Morph Creation Spreadsheet/Generator?
Has anybody put one together, using the rules from Transhuman?

I've been thinking about
I've been thinking about whether or not I should mention this. I don't like making commitments or raising hopes if I might not follow through with something. I do have something, but its only half finished (its been that way for a while). Its not pretty, and it is built to have multiple morph creation rules to work alongside each other. I wanted to be able to compare results of the different morph creation rules along side each other (like the EP fanzine version compared to Transhuman playtest 1 & 2) while leaving the possibility of adding additional ones. Its not built for user convenience. You have to be very aware of the flaws in the rules, as my spread sheet will not protect you. In fact, it doesn't even have a column for the released Transhuman rules yet... (I lost interest in finishing this spread sheet a while back). On the other hand, if you like trying to tweak morph creation rules, it might be something for you.

Ok, maybe I spoke too soon.
Ok, maybe I spoke too soon. When I got some time, it took me about an hour to write up a new spread sheet up that is more or less up to speck. It should generate the correct numbers. I haven't tested it much yet. I did ignore some rules that didn't work well (like step 12, I really don't like how it was done). It is also not built to track some details, like where you put aptitude bonuses and which augments you buy. It only needs numbers that are relevant (for example, the rules technically only needs to know if you have 20 points in aptitude bonuses, not that you have +10 COG, +5 INT, +5 ANY). The problem I have now, is how do I make it available. I don't usually play with file sharing.

Google Drive
If it's a raw spreadsheet like an .xls or something, Google Drive is a pretty good bet.

I've built one. It works to 95% confidence. Unfortunately it is embedded in a work project that I need to finish before I can extract it for public use.

@ kindalas
@ kindalas Your sheet will probably be much better done than mine. If it is anything like your character sheet one, it should have drop down menus and other neat stuff. I'll check it out when you release it. I'll check it out to make sure everything works right.

Mine is currently a 100% brute force hack. It needs smoothing. But I'll probably include it as a part of the custom morph builder to recommend a CP cost.

Ok, I thought it would be as well designed as that character sheet generator you made (the one in your sig). Sounds like you haven't got that far yet. Maybe there is time for me to make mine pretty then. I've started to figure out some of the fancy functions that you did with your sheet, like a drop down list.
