    Update 1.2.0

    This release marks a big milestone for the English version as it includes all rule books released so far. This includes the Compendium I, Magic of Aventuria and more. Also, there are quite a few fixes and a new Dutch translation.

    New Features

    • Dutch localization (including Core Rules)
    • Aventuria Compendium I English localization
    • Magic of Aventuria I English localization
    • The Warring Kingdoms English localization
    • Armory of The Warring Kingdoms English localization
    • Aventuria Armory I English localization
    • Aventuria Bestiary I English localization
    • Inns & Taverns English localization

    Enhancements

    • Shields are usually not used as the primary weapon, so the doubled PA bonus is now used on character sheet.
    • Improved Dodge I–III should not modify DO value as this should only happen when the hero does not wear armor.

    Hi all!


    As the Ulisses US forum does not seem to be actively used anymore, I want to provide a place for all of you who want to provide feedback or ask question regarding Optolith, my tool to create and manage characters for TDE5!


    Optolith manages most of the rules automatically, so ou don't need to take care of them anymore. It features a clean user interface, it's optimized for both mouse and touch interaction and you can checkout rules and crunch texts wile creating/editing/viewing characters without the need of switching to a different tab or app.


    Supported source books (names in parenthesis are partially or fully available in a prerelease version – more on this later):

    • Core Rules
    • Aventuria Almanac
    • (Aventuria Compendium)
    • (Aventuria Armory)
    • (The Warrings Kingdoms)
    • (Armory of the Warring Kingdoms)
    • (Inns & Taverns)
    • (Magic of Aventuria)

    All other books not listed here are not implemented, but I want to implement all available sources, so...

    Also, a supported book does not mean Optolith supports all contained optional rule!


    Download from the Scriptorium


    The tool is available for Windows 7+ (x86 and x64), Linux (Ubuntu 12.04+, Fedora 21+, Debian 8+; x64) and macOS 10.10+ (x64). Because I do not have a system running macOS, updates for macOS might be available later than those for Windows and macOS.


    If you like you can give feedback, report bugs etc. right here in this thread! :)


    On GitHub, you can check out a list of all reported bugs and feature requests I try to keep up to date. If you like, you can submit any bugs/feature requests/etc. there!
