Like what I see so far but as a new comer to D&D I wonder how many playing are using 4th edition? I know it's a hot topic between 3.5 and 4, but as I've learned everything from 4th and like it, I have to ask if it's being used much at Fantasy Grounds.

There is a 4e rules set on fouruglymonsters.com

You have to join the 4e developement group and then you can access it

I'm not sure if the OP was looking for the ruleset, it sounded more like s/he was asking about how many FG2 users total play 4e. Regardless, I'm sure the ruleset info will come in handy too...

What I can say is that in my experience as a 4e DM since 4e was released, FG2 has *never* lacked for both DMs or players. I find a number of people looking for games every time I inquire, and I find a number of DMs looking for players when I hit the New Posts button every couple days.

Our group is using 4th Ed and overall it has been a great experience. As DM, running the game is a "million" times easier adn much faster.

Good times

Thanks, that's what I was looking for. I like 4e but wanted to make that someone was actually using it.

Look in the Guild House. I'd go back a week or so and seem how many posts are for 4E games. I think you see a fair amount of them.

Also, I have built rulesets for both v3.5 and v4.0 of D&D. I published them on the foruuglymonster.com web site shortly after v4.0 D&D launched. Based on the number of people who have registered for access to each ruleset, I am seeing a 10-to-1 ratio between people accessing v4.0 vs. people accessing v3.5.

Just another data point.

Interesting thought, but flawed, I think, since people can technically just play 3e out of the box, right? The only way to play 4e is to download your ruleset.

I think the current 3.5e support (using the Foundation) isn't fully functional. That means using JPG_d20 or downloading the old d20 ruleset from SmiteWorks, so moon_wizard may not be so far out in the ratio.
