I haven't used all the features yet, but this is the first RPG database that I feel I can use during a game.
I do have the nits, and I'll take them up with NBOS, but the program is easy to use with minimal use of the help system. I really like how this application works well with other NBOS appllications (Inspiration Pad Pro and Character Sheet Maker and even Screen Monkey). For my upcoming Traveller campaign I'll be using this to keep track of all the things that happen. I can use my laptop as a GM's screen and the Keep to handle dice rolling and character sheets.
One really positive thing that this does is to allow a second screen to be used to show things to players. And I happen to have an extra LCD or two lying about.
There are a few things I think of as flaws, but maybe I just don't know how to do them:
- Sometimes I'd like to open multiple windows, and I haven't found a way to do this.
- I can't figure out how to make hyperlinks work within the Keep; I assume they'll work if I publish the information.
