I’ve been a long-time user of Joe Chott’s CoH Planner<\/a> for forever-and-a-day (or at least as long as I’ve played CoH). BD pointed out<\/a> that the program hadn’t been updated in a while (since I5 or so — maybe a bit more recently, but definitely fallen behind), and recommended looking at Sherksilver’s Character Planner<\/a> instead.
\nDownloaded it this morning. A couple of thoughts.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Since it works, and is being updated, I’ll probably move to this. That’s made easier by the program’s import function, which will bring in a CoH Planner character into the system (kinda-sorta … a couple of glitches there).\n
  2. The user interface is similar (since the functionality is similar), though a lot busier and less well organized that Joe Chott’s program. One thing that both helps and hinders: slot levels for the enhancements are shown on the same screen, which is both a tremendous convenience and a lot more visual clutter. You do have control over nearly all the fonts and font sizes and font colors — and you need it, too.\n
  3. Sherksilver’s program has a lot of added features, tables, calculators, trackers, etc. It’s a much more complete resource. If all you’re doing is tracking slotting for your toons (99% of what I’m looking for), that’s not a huge benefit, but it’s interesting to view (e.g., look at movement speeds with different powers and enhancements on).<\/ol>\n

    So I’ll probably start converting my active toons over to the new program. Thanks for the reference, BD!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
