For Smooth Talker, you can only select a single skill from the list no matter how many ranks you have in the talent.
Is this per the FFG RAW? I looked for a rules clarification about this on this forum and I found someone who asked the same question in the errata thread but that question wasn't answered (by anyone, dev or fan).

The AoR CRB has a slightly more specific description of the talent (page 156):
When a character first acquires this talent, he chooses one skill: Charm, Coercion, Negotiation, or Deception. When making checks with that skill, he may spend [Tr] to gain additional [su] equal to his ranks in Smooth Talker.
So yeah, ranks are just for more successes, not for more skills.
I hav tired to find the SW:EotE Character Generator but the link goes to a disabled page of drop box. Is this temporary? I hoped to start this new RPG with a few of my friends and a generator would make the process much more enjoyable.
Link appears to be down, cant download it, too much traffic?
DropBox is picky about bandwidth usage when you have a free account. So, my public DropBox links tend to get randomly suspended, depending on how many people are downloading the apps at any given period of time.
So far, Copy.com seems to be cool with downloads. This is probably because they're not used as often
So, try using the Copy.com links. For my personal install, I use Copy.com.
Both sets of links are in my signature, below.
Hey OggDude. Hope you are doing well. I have been using the tool lately in a new campaign and it has helped tremendously with character creation and encounter management for me as the GM.POSSIBLE ERROR?I think that the talent of "Burly" is not working correctly, or might not be accounting correctly for encumbrance. When a character takes "Burly", it is supposed to lower the cumbersome and encumbrance of weapons 1 level per rank to a minimum of 1. But I don't think it is doing it. An encumbrance 3 weapon is still a 3 even after the character takes the talent. The character has a "Blaster Rifle" of encumbrance 3 and it does not reduce to 2. Not sure if this is a bug or just a giant pain to account for, but I thought I would let you know. Currently, we just account for it manually and ignore the indication of encumbrance on the character sheet.Many thanks!Lobo
I was under the impression that Burly only reduced the ENC of Cumbersome weapons. Was I mistaken or is that why it didn't modify it? I am AFPC. (with it loaded)
Edited by FangGripThe RAW in Dangerous Covenants reads:
The RAW in Dangerous Covenants reads:
"Reduce any wielded weapon's Cumbersome quality and Encumbrance rating by a number equal to ranks in Burly to a minimum of 1."
Good to know.

You need to at least Carry the item in order for the reduction to take place.
The lightsaber damage seems off, it seems to have stopped calculating the shoto hilt -1 dam. And seems to be adding up wrong. Can you double chack all the math is being calculated?

I just added a barab ingot (base damage 8) to a shoto hilt and it's showing damage as 7.
What attachments and mods are you using?
Hmm, the character is carrying and equipping the blaster rifle and it is not reducing the encumbrance rating. It is still adding 3, instead of the 2.
Here are some screenshots:

As far as I know, the Blaster Rifle normally has an encumbrance of 4, so adding 3 is correct. Here's my results. This is before equipping the blaster rifle (notice, it has enc of 4):
And here's after it's carried. Enc drops to 3, and that's all that's added:
This is with the Heavy spec added and Burly selected on the top left.

I just tried it with a dantari crystal and on my end, it's showing up as a 6 damage. Do you have any talents that would add 2 to your damage? Remember that "Shown" weapons try to incorporate all attachment and talent bonuses to damage so you don't have to do the math while you're playing.

Ataru striker no damage bonuses from talents. In tonight's game i added one damage mod and and the decreased crit mod. and now it is showing 10 damage. Something is definitely goofy.

Does the description of the dantari crystal say that it's base damage is 7? Did you make any custom changes to the hilt or the crystal attachment? Did you check the talent list of your character sheet and see if one of them might do extra damage?

OMG! You are totally right! I stupidly did all of my testing within the character that had burly selected already....so the encumbrance was 3. Thank you. That was driving me crazy. My player rolled him first and he was the only one with a heavy weapon, so I didn't check in the others.
Sorry for wasting your time on this one....

From the launcher, click "App Folder", then open the Data directory. The files should be there. Also, you can run the editor and make sure that neither the hilt nor the crystal have been customized.
Not sure what random characters you saw, but the installer is Microsoft's, not mine
It does what it does and I really have no control over it.
Are there any instructions for creating a new Specialisation?

Thanks for the reminder. I've been meaning to comment on how awesome and extensive your documentation is. I'm used to little to no documentation on programs other than big publisher stuff, and you have over 100 pages between the manual and FAQ. Very impressive and well done.
