Character Creation Tool?

Does anyone know how to get the rolled stats in the character generation d20 menu? I grabbed the d6 and tossed it in the box but it only fills up the first box of each row before moving onward. I can't seem to get it to roll them all at once for the life of me.

Also, does anyone know how to set up the point buy?

If you want to use the standard d20 4d6 drop 1 for each stat, first change the 3 dice to 4 and drop 0 to drop 1. Next pick up four d6s by clicking and holding down the left mouse button and while the single d6 is on your cursor right click 3 more times to end up with 4d6 on the cursor. Next drop all four dice down in the dice cup under the dice. Now just drag and throw the 4 dice on top of the window with the boxes.

On the point cost the key is setting the define point ranges - the button in the very bottom right. Honestly, I don't think it is worth it for the point buy. It takes too long to setup and use - and you have to do it *every* time. You can point buy much faster on a scratch piece of paper with the DMG open.

Hiya

First Image should show how you set up the rolling section to drop dice, you can see I have it set for 6 rolls of 4 dice dropping the lowest 1. To get the 4 dice to roll right click a d6 to get the radial menu.

Click onto the point buy tab and you will also see a button to set up your point buy (2nd image) which whould take you to the third image. In here right click in the top section to create your ranges

Example in screenie is
->>> 8
9>>>>14
15>>>16
17>>>18

Then assign the costs.

Thank you mi'lord, I assumed that if one of the greater nobility answered they wouldn't deal on the lower level. Flash cards are all the rage in the villages of your duchy I believe.

Hope the combined effort sorts it hehe :D

Thank you. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get more than a single dice (most likely because I purchased this on my way out the door this morning and starting fiddling with it as soon as I got in... Maybe instructions do have their uses;) )

No problem, I don't think the local character part is well documented anyway to be honest. It was a new feature for FG2 and is seldom used except with the default d20 ruleset because it doesn't work for other rulesets.

*shrug* The majority of online games use point buy anyway and the implementation in FG is awkward.
