Buh Bam! Note that this is an ALPHA build, and that you will need PCGen 6.07.03 to run it. You can unzip the file to the PCGen root directory, or use the Install option under Sources and point it at the zip file. Click okay on the dialog that says about files outside of the data directory.

Nylanfs,

I installed version 6.07.03 of PC Gen and then installed the starfinder data set (received a data set starfinder install rev 0.41a installed successfully message) - but Im not seeing it show up when I try to load the data set. Where can I find the data set to load before I try to build the character?

Switch to the Advanced Sources tab, then change the gamemode dropdown to Starfinder RPG.

Once you use the Install function you always need to reload PCGen, It reads gamemodes and pcc files at load and then ignores them after that. When you reload sources it on'y reads the individual lst files called out in the pcc files. Not the pcc file itself so when debugging and doing developing work we have to load and reload PCGen frequently. :)

Starting with this version we think it’s in a stable enough status that we are going to be using the JIRA tracker system for it (https://pcgenorg.atlassian.net/projects/DATA/), please report any bugs there.

Also as a side bonus we have a confirmed UI workaround for high resolution displays.

Right click PCGen app, Select Properties, then Compatibility, then turn on Override High DPI scaling. This is for Windows 10, thanks to Brent Warren from FB ("https://www.facebook.com/groups/267698787055301/permalink/276080779550435/?comment_id=276106612881185&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%22%7D).
