I made an extension just for the heck of it to try and change the charactersheet... not much, but enough so I'd get more timetypical paper for a more advanced techlevel.

First image is the "classic view" for my ruleset.

Second one is the somewhat rewamped one... This extension isn't dont yet but I will keep plugging away at it.

So will these extensions make it easier for those of us without talent to make character sheets...?

*has a dozen game systems he'd like to make character sheets for, no need for complete rulesets*

Eh.... Probably not?

It won't make it easier to make character-sheets. But it will make it easier for you to make several different ones to be used by the same ruleset.

The extentions by themselves, not really. However, down the road if the generic buildling block base ruleset idea Goblin King proposed takes hold then there may come a time where you can add different types of functionally to the basic "generic" ruleset by extentions. How powerful/useful extentions are to any specific ruleset has a lot to do with how that ruleset was originally put togeather.

Love it! I was thinking of tackling an Old West skin, too.

Would work for Old West stuff, Civil War stuff, Deadlands...

Awesome! Wow. Looks beautiful. So... is this a working Ars Magica ruleset? Would love to get my hands on one if it's available for public consumption. I do have the version 4 PDF rulebook.

The screenshots are... for now Shot. I got hacked a bit back and lost about a days worth of Data. Now I am... of work for a day and still in hyperactive coffee mode. ;)

So I started fiddling with a "Skin creation set" in VB... Possibly this might be a tad easier than a "Character sheet creation kit" at the least.
