Character Designer Software

Just wondering if anyone has plans to, or is already, working on character design software? Or maybe a dataset for herolab?

According to a post on

According to a post on RPG.net, Catalyst themselves have a spreadsheet-based character generator almost ready to go. It requires some updating apparently.

I was thinking of doing the same in Excel. If anyone has done such it would be great to share.

Isn't the Catalyst spread-sheet going to be Excel, if I remember correctly?

that would be nice...

Keeping track of the math for character building is a bit annoying. A spreadsheet would be most welcome...

It's not the official one but just checking it for errors now should have an Excel based character sheet up on the Darkcast website in a few days.. ((Possible just after Labor day but working for before then)). a link to the site is http://www.firewall-darkcast.com/ and the forums has our updates and current copy.

Link to currentish version

Though it's stalled a bit there is a fan-made version.

An "offical" sheet would be awesome of course.

Now, was this excel sheet being made by Posthuman or Catalyst? Either way, are there still plans to release it? Lastly, do you guys have a plan for expanded character sheets, akin to the Shadowrun Character Folio (which was epic, by the way)? Eclipse Phase does somewhat require more record keeping than most games, so this would be some good info to have.

Just ignore it. It'll get bored and go away from itself.

Bots don't get bored, don't get tired, and don't stop. That's why their bots.

It would be a much easier process if we could report, however... which we now can!

Yep! You found it fast! :) We have an auto-unpublish threshold of three reports, but I'm already looking at the list of reported comments to start clearing these out.
