Just updated Dicer to 1.9.3.4
Hopefully this catches the exception that crashes the program if the character file pointed to in the Registry is not present.
As usual it is uploaded to the Workspace.
A Blog experiment to better facilitate the exchange of ideas and information about the various RPG campaigns I am involved with.
Just updated Dicer to 1.9.3.4
Hopefully this catches the exception that crashes the program if the character file pointed to in the Registry is not present.
As usual it is uploaded to the Workspace.
Added 1.9.3.2 to http://workspace.office.live.com/
In case you guys want the Rapid Share Link: Link
It is under “RPG - Exalted Past” Project Folder, and “Tools” Sub-folder.
This version added the Statistic tracking ability. Now all die rolls rolled from WW Character Page will be kept track off.
It keeps track of total rolls, number of successes achieved, and how often each number is rolled (1-10).
Character files have also been updated to save the data. In effect each character’s “Rate of Success” is kept track of separately. So be-sure to save the character after each session to ensure the data is accurate.
To look at the stats just use the new “About” Dialogue. The button is added to the Tool Strip on top. It is the Windows Information Icon (Blue Circle with an “!” in the center).
The ComboBox let you select which stats you want to see.
The Clear Button Clear the Currently Selected Data, Resetting it to 0.
Incase you guys missed it, I added the “Math:” keyword in 1.9.3.0. The “Temp Holder” tab has the text box that is effectively an calculator. All you have to do is type in a math expression.
More information can be found on the 1.9.3.0 Post
The 1.9.3.2 Rar file contains the Exalted Template that uses the new Math: keyword if you guys want to see an example of how it is used. Just look in “Personal” and “Peripheral Essence Pool”.
Added the new version to both Office Workspace and Rapidshare.
Added the new “Math: “ Keyword for Specialties which allows parsing of math expressions.
You will need the 2 dll that is included in the rar.
The way the “Math:” keyword work is
In the Temp Holder Page, when you load a character, will be a list of Value Entries on the character sheet.
Clicking on the list will add it to the text box on top in the form of
@~|VariableName@~|
It adds to where the cursor is.
You can use it to form the math expression then you can copy the whole line, including the “Math: “ Part, and paste it in a specialty slot in the skill entries.
It is still a bit clunky and prone to errors, but it should make you guys life a little easier.
Uploaded the new Dicer to the Tools Folder of the Office Space and also uploaded it to RapidShare

The only thing I added (from 1.9.2.1) is a Calculator Function at the “Temp Holder” Tab of the program.
Haven’t decided on if I want to revamp the whole character sheet to use Evaluated Math Expressions instead of the clunky Func Format I am currently using yet. We’ll see.
If I decide to do it that way the character sheets will most likely be redone.
It will let you directly enter math formulas with Variables (probably enclosed in special characters, like “variable name” or @variable name@). This would solve the annoying limitation on DV calculation and Essence calculation of the current program.
Personal Essence: @Essence Stat@ * 5 + @Virtue: Compassion@ + @Virtue: Conviction@ + @Willpower@ * 2
Which is far more versatile, but it will take up a lot of time. So I probably won’t bother.
Uploaded Dicer 1.9.1.11 to the Workspace.
Updated Dicer to 1.9.1.10
