***** UPDATE/EDIT *****
Please refer to:
http://true20.wikidot.com/

Thanks to the efforts of some folks I wish I knew better, this is becoming the list/resource that I hoped to create here...support this wiki and use it!The collections of conversions alone is fantastic!!!

>WBM
***** THANKS! *****

Being relatively new to the community, AND having looked into the history of the topics around here I have seen LOTS of useful sheets with great True20 info on them. Recently, my searches of the topics haven't produced the results I wanted. Can someone help me compile a list of links to the user created tools that here on the boards? The idea is to try and create a topic like the Library so new folks can come to one thread and see what the community has produced for people running and playing this game.

Things I'd like to see:
Character Generators and Sheets
Narrator Screens
Cheat sheets for damage and condition tracking
Alternate rules of all stripes

Anything else that would fall in that you have found useful in your games.

If something like this is already here somewhere I'd like to know. All suggestions welcome.

The fatigue save tracker I posted some time back.
True Star Wars (playable)

Monster Roles for easier Narrating.

I often come across as a big jerk. This is completely unintentional.

The damage rules from baduin are a must have and his DnD conversion is a great addition.

See post http://www.true20.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2190 for more details.

The link below is for a Word document that contains my revised firearms rules for Burst Fire and Autofire, plus converted versions of all the firearms in the d20 Modern SRD.

This document contains a copy of the OGL found at the back of the True20 Adventure Roleplaying core book. If hosted elsewhere or included in a publication, it must contain that text.

I also made up an adversary damage track.

With it you can keep up with the damge of up to 20 adversaries -- 40 if you print the damge tracks on both sides of the page.

There is a place to put the adversary's name (or number), Toughness save bonus, and check boxes for each damage condition for non-lethal and lethal damage.

Enjoy!

And let's not forget the True20 Goes to the Movies thread! It's a great source for NPC stats of all levels and roles.

Yes, there was an Excel-based character generator that I put together. It can be downloaded from here:

::takes a deep breath::

Okay, I'm adding this to the mix.

Under the Sea is a True20 underwater supplement that I have only just finished. This is version 1.0, and I hope to receive some constructive criticism to make future versions even better. I'd eventually like to see it expanded into a full-fledged sourcebook, but let's not get too far ahead of ourselves.

There's The New Power's Collection of powers or new uses for existing powers proposed on these forums. It's not complete, as I miss stuff and sometimes it is hard to tell a discussion of possibilities from an actual new power, but it could be useful.
If that's pure logic I'll take vanilla.

Okay after an hour of fiddlin' I THINK I've got a handle on how the list ought to look. Suggestions, contributions, and such welcomed, and appreciated. =)

On a related note, I've gotten the opportunity to test PBWiki 2.0, which includes such things as folders and page-level access control. I was thinking of using it to archive new and variant rules for True20, as a sort of Unearthed True Arcana. I'm decidedly -not- interested in a SRD-like "TrueWiki" that repeats material from any published source (though I'd be open to changes in existing powers or feats - there are a few I'd like to tweak!). I'm not sure, though, how much time I'll have (alot going on IRL), or if anyone would be interested in helping, or how interested people would be in general. My inclination is to not simply throw it open, but to start off with a small number of contributers.

Just throwing that out there.

Edit: Man, did I just kill -another- thread? Sheesh!

Nope!

Finals are killing my compilation of the list.

Does anyone know if I can get the topic "Sticky-ed" when its ready to go?


PS
(for me the point of this list is to point to the thread that birthed the "tool" so that newbies like me can see the history of the discussion before we get neck deep in the "where is Baduin's Damage system?" problem...

Maybe a FAQ is a good idea?

I dunno.
