Frequently Asked Questions
Why another digital character sheet? At the time I started, there were a number of PDF and Excel based character sheets, but none were a standalone application, let alone did everything I wanted a digital character sheet to do. Are racial ability bonuses taken into account? Yes. The reason the ability scores are not modified is because I wanted to ensure that ability scores could be modified by the user at will without having to worry about overwriting what the user input. So, instead of adding new textboxes, the racial ability bonuses are added to the base ability scores before the ability modifier is calculated. You'll see the ability modifier (and everything subsequent to it) reflect the increased ability score without the ability score being changed. What is Character Sheet written in? C# for .NET 3.5. C# is a really well designed language, and it is head and shoulders above all else when it comes to rapid windows development. I have nightmares of what it'd be like to have done Character Sheet in native Win32 code. |
