Fits the glove a bit better, I think... although it still is not all too well
I would find it odd to call being bashed in your face by a monk a "meditation", you know?

Give us a few more ideas, people!

Heya Folks!

We could use a little help! :D

Right now we've added all named powersources. We are looking how to name the powers of a specific source. So right now we use:

Talents for Psi
Channelings for Primal
Mysteries for Shadow
Maneuevers for Ki/Soul
Invocations for Elemental

If you guys got any better Ideas (or Ideas at all) just let us know and post away!

Thanks,
James and Chris


I think you and I had this conversation once in another thread . I still feel that Primal powers should be talents and Psionics should be gifts.

In my forthcoming monk update, I'm using Ki Techniques. Technique is an ugly translation for kata or Jutsu which is where I figured WotC would go with Monks and other Ki sources.

This looks awesome guys. I'll give a try the moment you release it and give full credit anytime I post my work. I'm already hashing out ideas for some giant toads (since the MM1 seems to lack these guys).

While it's not perfect, I think it's not much odder than getting bashed by a paladin with a sword with a "prayer".

Cheers, LT.

That one I give you, is true!

We will take all possibilities into consideration, both from here and EnWorld!

Serious now, this looks to be an interesting program. I have to ask though, why Java? I have problems running PCGen (also Java-based) and it's not cause of my PC specs or the version Java I am running. It's because the program is clunky and very slow to respond to my actions.


Having been programming with Java for over 3 years at my current job I can state with a fact that bad programming can make Java applications very slow while good programming can make applications nearly as good as native.

For instance, programmers trying to do too much in the event dispatch thread and not farming the work out to SwingWorkers or background threads can cause GUI programs to become very unresponsive.

I'm not sure how to resolve the formatting issue offhand, but if I run into a possible resolution I'll post it here.

Something I did want to point out from looking at your screenshots is that it seems you're using the standard metal theme instead of the system-specific one. You can try using this code to see if you like the look-and-feel any better:

try {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InstantiationException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

I looked a little more into JTextArea and wanted to ask, did you set the editor kit for the text area? It defaults to plain text, so you might try to set it to either StyledEditorKit or RTFEditorKit.

Very big THANK YOU, Kainsin!
I will bump E_L to this thread ASAP, as he is doing the Java work!

Well, I hadn't been really thinking about the theme, but I think I'll do that. Thanks for the tip.

AHA! You, my friend, might just have solved the major issue with our program. I'll check tonight and see if that works.

Speaking as someone who's being programming in Java for 3 years without being paid for it (), it's nice to have you on board.
