Thinking it through last night I might have come up with a way of handling class/cross class skills and the max ranks for a skill. It hinges on the assumption...
... Actually, I don't think it *is* in the SRD, just the PHB. ... Correction on my numbers, the max rank should be 6, not 4. It's 4 for the first level, not...
... I believe that 3.5 did away with exclusive skills, at least in the core set, though I guess there's nothing to stop some other D20 product from using the ...

After the discussions last week about how to do various things I tried to see just how difficult it was to do various bits and pieces. My aim was to see if we...
As everytime I try to refactor out some piece of the spagetti code that is PCGen[1] I realise it is a futile effort I returned my attention to the protype that...
Hi guys, I'm keenly interested in knowing what the next steps are. I was impressed at Steve's "engine" approach, which is close to what I believe in. I...
So, I was looking through the "scores.xml" files in the different ucg* examples, trying to get a better understanding of the currently suggested approaches for...
Hello all. I've been lurking on this group for a few months now and am interested in getting more involved in any way I can. Although I've never worked on...
Frugal, I see they are talking about your existing LST to XML conversion in the PCGen BoD meeting. Does this mean that code monkeys are getting on board for...
I think this is mostly for Frugal and Steven. A bit back you were discussing having an "add" and "remove" effect for each entity. (Darn, hope I'm getting the...
Has there been any kind of agreement as to wether this project is going to be a data layer only project (i.e. we map from the XML to the current pcgen.core...
Preface: I don't want to write them all below, so just to remind you, in my terminology * Score <=> OrderedSetSelection (i.e. an integer value) * Rating <=>...
Looking at Steves code the use of the observer pattern is very interesting and from a design point of view very sweet. I do have a couple of questions that I...
So I started this weekend looking at the most recent pcgen-xml messages and decided they really weren't going to make any sense without context. 842 messages...
So I don't know whether or not the data on the PCGenDataWiki reflects current plans, but in case it does, I thought I'd make a few comments about it...
I notice in your schema for ratings you have hardcoded the concepts of "good", "evil", "lawful" and "Chaotic". Is this really a good thing if we wish to...
I notice you have this construct in the barbarian class: <add score="movement" value="10" when="not heavily armored or heavily encumbered" /> Is the "when"...
Ok, I uploaded the alternate schema files. Here's what's in there: scores.xml: a file encoding most of the scores and rules for scores in D&D ucg.core.*: the...

Okay, the parse is almost there ;O) It will now parse all of the file types with only a few errors. The total of the XML files in 400,000 lines (14.5Mb) of XML...
As the Data Silverback I can state this 1) I may ask but I do not demand. I have not assigned or ordered any volunteers to do any lst work they don't want to...
A few people have asked about the Board of Directors (BoD) and their role in PCGen, so I thought I'd try to come up with a short and sweet explanation. The BoD...
Hi All, Just so you know that I haven't dropped off the edge of the earth, I'm at the end of about three years contracting in a government office (and about...
Hello, ALL: I've been wanting to get involved but I'm trying to get a handle on where you guys are in the process. Admittedly, I've done the dummy thing of...
