EPIC (enhancement bonus) to Weapons, Armors and Shields added!

The Loot Divider can now handle the Epic (enhancement) bonus for weapons, armors and shields. To use that, use a bonus from +6 to +10. Do not forget the + sign, the Loot Divider needs it! For example, you can enter this: Longsword [+7] and you will get the (Epic!) value for such a longsword!

Added

Added the ability to define Epic weapons, armors and shields (i.e. +6 to +10 enhancement bonus)

Added these new types for custom gear: art, gem, jewelry, misc

NEW VIDEO! -> Introduction to The Loot Divider

I created a new video demonstration for the Loot Divider. Many users told me they learned a few new things from it! Check it out HERE.

More Loot!

The space available for items on the Treasure! page was increased from 198 to 500! Hopefully this should help with long campaigns!

Weapon Sizes

The ability to add the size in the property string of Weapons was added. Unfortunately, the [Pathfinder] rules just covers Small, Medium and Large weapons (value wise). The rest of the sizes are not covered in the rules. So any weapons tagged as Large or larger (Huge, Gargantuan, Colossal) will have twice the value. Otherwise, Medium or smaller weapons will have the same value as a medium weapon.

Armor Sizes

Thankfully, the rules for armor sizes take into account all available sizes. So in this update, you can now define armor and shields for any sizes. Note that only Humanoid types of armor sizes are processed.

Added

The ability to use sizes (Fine, Diminutive, Tiny, Small, Medium, Large, Huge, Gargantuan, Colossal) properties for weapons

Added

The ability to use sizes (Fine, Diminutive, Tiny, Small, Medium, Large, Huge, Gargantuan, Colossal) properties for [humanoid] armors

Added

Added the Unknown item Color entry for the reporting tool

Improved

Increased the number of rows in the Treasure! sheet from 198 to 500

Improved

Increased the width of many of the Columns in the Treasure! sheet

Improved

Increased the value allowed in QTY to 999,999,999

Improved

'Undetermined Value' items will now be highlighted in the bbcode Reporting tool

Improved

Specific selling rates will now be displayed in the bbcode/text Reporting tool

Updated

The selling rate in the Treasure! sheet was set to 50%

Fixed

Objects sold for less than 0 gp did not show the fractions in the Reporting tool

Treasure Quick Picks!!

Users who use the 32 bits version of Excel will have access to the new Quick Pick feature of this new update! The Quick Pick button, found on the Treasure! worksheet gives you a fast way to select an item, by listing all items alphabetically - or by group! The selected item will either be placed where the cursor currently resides (if in the appropriate column) OR otherwise be appended at the first 'free' slot. Try it out!

Special Materials

The special material listed in the Ultimate Equipment have been added in this update. One distinction is the Wyroot material. Since this material can be crafted at various quality levels, I have split those levels in three: wyroot1, wyroot2 and wyroot3. If you forget the last digit, the LD will assume you mean '1'. (i.e. wyroot = wyroot1)

Added

Added the Headband location (Pathfinder RPG)

Added

Added the poison item type

Added

Specific APG Armors from the Advanced Player's Guide book

Added

Firearms Ammo from the Ultimate Combat book

Added

Added the Equipment from the Ultimate Equipment book

Added

Added the Special Material from the Ultimate Equipment book

Improved

In the Item Tracker sheet: When a Player is selected in the item location puppet, any items that are positioned at the same slot will be highlighted red since they would be in conflict

Added

Ammunition with properties were not adding the unit value (usually very low cost, but still!) of the Ammo itself

Loot Divider Release Notes 2011

1.51
May 19, 2011

NEW Feature added!

While playing one of my Play-by-Post Pathfinder games, our group came across a new magical ring, useful to melee type characters (we have 3 in our group). I realized that I did not know which character would best make use of it, as I had no idea what magical items they were already wearing! So it dawned on me that it would be nice to have a visual representation of what a Character is wearing (specially magic wise). The Item Tracker sheet now features a humanoid image with location arrows; items entered in that sheet will be shown near the location you defined for them. This feature can be used in conjunction with the treasure found (and listed in the Treasure! sheet) or by itself

Added

Added the ability to display a character's items on a humanoid shaped figure in the Item Tracker

Added

Added a location column to the Item Tracker worksheet

Added

Added an All Item check box in the Item Tracker worksheet which allows items to be picked up from ALL the items available, instead of just the items defined in the Treasure! sheet

Added

Added an 'auto-hide' feature to the Item Tracker worksheet which will hide columns where no characters are defined (Excel only)

Added

Added an "unhide" button to restore hidden columns of the Item Tracker worksheet (Excel only)

Added

ADDED from the Ultimate Combat: Bronze Age weapons, Eastern Armor and Weapons, Firearms, Firearms gear, Firearms ammunition and the Specific Firearm Ammunition, Firearm Special Abilities, Gladiator Weapons, Stone Age weapons, Wondrous Items

Improved

Player names cannot be typed in the Item Tracker worksheet; they are now automatically picked up from the Options worksheet

1.21
April 9, 2010

A few modifs!

Updated

The button in the Item Data sheet will now also copy the new item to the Data sheet (in the custom Area) so that this new item will be available for the other sheets as well (specifically, the Group sheet). This will allow the Group sheet to keep a permanent record of custom built items which will not be required to exist in the Treasure! sheet any more. This assumes you have access to Excel macros and have not completely filled the custom area!

Updated

Increased the width of the Item Name columns in the Group sheet to use the full width on printouts.

Fixed

A typo in all the names of the arcane scrolls!

1.20
April 6, 2010

Release notes for the Loot Divider, version 1.20

Added

A new sheet was added called the Players' Loot. This sheet has a similar function to the Item Tracker, but offers more automation for those who have access to Excel Macros. Instead of listing an item, then placing the 'value' of this item in the player's column as the Item Tracker does, the Players' Loot gives each player a column from which items in the Treasure! sheet can be selected. When such an Item is selected, a Macro will automatically pick up the value from the Treasure! sheet, adjusted by the rate (standard or custom), and attach it to the selected Item!

Added

Added the 'scroll' type to support scrolls

Added

All the scrolls presented in the SRD (here) have been added. These are from the 3.5 rule set.

Added

Two new forum section have been added to complement the existing Resources section and the Help desk section. These are the Bug report section, where users can report any problems discovered, and the Suggestion box section, where users can drop in ideas on how to improve the Loot Divider.

Improved

The '$' symbol will no longer override the 'Assigned to' person: Previously, if you found an item like a Painting$500 and you assigned it to a player, the Sold For amount would sill appear and the money would be 'split' amongst the players. Now, the 'Assigned To' content will override the '$' symbol, which means that the Painting$500, if assigned to "Bob", will not display the Sold For value any more. In other words, when you assign the item to someone, in all cases the sold for value will disappear, except as explained in the next bullet.

Improved

The ability to use the 'Assigned to' column to hold a small note instead of an assignation was added. If this column starts with an open parenthesis, then this is considered a note, and the item will still be sold. You could use this to indicate who purchased this item or anything you deem necessary. For example: '(sold to Guard)'.
