Creature Library by Bruce A. Gulke (Digital Apprentice)
A database program for your home made creatures, the environment is similar to the one found in the AD&D Monstrous Compendium. This software is provided as a freeware but please read the legal notice. Legal Information!!
Mech Engineer Pro by Howling Moon Software
Mech Engineer is a freeware programs wich assist you in the creation of new Battletech Battle Mechs. It has been created by Howling Moon Software and his provided as a freeware. In my opinion it's an essential tool for any battletech gamer tired of scraping lots of paper in the process of creating a new battle mech. The software is concepted to work under the windows environment. It's easy of use, and it contains everything you need to create a brand new mech in about 10 minutes.
The Drawing Board 1.0.71 by Blackstone interactive
Another fast, easy and great battlemech creation freeware. Seems like all the good progs are for battletech ;-) anyway don't tink twice, you'll surely appreciate it!! Highly recommanded. Works under the windows system.
Battlemech Designer by Eric Ramey
Another Battletech Design program, and probably the best one!!, one bad side, does not support level 3 technology, but it's supposed to be include in v10. It has a lots of graphical informations, the print-outs are great and it's easy of use!!. Support quad mechs and mixed weapons technology. Even have a technical readout in Fasa style printing. Top choice, strongly recommanded!!!
Name Generator by Bruce A. Gulke (Digital Apprentice)
A really good name generator for fantasy and towns names. There is also some suplementary files for name like "middle earth", "taverns" and even some random "shakesperean" insults!!
Dice! by Armin D. Sykes
A powerfull dice roller, may lack some graphics effects but overcompensate it by letting you roll any dice combination you wish!! Strongly recommanded.
Pick Pocket by Wraith Systems Laboratories
A nice pick pocket roller for your no-brain-steal-all thieves!! :-) no really it's a nice little utility when game mastering a theives campaign.
For more in roleplaying games, like ready made character sheets, new original batlle mech, gaming maps and much more!! go to the Orb Keepers RPG Homepage!!
The easiest way to install those programs is:
Create a temporary folder (maybe something like: c:\temp)
Extract the content of the archives (zip files) in this folder
Run the installer (setup.exe, install.exe etc.) from this folder
Delete the temporary folder and it's content
Please note that all softwares have been separated in multiple archives of 1mb or less, for easier downloads, so you will need to extract the content of all the related archives in the same temporary folder to start the installation (ex: mep1.zip, mep2.zip, mep3.zip)
