I really want to play G.U.R.P.S. via FG. I'm aware that some other programs support hex grids and FG does not. That being Said I've tried many other products and like FG the best.

If anyone has a game going, is gathering players for a game, or are hacking up a ruleset and need some one to do text entry let me know.

I see you've just joined us in the GURPS group over at Four Ugly Monsters (https://www.fouruglymonsters.com/index.php?option=com_groupjive&task=showgroup&groupid=8), Wavecutter, where I'm hoping to gather as many other players interested in playing GURPS using VTs as possible. The more we get the easier it will be for us all to find games. I'm maintaining a list of the members' timezones in the Introductions (https://www.fouruglymonsters.com/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=42&func=view&catid=28&id=250#250) thread there.

I've also just released a stable beta of a GURPS 4e ruleset for Fantasy Grounds II. This has character sheets and a combat tracker, but no automation of the rules and no rules texts, in accordance with the SJG online policy. Hopefully we can get this available for download from FUM soon, but the file's a bit big (9Mb) for the board upload to handle at present. In the meantime, you can download this from www.grahambrand.co.uk (https://www.grahambrand.co.uk). Feedback would be very much appreciated.

There are some screenshots available in this thread in the GURPS group (https://www.fouruglymonsters.com/index.php?option=com_fireboard&func=view&id=2592&catid=28&limitstart=0).

I've also written an export filter for GURPS Character Assistant that produces xml that can be pasted into the Fantasy Grounds files so that you can import your characters, and you can download that from FUM or my home page above. I'm working on a utility that will do the pasting for you, and also allow the character to be loaded into a FG campaign as a NPC.

If it is a free ruleset you are more than welcome to also distribute it on RpgZone (https://rpgzone.trinityintrigue.com). I am sure there are a few other sites around here that wouldn't mind hosting it for you as well.

Thanks unerwünscht, I'll take a look. Yes, it's free.

I want to work on the ruleset a bit more, incorporating feedback from a wider audience and tweaking a few things, before I release it as v1.0. Before then it's easier to keep the number of places that I have to update down to a minimum, but when I get a final version I'll spread it around more.

Thanks Spyke. I'll make sure to post my details in the intro thread.
