Editable Character Sheet

[Outlandbase]

Morning all,

Okay, so after checking I thought i'd post here my first attempt at creating an editable and save-able version of the Character Sheet.

Have used the standard sheet for now with the background image 'cause I like it more than the printer friendly one (The plain one is just too, well, plain), I may copy this onto the printer friendly version at some point but we'll see how much time I have.

Basically, i've used Adobe9Pro to add form fields to much of the sheet, and hopefully organised the fields into a logical 'Tab friendly' layout.

Not all the sections have fields, this is because some of the fields will be changing game session to game session (Money, flux, etc) and in one case because I forgot it (Ooops, sorry...)

Have a look, let me know what you think, i'm also adding a 4th page for more extensive Character Notes, but that'll follow soon I hope.

Anyway's, enjoy.

Also, you could check Pierstoval's Corahn Rin character creation tool
Some bits remain to be translated but I guess it's usable for the most part.
Give it a go

Thanks, however there is something to be said for sitting around a table with your friends, the books and creating the characters as a group that is part of the gaming appeal for me, you discuss the characters you want and get a feel for how the group will work.

Character creators are great for quick npc's and i've used them (hell, even made one once) for just that purpose.

Also, as i'm a poor monoglot, and this one being in french i'll stick to the book, which looks prettier anyways : )

Thanks

I can only agree on that one.

You can pick the language in the top menu. French and English for now.
Like I said, some parts still remain to be translated, but I think it's quite a small portion of the whole thing.

Thanks SeigneurAo for advertising Corahn-Rin

Actually, the app is being entirely redesigned for it can be more powerful and functional. Translation is improved to accept more languages than English.
Also, the english sheet will be used to generate character sheets, both coloured and printer friendly version.
All you have to do is wait for some weeks, maybe some months, for the app to be more useful, powerful and better-looking

Corahn-Rin has a high ambition of being a web-gaming-platform for Shadows of Esteren, but actually, the prime use is to generate easily a character sheet without having to take dozens of minutes to read the book and calculate things. You are not "forced" to use the character sheet, but nothing blocks you from generating a character and then only copy the information with your pencil on your original paper sheet

For the good-looking, I'm really sorry, but it's totally normal that you would prefer the book instead of the app !! I'm a really bad webdesigner, but a good developer, so I'll try to make Corahn-Rin look more attractive in the next few months, after the app is redesigned

Pierstoval, the app is superb, I found a small bug, if you select English Language you cannot move past selecting Classe Sociale.

I switched to French made the choice and moved on, then switched back to English.


As I said though it's a really good app, thanks.

Good thing you made it, cuz translation is very bad at the moment, and I really don't know where the error could come from

I'm working on a new version of the app, which will include Esteren Maps, the new app the community made possible with both Kickstarter and Ulule !
Without that, I think I would stand still on this version of the app which is kinda unstable in many points, even if not visible (except some points, as you just reported ).

But anyway, I'm really glad the community uses and expands the possibilities of this app, I made it for the best use possible, and it is as I wanted it to be

I'm happy to help test it if you like.

What's it written in?
My coding is VERY rusty but I can follow logic really well.

If I can help then I'd be happy to.

The actual app is in full PHP from scratch.

The new version is an adaptation of the actual app, adapted to Symfony2, in 100% PHP.
I'm using the orm Doctrine2, the default one in Symfony2, and getting some additionnal bundles for user management, using Composer.

But as I just met with Symfony2, I'm gonna need some time to be better at ease with it...

No worry for testing, I notice your proposal, but the beta tests will be online in some months, as I'm also developing Esteren Maps
