Unda Harvum 06-17-03, 04:48 PM	Presented here are some of the links I've often seen requests for. I hope they can be of use. You can add other links to the thread - just remember to keep it D&D related, of general interest - and of course CoC compliant. Note: This is a repost from the old boards. Some links may point to the old boards for a while, until the threads are moved here (and I discover they have been moved). Other threads will only exist in their arhvived state, I suppose.

frisbeet 06-18-03, 05:25 PM	I wonder if there was a way to make this a static thread, one not requiring a bump every so often. Two con points: 1). Every link deserves a little peer review, and the thread format facilitates this 2). It's perhaps easier to append new links in the thread format Two pro points: 1). I'm interested in these links just enough to find this thread, but not enough to bookmark them--or I'm very interested in the links but don't want to litter my business casual bookmark list with them. And I hate searching for burried threads. 2). Maybe I'm not alone in this.
Cog 06-19-03, 01:24 AM	*bookmarks this thread* Excellent work! :)

frisbeet 06-19-03, 09:51 AM	Thus is demonstrated my ignorance. I couldn't be less proud.
Nadaka 07-01-03, 02:58 PM	Cool, you even have a link on sarge.

DAoC man 07-15-03, 11:54 PM	Another suggested addition: the auto-calc pdf char sheet that's rapidly becoming the best out there. The current version is >here (http://wwwhome.cs.utwente.nl/~hakfoort/boards/D&D_3_5_Automated_Character_Sheet-v4_7_0_Q.pdf)<, or >here (http://wwwhome.cs.utwente.nl/~hakfoort/boards/D&D_3_5_Automated_Character_Sheet-v4_7_0.pdf)< for the smaller, less-crisp one. It's being updated so fast, though: >here's the thread it's happening in (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=59514)<.
Cog 07-16-03, 12:57 AM	Nice char sheet, DAoC man! www.scourgeofworlds.com - D&D DVD game www.alderac.com - d20 publisher www.badaxegames.com - d20 publisher www.bastionpress.com - d20 publisher
DAoC man 07-16-03, 01:05 AM	Yes, it is. Too bad I have only the very tiniest hand in making it (a handful of suggestions). :)
Unda Harvum 07-16-03, 07:53 PM	Thanks guys. I hope you'll forgive me, but I'm a bit slow updating the main links post currently. There's still some changes happening from the move from the old boards to the new, and some threads replacing old threads because of the update to 3.5. As I don't want to do too much work twice I've kind of been planning to let the thread lay low for a while, till when things seem to have settled a bit. Then I'll try to come up with a structure that will make it easy to find links to both 3.0 and 3.5 stuff, and old threads, as well as current versions. But please keep posting links. They won't be forgotten (and as long as the thread isn't any longer, they'll still be easy to find). :)
DAoC man 07-16-03, 10:10 PM	Bump.
Kevmann 07-17-03, 06:39 PM	Hello Unda... I have a file that I would like you to put on your list... It is an automated, fully computerized 3.5E character sheet based off of the official character sheet realeased from WotC... But the problem is that we are constantly pumping out new versions of the file. I mean, just a couple weeks ago we had version 2.0, and now it is version 4.7.0! The link to the current file is in my signature if your interested!

Unda Harvum 10-19-03, 09:13 PM	Okay... I finally got around to doing an update. Sorry about the delay, guys. And I know I need to link a lot of threads that have appeared here recently; and I need to remove a lot of the old stuff, as the links are no longer good. That will have to wait for now, though. But the thread is still alive, so keep posting :)
ORC_Paradox 10-19-03, 09:31 PM	Let me know when it is updated so I can slap it over to the FAQ board.

Birched 03-27-05, 05:11 PM	My NPC generator has changed url to: www.hailscape.com - Birched P.S. Some day I'll get around to writing a 3.5 (or later version, if WotC beats me), but I'm swamped with life at the moment. The 3.0 version still gets a lot of traffic.
Wizard 03-27-05, 06:03 PM	Uh-oh...unstuck?
Birched 03-27-05, 06:07 PM	Uh-oh...unstuck? are you referring to my state of mind?
AmanitaEata 04-06-05, 01:39 PM	This really should be at the top of the page. And stuffed into the FAQ doesn't count.
FARMER44625 06-02-05, 03:57 PM	going through some of the links are bad, any way they could be updated periododicly? or perhaps a place that a updated list would be located?
