Character Planner - Series 4.xx

[Fedora1]

I am sorry I keep forgetting to post this while I am home and can give you details. As it is I want to at least give you a head's up.

I am leveling (in-game) a Drow Pally/Monk that is currently level 9 (Pal7/Monk2). In the game, at L8 (Pal6/Monk2) I was able to select a feat called something like "Unyielding Sovereignty" or similar. It is the feat that lets you cure all health, level drain, disease, poison, etc in yourself or a friend. It has a long cool down. However, I used your planner and planned all the way to L20 and never saw this feat available.

Likewise, it seems like the feats that are along the lines of "Follower of Sovereign Host" and "Child of of Sovereign Host" differ from those in the game. Hopefully someone can check on these that is in-game, and if I am mistaken I apologize in advance.

Came across something I didn't expect.

If your 21st lvl would (ordinarly) be lvl 13 druid, you are offered druid wildshape feat.

No feats taken.
No ablity points spent, 32 pt build selected.
no skill points spent.
No enhancments selected.
tomes : +1 at lvl 3 all.
+2 at lvl 7 all.
+3 at lvl 11 all.
+4 at lvl 15 dex, con, cha.

barb lvl 1 and 3
fighter lvls 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15
druid every other lvl not listed.

Both of these issues have already been fixed in our dev build. I'll double check on the druid thing, but I believe I have disabled all specialty feats beyond level 21.

Thank you very much for the character and enhancement planner!

Could you *please* when you have time allow more enhancement panels to be seen at once?
Maybe let the user select 1x3, 2x6! etc. if they have the screen for it.

I understand the initial layout wanted to match the in-game layout - on my 1920x1200 display, I actually get more panels visible in-game right now. Looks like two rows would fit offline, if you would let the user stretch the pop-up window... even if restricted to 1 row, if the window could stretch across both displays, many more panels could show at one glance!

Thanks again for a great tool!

Ah, good to hear. Sorry that it was already a known and fixed, but I admit that I didn't want to wade through the thread to see if such already was reported.

No worries, man. I always want y'all to report bugs if you are not sure they've been reported yet. I'd much MUCH rather a bug is over reported than not reported at all.

[Stoner81]

It's fine with me. It's really up to Dragon though. It's his baby. If he thinks it's ready for a preview shot, I'll be happy to put one up.

Tell him I will buy him a pint if he gives us a sneak peak (yes shameless bribery I don't care... especially if it works :P).

Ron and team, thank you very much for producing this excellent planner, the wife and I have found it extremely useful in the past and with our latest TR plans.

I don't know if this is in the "known list" but I'm having trouble printing. This has occured on two different systems with the latest build. On both occasions the toons (both different builds) were worked to 28 and all the enhancements set. Asking for a full print, or level plan crashed the planner. I'd saved first so no work was lost. Reloaded, reset the enhancements, and it printed fine.

If I can provide any more information then let me know.

Thanks again.

Rog.

Did you try a forum export on it? My guess is you will get the same result (crash).

There is a decent chance this has already been fixed in our dev build. We had a handful of enhancements that still had typos in the text file that would cause crashes under certain circumstances (like printing or forum export). We've ironed out all the ones we know about to this point.

Just to make sure this isn't one we already know about, what trees did you chose from?

I'm hoping we can get you guys a new version pretty soon. We have some important fixes in there (e.g. religious feats, crash fixes from the enhancements, spell listings, et. al.). But as we are adding a new system (destinies), it's release date is limited to when that system is ready.

This is a feature that I plan on working in, but to be honest with you it is behind a few other features to get in first (Destinies & TR System).

Sorry for the delay in the reply. RL cropped up.

Yep it also crashed on forum export. The builds we MC bard builds; so.. Human racial, WC, SS, AA(ranger), DWS, Tempest, assassin. T1-2 in the last 4, T5 WC, T4 SS.

Please let me know if I can help further.

Hmmmmm. That doesn't immediately ring any bells. Can you send me the save file, so i can check it out? You can send it to rhiler@rjcyberware.com

I'll take a look at it and see if we have another bad enhancement in there, or if it is one we already fixed.

[Ron]

Okay, screenshot, as requested. Just keep in mind guys, this is still in rough shape. But it will give you an idea of where things are at.

[Failedlegend]

Looks cool Ron, what do those "Force X" checkboxes do exactly ('m sure its really obvious and I'm just stunned :P)

[Dragon.Star]

Looks cool Ron, what do those "Force X" checkboxes do exactly ('m sure its really obvious and I'm just stunned :P)

The Enforcement Checkboxes are to allow you to bypass the Destiny Restrictions that you would encounter as a new player that has never hit destinies before.

The Character/Level Progression: Limits you to how many destiny levels you have at each character level.
The Destiny Progression one: Determines what Destinies are available to you based on your class levels and destiny levels that you selected.

Both of these can be unchecked to allow full access.

[Ron]

Hey gang,

Dragon and I have talked it over, and we agree.

Our original plan was to have Destinies working in the next release. However, that system is probably still a couple of weeks from being done. And we feel that there are important bug fixes sitting in the development build that you guys need to have.

So rather than sit on the build, we're going to do a new release on Saturday. We're just going to disable the destinies button (and also the enhancements Auto-Distribute, which is the system I was working on). That way you guys can work on your characters without having to work around the bugs we've already fixed.

Awesome. Thanks Ron and gang!

[Stoner81]

Awesome news Ron! A massive thank you to yourself and the whole team/army of people who have helped with this project. If I could afford it I would buy everybody a pint

Known Issues

• Builds saved under a prior version of the planner (04.19.01) with Pale Master enhancements must modify the save text file before it can be loaded. All instances of "Palemaster" should be changed to "Pale Master", and the file saved. It will then load properly under 04.19.02 or higher
• The Equipment side of the planner has been disabled as it was having way too many issues and we need overhaul system, sorry for the inconvenience.
• Warpriest Tree - Core Abilities that grants spells aren't adding the spells to the spell book.
