Character Sheet Designer/The Keep Problem

Postby Naleax » Fri Mar 05, 2010 2:32 pm

Hello,

I've wanted The Keep for quite a while now and bought it during the GM's Day sale at RPGNow.com. I installed The Keep to my computer (Windows Vista Ultimate x64bit) and also installed Character Sheet Designer.

I cannot seem to get The Keep to open character sheet designs (.csd) from within the program. I can drag and drop .character files into The Keep but that is about it. I followed the directions in the manual for installing character sheet definitions but it still doesnt work. When i go to New Child, the character sheet option is grayed out.

I did see and update to version 1.01b on the website and updated but still no joy.

Can someone help me out here? Is drag and drop the only feature supported for character sheets into the keep. Despite this minor snag, this is a great program!

Thanks.

Have you used the Install Character Sheet menu under the File menu? How did you install the Keep... as a desktop app, or in portable mode?

I'm having the same problem. I'm running Win XP and installed as desktop app. I've tried going to File/Import Character Sheet Definition and it shows me a list of the character sheets I have on my system. I select any of them and basically nothing happens. When I go to add New Child/Character Sheet, the Character Sheet option is grayed out. I tried dragging a character sheet over and I get a message box saying character sheet it says one character sheet definition installed, but it is no where to be seen. Maybe it is just too late at night to be dealing with this right now.

Any ideas out there?

I've re-downloaded and re-installed character sheet designer/viewer and I still can't get the character sheets to work on my copy of The Keep. This is not the end of the world, but it would be nice to have working eventually.

P.S. - I still love The Keep!
