I could have sworn at one time I read that the Twin Rose software people had gotten a license for a T20 character generator, but it might have been a hallucination on my part.
Also at one time, I was working to add T20 support to my d20 character generator, but I gave up, because of lack of interest...

They (Twin Rose) were given an early copy of T20 last year at GenCon under the impression they were going to use it to add T20 support. Haven't heard or seen anything from them since.

You have to put the fire to them sometimes!

Yeah, and they also think you guys at QL aren't doing anything. I tried to set them straight though.

Have em contact me and I'll authorize it.

Hi all,
I think those guys at CMP are real busy right now getting patch 1.3 for e-tools and the WotC datasets out. After they get that stuff out we can hope the get something going for Traveller.

Personally, I think the problem is less the data set and more that (a) the process for character generation in T20 really *is* a different sort of beast than in any other d20 type game what with the Prior Career thing and (b) the "codemonkeys" over there don't really gronk Traveller, anyway.

Hello Kevin Livingston,
Sorry for the delay, but I could not remember who or where I had save the spreadsheet for character generation when you made your post. Now I have the information and can pass it a long to you.
Yes, Michael E. Landon has created an Excel spreadsheet for character generation and can be found by using "Character Spreadsheet V3.0" as a search topic on this discussion board or by
clicking on this link:
T20 Character Generation Spreadsheet
The only negative is that angelfire has a lot of popups.

That spreadsheet gives me an error, I've never been able to make it work.

Hello Nightshade,
Have you contacted Michael about the problem. I had a problem with the spreadsheet and after contacting Michael, I was able to get the sheet to work. On the web page is a link to his email, which is how I would go about seeing if you can get the spreadsheet up and running. Try including the exact error message that you receive in the email.

What error does it give you?
I haven't worked on an official release for a while (although I just updated my personal copy to add the Jedi class from Star Wars as my Traveller character has found out he's also a Jedi...but that's not an official update).
If you rename the file (such as when you download it) it gives you an error because of the way Excel handles the macros. You should use the "save as" to save under a different filename (then Excel is happy).
Sorry about the numerous pop-ups on Angelfire. I haven't had the time to make the move to the server at work yet.

Hello Michael,
Thanks for the spreadsheet and the prompt response to this thread. The pop-ups are just a small irritant that I can live with on most days.

The spreadshhet is nice but I wonder if anyone has anything similar to the one that was included in the "MegaTraveller 2" computer game.

Any new word about PCGen? I have used it a lot for D&D, and if (and that is a big if) it could be made to work with T20, chargen would be so much easier.
Well the Code Monkey folks just finished adding the 3.5 stuff to eTools and are adding it to PCGen currently. i.e. they are likely busybusy right now.
