Dungeons and Dragons Character Creation Program v1.45 (PSP Lua misc)

Here’s a simple D&D Character Creation program. This is really a time saver if you play D&D and have your PSP handy. It has nice, polished graphics and an image font. This program is based on D&D 3.5 core rules. You pick your class and race and then it gives you your… : HP, Base Attack Bonus, Ability Rolls, Ability Modifiers, Saving Throws Gear (starting package from the Players Handbook). This version fixes the font (again), along with a MAJOR problem of non-random numbers.http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=4185
