CT has an embedded database which saves files on the user's system. These are the biggest problem. You could put them in memory, but I doubt that all of 4e's powers would fit and you could probably forget about running more than one instance in lots of cases. If it is possible to host a H2 database...

Forgot to mention that I would gladly host any CT applet for development and production.

My thinking is that CT would not write anything to the user's system, all information would be stored on the server. Options to export in various formats (XML, HTML...) would be the way the user takes the data elsewhere. I fully realize this would be a ways off. Just wanted to put the thought out th...

No idea. I'm hoping that for CT it wouldn't take nearly as much as it would for MT, not having all the graphics libraries and such. But I don't know enough about Java to tell.

Web-based CT

I think Character Tool could be extremely powerful as a web-based applet which could be hosted on a server, where character sheet data could be stored in a central location. With password protected sheets, GMs could grant access to specific players when needed.

Oops, many apologies SR. I misread the 'there' in your earlier post as 'here'. darn - should have had coffee before reading the forums this morning. I'll move this over there. Thanks for the help. Lol, no problem. I corrected the problem and uploaded a test map. I'll be gone for the weekend, so oth...

OK, please, folks, report problems with RPGMapshare on RPGMapshare, ok? Even if you can't login you can post to the forums.

Torstan please let me know over there what the error message is.

RPGMapShare.com is now up and running. No errors seen. I was able to go in and add some images to my cart and download them.

Please report any further errors over there.

Thanks!

It has to be something pornografic, using their descriptions, I can think of a few... Disturbing options.... Dunno, in the US of A even a little nipple showing is considered pronographic, so it might be rather harmless. You'll always have people who will be offended, and instead of just not looking...

When I left-click on the portrait area, nothing happens. No dialog, it just changes color slightly. Torstan had a problem with this being a tiny little 'Squiffy' window that had to be resized. Could that be your problem? Otherwise, could you check for exceptions on the console? I get an initial exc...

That can be added. Is it needed for game play or just character creation? If you have to select all of your class skills manually and nothing is done with them other than display will anybody use it? It's needed for character creation as well as each time you level up. A cross-class skill costs 2 p...

As for sheet functionality. I think the skills matrix needs a couple more columns:

- Whether the skill can be used untrained
- Whether it's a class skill or not. A checkbox would be good for this, just need to determine which will require the least checking, Class or Cross-class.

You mentioned about misc modifiers that are to be modified by feats and such. i'm guessing this is future stuff, since there's nowhere but the notes field to enter feats on the d20 3.5 sheet.
