TOS Community Forum

Okay, this is a new development. Having plugged the new (temporary?) URL (http://69.42.58.70/~theo9774/forum/) into my IE Favorites properties, I come here, enter my username and password... and clicking on the Enter button brings up a 404 error screen. But when I use the IE Favorite to getr back h...

That is where I was talking about. My guess is that the Domain name change has not fully propagated out through the interweb. You also may need to refresh your local dns to correct any entries stored there. Propagation can take from 24 hrs to 72 hours... You can also delete the 'old' cookies from y...

It has to (fix itself...)

They refer to "theonlysheet.com" and that still points to the old host...

Some of the linking is not working, but I am guessing that will be corrected when the domain name is transferred over. (I.E. the Class lists point to theonlysheet.com) Yes I figure as well... Once the propagation ends (most likely next week) then I can start to check which links are broken and fix ...

I might try to set that up for you Guys... it'll be a bit more Dynamic than posting messages! HEHEHE (and quite 'in theme" with TOS+ !)

ALL RIGHT! After some work, I was successful in transferring the whole TOS files to the NEW servers!!! The Domain Name will start to change tomorrow, so for now, the URL for the Homepage/Forum is http://69.42.58.70/~theo9774/ Because PhpBB version 3 is still in Beta testing, I'll wait until it is of...

I have been experiencing many issues with my current HOST (Yahoo!) enough so that I WILL change hosts. This is the ANNOYING error I have been getting in the last few days... Did you get the same error!? http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n201/Moo_Master_of_Orion/YahooError.png In any case, I will be...

The Tavern is the wrong place to ask for Help...

The Academy of Wizardry [TOS Help Desk] is used for TOS

TOS+ Help Desk is used for TOS+

Please use the proper sections!!
Thanks!!

In case you missed the discussion, I added some dice icons/smilies for the Forum - these could be useful for the PbP Games! :d2: :d3: :d4: :d6: :d8: :d10: :d12: :d20: :d100: Use this syntax to create: :d2: :d3: :d4: :d6: :d8: :d10: :d12: :d20: :d100: Or click on the "View more Emoticons" l...

Actually, the Wiki currently stands as the user guide. Alas, few people have contributed to it.

A small ad of TOS+ has also appeared in the last issue of Dragon magazine, page 115!

Folks!

A small ad for TOS+ can be found in the last issue of DUNGEON magazine!!
Can you find it ?

Wow!! Monte Cook talks about the Sheet!! The D&D Godlike figure MONTE COOK himself, one of the 3 makers of the Player's Handbook, has posted a nice little comment about The Only Sheet!!! ** His reply does not seem available anymore, but I captured a screen grab that I posted below! WOW !!!!! admin

Yeah it is sad that it will end...I just hope I can grab an issue of each!

Below, is a breakdown of where people first heard about TOS+ In both the last issues of Dungeon Magazine and the Dragon Magazine (that will come out at the end of August, I am told), a small publicity for TOS+ will appear... I will be very curious (and nervous!) to see if these will have any impacts...

Hello: I have the most recent version of TOS. However, I would like to create a new character, an Urban Ranger/half-Drow. Neither that class nor race are options from the pull down menus. How do I go about creating that kind of character? Do I have to use the customize functions for both class and ...

If you subscribed to TOS+, you received 2 email - In the 1st email, you received this link:

Folks, I am happy to report that the first video of the basic usage of TOS+ is now online!! It will walk you through the creation of a simple character using The Only Sheet+. The video is best viewed within a LARGE window - use F11 in your browser to toggle the maximum viewing area! Click HERE to wa...

Hey folks!!

Neil (shai-hulud) has created an AWESOME Tutorial for TOS+, and I've added some highlighted arrows (Callouts) to help focus the viewer on the target area - let us know what you think!!

This is not exactly right: The LapTop worksheet allows you to activate up to 19 Spells, Powers, Class Abilities, Racial abilities, Feats, Weapons etc etc. This is not the "number" of effect, but rather the number of items you can activate - Items that are NOT permanent in nature. For Items...

Will TOS be continued to be supported and updated, or is it being phased out in favor of TOS+ ? I am not currently working/thinking of upgrades for TOS, but only for TOS+. TOS remains an option for those who prefer a faster/simpler Sheet (it does have more content than TOS+, but this is likely to c...

1:Does TOS+ have a similiar setup for printing character sheets as TOS for offline play? Yep. 2:Or is a TOS registration included when purchasing TOS+ ? No. TOS and TOS+ are different products. TOS+ is has a more advanced design. 3:Any plans for making TOS or TOS+ online compatible with say ... goo...

In all honesty, you really can't compare the two. I disagree... You can compare 'features' and create a table of which sheet does what (like they do when they compare software) Some of the comparison would be on features (like does it do Gestalt) and other would be more subjective (how easy is it t...

TOS is better yes, but I don't know that it is by a huge margin. Not sure how it runs vs. TOS+, though I'm sure TOS+ blows HF away. (I certainly hope it does anyway ;)). That is quite interesting to know - TOS+ is, by design, much more advanced then TOS (both Sheets are designed differently). I'd s...

It appears that when you add the dodge bonus to AC in that video, the AC goes from 12 to 11, dropping instead of increasing. Regardless, pretty cool. I invite you to check again... :) If you look carefully, you'll noticed that the AC actually goes from 12 -> 10 because of the RAGE ability which is ...

Thanks for the quick replies. I created a character using both TOS and Heroforge, went through six levels of updating, and could post a comparative review if you're interested. TOS is not as advanced as TOS+, as you can see in this post . TOS+ integrates a lot more then TOS and can be used to play ...
