Core Books

Dungeon Fantasy RPG.gdf

[Languages]
I don’t know if it was an oversight, or somehow the file got reverted at some point and I didn’t notice, but all Languages were still listed as Advantages, even though I’d changed all references to use LA:. So, I moved all languages to Languages, where they belong. Also updated the new language wizards.

Core Supplemental

GCA Prime Sheet

Removed a bunch of obsolete stuff mistakenly left active

Adjusted grid layout a tiny bit to have any assigned row height become the minimum height for that row

Made it so I could turn off the normal lines of a grid by setting the line definitions to Nothing

I noticed that a cell with text padding on was drawing the cell border around the text area, instead of around the cell, so that should be fixed now

Created a new block: Attributes – OCS Style; this is the official character sheet ‘blocky grid’ style, with options to change that style a fair bit

Created a new block: Basics – OCS Style; this is the Basic Lift, Basic Speed, Basic Move, and Damage bit from the official sheet, with options to change it up a bit.

Added EdgeBorders to Grid so that I can print only part of a grid border if I want, although I’m not doing anything with it for now.

Updated the Movement grid to offer GCA-style shading, which is to shade the non-move rows instead of alternate rows

Updated the ‘Block Happy’ preset profile to make use of the two new OCS style blocks.

DO NOT install the sheet updates if you are NOT running 5.0.183!

Go to Warehouse 23, go to your Downloads page, download GURPS_Character_Asssitant.zip, and run the setup program it contains! That will update your GCA to the newest version and will not affect your personal data. THEN you can install the sheet updates.

If you don’t have 5.0.183, some of your sheets will not load after this update (they will appear to disappear from inside GCA) because these updates require features that the older GCA releases don’t support.

* Official Character Sheet

!!! WARNING: Some of these changes require GCAA 5.0.183. Do not install this update if you haven’t updated GCA to 5.0.183, or the sheet will stop working! !!!

Updated the attack selection criteria so that hidden traits that have Show Hidden for their list type turned On will be valid.

The optional message about including shield DB scores in active defenses changes based on the character option related to including DB in all active defense scores by default.

The attack tables now show the GCA-calculated block score for shields if you have turned on the option to include block score instead of having ‘No’ in the Pry field of the Lvl(Pry) column.

The Active Defenses grid now shows the shield’s block score *if* you’re showing shields from the active loadout.

The Protection grid now shows the Block score for shields in addition to their DB/DR values.

Added options and support for including page numbers in the trait names on the trait lists.

* Color Block Sheet

Updated the attack selection criteria so that hidden traits that have Show Hidden for their list type turned On will be valid.

* Package Updater

If the package for the Package Updater has been updated, then the Updater should now update itself first, before any other packages. Once it’s updated, it will then re-run itself using the newer version.

Package Updater should now support packages that have a required version (or later) of GCA. If the version of GCA that you’re running is not the specified version or higher, then the package won’t be updated. You must update GCA to the specified version (or later) in order to update such packages.

Some minor updates to BBCodeEngine.

This should no longer chop off trait section headers when they have no traits in them.

The card will now use FullNameTLExpanded for the attack names. This shows the modifiers applied (using short names, without costs) in parentheses after the name.

Added some options to allow some customizing of the footer text.

Dungeon Fantasy RPG.gdf

[EQUIPMENT]
<Armor – DFRPG Adventurers>
Normal ‘head’ armor covers only the skull (not the face) unless full face coverage is included, so these items all had ‘head’ changed to ‘skull’ in location().
