Shop Inventory Generator

By MacKenzieHnC, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Hey, so I made an shop inventory generator to try and cut down the amount of time it takes to roll for specific items. It's got a bunch of neat features like different kinds of shops (legitimate, shady, or black market) and you can edit the odds that a specific kind of item will show up in each shop-type.

There's an .exe and a .jar (so if you're running a Mac, it should still work fine. Download the whole folder, and create a shortcut if you want the program on your desktop or something (the original needs to stay in the folder, though the folder can be wherever). Check it out, see if you like it, and if you have any problems, suggestions, or even ideas for a totally different program, email me at [email protected] . Enjoy, and happy RPing!

__How It Works__
---The program does a d100 roll plus modifiers against the item's rarity multiplied by 10
---The three shop types have different settings for nonrestricted, restricted, and lightsaber items. You can change the modifiers (positive numbers make the item more likely to show up and negatives make them less likely), so be sure to fiddle with the settings.
---Each point in Streetwise gives +5 to the roll starting at level 2 (0 streetwise = -10, 2 streetwise = 0, 4 streetwise = +10)
---Boost die are worth +5 a piece, and setbacks are worth -5.
---And finally, there's a markup option so you can choose a percentage range for the prices of each item. Just set the markups to 0 in the settings if you want stock prices.

(p.s. If there's any items missing, just send me an list. And if anybody out there cares enough to put a description for each gear item, I'd be happy to include it in the program to save even more time flipping through books, so you can spend more time actually playing.)

(p.p.s. There is a known issue where the program will not run if you have Java 7 and 8 installed simultaneously (which is more common of a problem than you'd think). So if you're having trouble running it, odds are that that's the issue. Let me know if you run into any other problems)

Do I have to download all the resource files, or just the exe?

Pick one of the two main folders and download all of it.

I've downloaded all of the resources. I'm using a Mac. When I open the .jar file to create a list I go through all 3 options, shady, streetwise and setback but after selecting Ok after the setback/boost dice option nothing happens. What do I need to do to fix this??? I've also changed all the settings to match the setting in the Txt file.

This is amazing and I love it! This makes shopping so much more dynamic.

I'm not a big fan of the forced "add negotiation skill and Presence" but I can simply ignore the check.

Good job!
