my machine. Now that I've updated everything? It looks and works BEAUTIFULLY. Thank you all for your help and your patience. WHEW!!! |

When I loaded up FG2 with your version of GURPS, BOY did it change the appearance of the whole thing. More "Shield" icons with more stuff showing than either two of the versions in 3.1.7 showed. Sweet! Thanks again for the skull sweat you put into this. |

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
ok, so, Ronnke, I have a confession to make. I kind of found and stole your work from githhub sometime in the first half of last year, and bastardized a semi-working copy of the character sheet, well enough that I switched all my games over to it by hand. It was hands down a massive improvement over the old character sheet.
Mind you, that's not an apology, just an admission of guilt. I'd do it again if I had to, though now that this is out officially and with more function, I'm super excited to be using it. I'm glad to have it working so smoothly, with so many features that make stacking modifiers easy to add to a roll. My wizard players are loving the spell note tags, they can copy-paste spell descriptions in every time they cast a spell for the first time and never need look it up more than once. The fighters are loving the dropdown menus for modifiers on the weapons, both for damage and modifiers. I love it because I can easily add notes directly to the characters sheets about various things that only matter to that character. NPC character sheets are brilliant. only problem I have now is that I was using the old version for so long that I never put the NPC's in fantasy grounds any more. I just made up numbers for each fight as I went, and had at most a few lines written down afterwards for each NPC that might be a recurring character. now that I've said all that, I almost feel a little ungrateful for saying this next bit (Almost, anyway): I don't suppose there is any chance of you implementing the range modifier on the pointer like it was on the old one? It was handy not having to actually look sideways at my awkwardly placed GM screen every other round to double check myself. If not, no matter, but it is the ONE thing that I miss from the old product. |

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
What you can do, is organize "Notes" such that some are public notes that anyone can view from their screens, and private notes that only the GM can view. You can set up tables on the Notes Section such that you can have your own GM notes for range/speed modifiers, etc.
You can also create random tables for 3d6 (or any other dice combination for that matter) that allows you to have references for fright checks, or Social Engineering etc. In short - FG2 allows for some wicked levels of organization if the GM is so inclined. I've been organizing Night City for use with a GURPS CYBERPUNK campaign with just those ideas in mind. Hell, if you wanted to, you could create a "Store" that has individual items listed, along with weights and coin costs etc - and use those "items" as party treasure. The player then buys the item, and adds it to their character sheet via the party treasure split. Email me privately if you want more ideas on what you can do to organize things. In addition, if you go into CAMPAIGNS folder for your ongoing campaign, you can view not only the log of the game run itself, but you can also view what your XML files look like as you add more things to your notes, story, etc. The NPC section is a GODSEND for organizing NPC's...
