Anyone else having a problem with the latest JRE install breaking PCGen (6.06.00 or the RC3 build) with Launch4j reporting that the JRE install is non-existent or that the runtime is corrupted?
JRE 8.102 (64 bit) does not appear to fix the problem on my system, I get the same error after patching.
But I’m not in any hurry at the moment, given that I’m moving tomorrow and disassembling my rig for a week.
Thanks for the info, it’s been much appreciated!
That’s odd, I JUST installed 102 at home and just now at work and running the exe works.
Hello, I’ve downloaded the latest version of the sheet 6.06.00 and using 1.8.0_71-b15 (Oracle Corporation). I’m creating a D20 Modern character and am finding the Character Sheet is forming properly. Under Proficiencies it’s listing all weapons ever created and none of the equipment is coming through. This is also occuring on older .pcg files from an older version.
What version is the character from? It appears the char sheet tab is looking for the standard.htm.ftl which has never been updated to work with the Modern system. Either export to “csheet_modern_std.htm” or a pdf using “xlst”
Hi Paul
Tried what you suggested, exporting to csheet_modern_std.htm and the data transferred correctly, however that included all the weapons under the proficiencies.
Been using PCGen for a while and love it. I just added “Enlarge Person”
to my Pathfinder character and I use the “temporary bonuses” selection.
He uses a 1d10 axe normally, but the character sheet does not update to
2d8 on the enlarged version.
So after I got back from the exhibit hall, I tried just unequipping and re-equipping the axe. When I unequipped it, it disappeared altogether from my inventory. I re-added it and equipped it and now it shows fine. It’s like it wasn’t properly seeing the axe as something I own.
Ah i think what happened is that the books i need just arent in yet.
The books i wouldve needed are blood of the night, and inner sea races ( which it looks like you are working towards).
I imagine you are part of the dev team.
So you should also know that the gunslinger deed dodge is not being replaced by the musket masters steady aim.
(Or at least steady aim said it should)
Automatic Bonus Progression does not appear in the “Optional Rules Systems”, so I’m wondering if I’m missing something or if this has not been added yet? (Pathfinder Unchained is loaded for source material)
I’m having the exact issue — were you able to figure it out?
I sent a ticket to support. Maybe I missed something.
hello,
please forgive me for posting this here as im not quite sure where exactly it should be posted. i have a question for you guys, if i may. i have use pcgen off and on for years and its great but i have found as of late it doesnt quite fulfill my current need for a campaign management app. i need something that will allow me to enter all my custom/homebrew information, such as skills, items, modifiers that some items give to other items from a crafting standpoint, and a way to be able to create items using a specific crafting system from within the program. i highly doubt there is such an app that actually exists, especially for free. i have tried several different of the online campaign management website, like world anvil etc, and theyre really not that useful in this regard. i personally have almost zero coding skills and while im currently trying to learn how to code java using netbeans i would like to know if you have any suggestions maybe in a script or app that i could modify to be able to do this. or even a program that already exists that will allow me to set this up the way i want. any information or tips that could be provided in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
thank you and Nyx’s blessings upon you and your team.

In Java 8 or 9?
Java 8.101 (64-bit)
Confirmed, 101 breaks 6.06.00 at least. But 6.07.00 works fine (at least on my system). I let our code team know.
Cool, thanks, I’ll take a gander at 6.07.00 then!
Note, you can run the jar file directly it’s the exe file that seems to be borked.
The 102 hotpatch fixes this.

Brilliant, will try that, thanks Paul

I’m seeing this working correctly in 6.06.00 & 6.07.00. What version are you using? What sources are you using?
Version: 6.06.00
Sources: Pathfinder RPG Core Supplements, Rise of the Runelords Player’s Guide
Other weapons are scaling but the dwarven double waraxe did not go from 1d10 to 2d8

Strangely, now when I uncheck “enlarge person” it gives me N/A for all the damage for the axe.
maybe i’ve missed it but how does one add a heritage variant for something?
What books do you get from?

I’m the PR guy, i handle most of the public interaction.
What version are you running? Blood of the night is in 6.06.01. And the place to report bugs is jira pcgen org.

Thanks!
Ya, been trying to find this too!
When is Occult being added.
is the familiar folio going to be added ? or is it in there already and i just cant find it im using 6.06.01
is there a way to manually add new/homebrew races and classes to the program?
There sure is, and Andrew made a whole video series on how to make your own data.

Any version compatible with mac OS Sierra?
If you download the Universal version run the pcgen.jar file. It’s a Java executable.
The Java JAR file “pcgen.jar” could not be launched.
Check the console for possible error messages

Make sure you have Java installed on your system.
Already installed Java directly from Apple.

I get an error like this, what should I do?
Failed to load campaigns, see log for details
Do you get this when loading a character or loading sources?
