Myth Maker is a Character Sheet Editor for Pen and Paper Roleplaying Games. It uses Java and XML technologies.
The character sheets are very close to the original published character sheets. New character sheets can be added by using XML scripts. You can edit, save and print the character sheets, modify values etc.
Version 0.0.6 is the last version of MythMaker. It is version 0.0.5 repackaged with any new scripts that were created. No future versions are planned.
If your after the java source code for Myth Maker; it is included in the download.
I haven’t picked a license from the plethora of free licenses models out there. But basically it’s free including source code. If you want to devolpe further with it just drop me a mail and ask. You can pass it on, delete it, print it out etc. etc. as long as I get the credit, i.e. link to my website or my email etc.

Installation instructions
This is permanetly beta so it comes with the usual warnings. If it does stuff to your machine tough - not my fault
To install Myth Maker you need to have a valid JVM running on your machine. It must be at least JRE2. You can download the latest Java runtime for your OS from here.
Also this is a graphical application so it wont run in just console mode. I.e. you’ll need a graphical OS.
MythMaker-0.0.6.zip (3 megs) - This is just the jar and associated files. Extract them to the directory (using your favorite zip utility) you want to keep Myth Maker in and then run it by using java from a console:
java -jar MythMaker.jar
(In newer versions of windows and the JVM, you can also just click on MythMaker.jar like any other executable).

I like this software, this is so good

I’ve been working on a WW Mortals sheet, basing it off the Vampire sheet. When I try to load it, it just keeps giving me error messages. It is saved as a .mmscp and recognises that it is there but just won’t load it.
I haven’t worked on this software in seven years and you’re the first person I know if who’s trying to create their own sheet. If it was possible, do you have a copy of your .mmscp somewhere I can get it so I can try it myself?
Right-click: save target as. Add the extension .mmscp.
Save in the “World of Darkness (2nd Edition Revised)” sub-folder of scripts.
I finally had a look at your Mortals.mmscp. I found a number of mistakes in it (tags not closed, misspellings, etc.) and after I fixed those I was able to open it. I couldn’t get the “Mortals.Notes” to work on the last page for some reason though.
You can download your corrected Mortals.mmscp here (right click and “save target as”).
I use XMLMind as an editor for the script files, which is free for personal use.
Thank you for that.
