The product says that it can "create a dungeon or town, populate it with monsters and NPC's" as well as is capable of letting you "manage your entire RPG campaign". It at most lets you create characters and that is only able to be done with a learning curve.

Ok , where do i begin. Well first of all it took several days before i got my proper download to even use this item. Then to my disappointment i cant even make maps with this hunk of crap! i saw this item on a different website which showed nice screen shots of maps plus the other features it offered. What i didnt realize is that when i purchased it it sent me to this site to download it and the item i downloaded was campaign suite extended not campaign suite which was shown on the page. The original was discontinued and that had the map editor i guess and this version although its extended which usually means more features added to something not removed does not. So i am very disgusted because i wasted my money and wished i had chosen either the fractual mapper or campaign cartographer that i was looking at. It has a couple ok features for generating things. Its not that user friendly. I would never recommend this product. Dont waste your money. Wish i could get my money back!

I have no idea where you saw the website showing maps and stuff - that was long before we tied the program to a mapper. Our website makes no mention of it, neither do any of the supported websites. If you could let me know where you saw this, that would be a great help to me. I have no control over outside websites showing screenshots that were discontinued 6 or 7 years ago. |

This program promises a great deal and it does do a great deal. I find it very difficult to use and very counterintuitive, and I am a novice at neither role-playing nor computers. <br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: Difficult to use. <br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Disappointing<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Disappointed<br>

This product is not up to the level of DMGenie as a computer RPG utility for d20 3.5 Fantasy. It took a long time to get to this version, and I notice that INTIMIDATION wasn't a CLASS skill for a fighter. I had to hand change it. This is sloppy. So is the program. I like that it supports d20 Modern. Sorry. I just didn't like it. However, I bought it, and I have faith that it will come around.

Was just wondering what the wait time is to get the registration key for this product?
Usually it arrives within minutes of the purchase, but as of several hours later have not yet received it. Is this one of those purchases where you should expect to receive it some time during a 72 hour time frame? If you mentioned that during the purchase process I probably overlooked it.
Thanks,
Paul G. Stout

I'm afraid I don't fully understand this comment - RPGNow provides a full download link to Campaign Suite Extended, no registration key required.

If you have the time and patience, this is an excellent product. All data for a campaign setting must be entered manually, from racial data to equipment. There isn't really much support from other users, even on the Yahoo group. They do have a few setup files there, but usually not what you're looking for, which leads us back to the start of this review.

Are they ever going to do a 3.5 update??? Not worth your time if you have upgraded to the new core rules.

Probably the best campaign manager of several I've used. easy and straightforward to use, very comprehensive. Could be updated a little more often.

It is a good program for generating NPCs and keeping track of lots of the details that come up as games progress. It's usefulness at the game table is limited, however, beyond creating characters.

This is a truly outstanding product. In addition, the staff at Twin Rose is very friendly and helpful. I had a minor problem installing the software, but was able to get help from the Vice-President of the company at 10 pm by chat. the next day, I swapped emails with Chris, the software designer and Pres. Needless to say, the problem was solved and only involved changing the extention of the file to .exe
These are the kind of folks the gaming community needs to support. You can do almost anything you need to for a d20 game and it is not difficult to learn. I am looking forward to using this program for a long time to come.

Great piece of software and the expansions avaiable add even more to Campaign Suite.

All in all a very nice product. However, it does have some issues with WindowsXP. Twin Rose has put out several updates for Campaign Suite so far and some have had better compatability with my OS than others. Some menu features are currently unavailable to me due to the bugs and others give an error but can be worked around. It would easily be 5/5 if it wasn't for the bugs.
