Excel Character Generator for DCA/3E

[LordDarkkon]

I really like the sheet there is pretty much nothing i would change to it. The only thing I think that should be added in is the ability to link powers because the only way I can do it is add it in the descriptor section.

Keep up the good work hope to see some more updates soon.

You could just put that in a seperate power setting and call it "Linked Power"

Then all the powers in the group are considered linked.

That makes more sense when I think it than I type it, so hopefully the idea is clear...

This has been a lot of help, thanks for making it. I do have one concern though. It seems like multiple arrays of equipment aren't properly skipping lines/inserting line breaks between each array. The individual elements in the array are formatted fine and this doesn't happen with powers, just equipment.

Hello !

what about doing a generator for libreoffice/openoffice ? it is free software. Excel is closed source, very expensive plus your generator will still be readable in 5,10 or 15 years by a future libreoffice/openoffice version whereas it is less sure for excel as microsoft is always changing its proprietary format.

While I do appreciate the feedback and suggestions, I've stopped working on this spreadsheet. Unfortunately, I've moved onto other projects. I've written my own RPG system and I focus on creating and maintaining the spreadsheet (and obviously the rules) for that.

I'll always love Mutants and Masterminds and I really hope the community enjoys this spreadsheet, but my work on it is done.

Would anyone happen to know of some good Excel resources? I was hoping to look into making a few edits/fixes for personal use.

Have I missed a post explaining how to use the Equipment section to register the Headquarters bit?

Have I missed a post explaining how to use the Equipment section to register the Headquarters bit?

I put it as a custom piece of Equipment (like a power) and then either use Feature or Custom as the base power and list the components of the HQ across few of those so that it's legible...


For Excel resources, I Google my specific questions and play until I find what I want.
Great place to start is to Google excel formulas.

The sheet is a little beyond my ability to modify on a large scale. that's and I don't have the full version of Office (I'm too cheap... )

Thanks saw an example where it was just listed as an advantage and not fully detailed shortly after posting will look into your alternative!

Unfortunate for us but hopefully very fortunate for you. I'm curious what is this RPG system you wrote and might we on the forums have heard of it? Anyway wishing you good luck with it and thank you for your work on this generator.

Me too, new systems are always welcome (but not so easily accepted).
