Click here for SW:EotE Character Generator - Latest Release
 
 
Hi everyone.  Thought I’d let you all know that I’ve been working on a SW:EOTE character generator for the past month.  It is very close to completion; I’m mainly still adding data (some descriptions are not in place yet).  It pretty much allows you to create any character you can possibly create from the Core Rulebook.  It also supports special talents such as Jury Rigged, Dedication, etc., and allows you to add any weapon or armor attachment you want.  I’ve created a four-page character sheet that you can print, based around the design concept from the characters in the Basic Game (which I thought was cleaner than the sheet found in the Core Rulebook).
 
Future additions will include starships/vehicles, group sheets (including obligation tables), and NPC and encounter group generator.
 
I've written this in .NET using C#, so it'll be for the Windows platform and will require the .NET 4.0 framework.  The data files are all in XML, so they can be easily modified if you want to add your own piece of equipment, new skills, etc.  I currently do NOT have a data editor in the works, but I may write one if I get enough requests.
 
I’m including some screen shots here so you can take a look at how the screens are laid out and what the character sheets look like.  I'd appreciate feedback on how the layout could be improved, features I may have missed, requests for new features, organization of the character sheets, etc.  If you have any specific questions concerning how features are implemented, just ask!
 
Again, I'll be releasing the actual product for testing shortly, so please bear with the screen shots for now.
 
Thanks in advance,
 
OggDude

Hi!
 
A while ago, I created a basic custom card template for NPCs, ships, weapons and other categories. The main problem was both getting the data and finding good images.
I wanted to relaunch the project of generating adversary cards that can be easily used at the table, and I would like to offer my current results with you:
 
Star Wars RPG: NPC & Creatures Cards
 
 

 
I took the data available at swrpg.viluppo.net and integrated them within Adobe InDesign to automatically generate NPC cards. Currently, there are 530 adversaries in their database and you can find as many cards to download.
This is an ongoing project and I am not sure if all calculations and code work correctly, so I am looking forward to both feedback regarding some errors / logic mistakes but also hints for design. I plan to tweak the design a little bit in the next few weeks but I wanted to get the cards out now.  
 
I used a few resources, credits for those go to:
 
Data: Aahzmandius_Karrde, putting all the work in to bring the data to the index
Stat Block Format: C. Steven Ross from Triumph and Despair for his revised stat block I took inspirations from
Stat Block Template: Triliean for his template I merged with my old template

Additionally, some of you have asked for an empty, fillable template which I have created as well:

It's fillable with Adobe Reader and should allow you to create your own cards. The template functionalities are pretty limited, e.g. no dice symbols.

So it's a more sandbox approach.  This might seem like heresy, but it might not be a bad idea to get the D&D Dungeon Master's Guide.  All the tables you could ever want for random encounters are in there...wilderness, city, etc, plus plenty more for random dungeon/temple building.  If you strip away its D&D-ness, it's a really good resource.  Obviously you'd have to translate them to Star Wars, but it can't be that hard:  pack of orcs = squad of stormtroopers, etc.
Too bad about the cost of those decks, that's ridiculous.
I can't point you to free resources on temple maps and the like, but I'm a big fan of sites like DriveThruRPG.com.  There are a ton of profession and fan-made maps, adventures, and other resources.  There are some really good ones for $5, and plenty more that are "pay what you want".

Actually I just saw this thread, might be some useful links in there:
