Hey sorry for being such a slacker OldSam! I’ve been meaning to reply to you but just keep falling down the internet rabbit hole.
I totally agree about the Template display but that’s how the GURPS Character Assistant exports them with the “bookish layout {txt}.gce”. That file is available at Your text to link here…
The reason I use that particular file for exporting is it actually has an option to export to Textile so you don’t end up with weird numerical displays.
I could just go back and add actual bonus but I’m a bit lazy for that. Besides, when you load up the .gdf file you can see it there. :D
As far as more developers, I say go for it! It’s one of the reasons I made it all available here rather than hiding the campaign. Feel free to download the files and share your input! Link your own conversion game to us and lets start sharing conversion ideas and tweaks.
One comment to the racial templates: It would be much more easy if the bonus-value is written down as a number, rather than just the point cost. So e.g. for the Troll-Template instead of “HT Bonus 50; ST Bonus 54;” I’d write HT Bonus +5 50; ST Bonus +6 54;"
Do you need additional developers? If you would include an open development part in the Wiki or in the Forums, other persons could publish more material to complete your conversion and to offer some alternative takes on a few things… :) I’d be willing to help out with some parts, too.
Thanks!! I only wish I’d found Obsidian sooner. I’d been using yahoo groups, blogger and even hand-written html sites. This site perfect and can’t wait to see what else they do with it.
I’ve played a lot of systems but I always end up saying, “Man, this would be so much better in GURPS.” :D

Great design and good work overall! thumbs up

Looking good … always nice to see a GURPS game up and running!
