No logo icons from the game though.

Skill names usually can't be copyrighted (unless they made up a word), but descriptive text can. And actually, even if the company is out of business, someone still owns the IP.

Hey Ahoggya

Providing you have copied and pasted descriptions to the skills and abilities you are ok to share.
The company being in/out of business doesnt make any difference - copyright outlives the holder.

Please could you zip up the campaign as well as doing an export - that would be fantastic.
Could you PM me the dsr roll changes and we should make a new roll for AFMBE and then they can use the live MoreCore.

Sounds good. I'm just finishing up some of the theme changes. Thanks.

Hi Moon Wizard I think I have this resolved but I have to admit to being thoroughly confused by release and version numbers...

---

The DB.getRulesetVersion and DB.getImportRulesetVersion functions return the ruleset "release" tag information that is specified in the ruleset at the time the data was saved/exported. (For example, CoC7E is currently release="2") So, the checks in the VersionManager2 global script usually are looking for whether the ruleset version used when the data was saved is older than the current ruleset version.

Forgive me if this is answered somewhere else. I am a little daunted by MoreCore, but want to use it. Are there rolls built into the roll library? When I click on the roll tab I get a blank field. Do I need to add the script for each roll type I want to use?

Hi Wbweather
You would add your own Rolls for the system that you are using.
You can either add Rolls directly to the character sheet or you can add them to the Rolls tool and then drag them to character sheets.
If you click on the [?] help icon it should take you here: https://www.diehard-gaming.com/mchelp.html#dicestrings
You can see the syntax for a stack of rollls.
Eg if you were doing Dungeon World you might do:
Strength 16
/pbta 2d6+2

What is it you are wanting to run?

Wanting to set up a Character sheet for The Expanse. Based off of the AGE system. Of course right now they just have the QuickStart PDF.

Age being Stunt Dice?
They would be something like this:

Navigation 2
/stunt 2

This would roll 2+1 dice. If the first two dice were a double the value of the third dice would be added as Stunt Points.
It would then sum up all 3 dice + the modifier as the Total Value.

Cool, Thanks, I'll play around with it.

Wbweather, I am actually in the process of setting up the adventure from the quickstart of The Expanse. I have already set up the pregens from the quickstart and am working on the NPC's and such now. Give me a few minutes and I'll post a picture of the character sheet I came up with
