The Only Sheet worth your time!

Is this usable after the 1yr subscription is over? Sounds great, for a GM, bit expensive for players...
Yes, the workbook will function as long as your PC/Excel does.
Many people extend their subscription passed the yearly mark because of all the goodies that comes from such a low priced tool/subscription ($1.88 per month....)
With an active subscription you have:
-> Access to free updates (check this link to view previous updates)
-> Access to community shared content (hundreds of shared files)
-> Technical support
-> Access to Play-by-post games
I'd like to think TOS+ is as useful for Players as it is for Game Masters.

Um...just out of curiosity, do you work for these guys?
Um...just out of curiosity, do you work for these guys?
No, why? (I did ask M. Vic Wertz permission to post this, in case you are wondering. Since they don't have their license yet, I cannot use the Trademarked name, as discussed in another thread. M. Werts suggested I use "PF RPG" in the mean time...)
OK great, thanks for the info, sounds like a good investment for me as a Pathfinder DM, I could keep track of all my players characters at once with this.
Yes, and you might find errors in their pen&paper versions :)
On a side note, one forum user created a Dungeon Master sheet to handle multiple players with TOS+ (i.e. subscribed Players send the DM their characters). I don't recall if he made it compatible with TOS+ v2 though. I'll have to ask him. His tool is discussed here.

The OGL's prohibition against using other trademarks to indicate compatibility also precludes you from using "Paizo" (our trademark) or "D&D" (Wizards' trademark), I'm afraid. (I mention the latter merely for informational purposes; it's not my job to protect their trademarks.)
The Only Sheet Plus, one of the most powerful automated Character Sheet available for the D&D3.5 community has now been adapted to support the rules of Paizo's new Role Playing Game!! TOS+ Version 2.00 integrates the Rules of PF RPG (Beta) to allow users to easily create and maintain Characters using Paizo Publishing's excellent new Role Playing Game.
I used the original TOS a couple of years ago, and just recently signed up for the TOS+ because of the support for 'the new role playing game'.
It's worth every penny. Very easy to use. Because of the design, you can add in custom equipment, weapons, feats, just about anything. The support on the website forums is also top notch.

I received an answer from patransom, the creator of the Dungeon Master Tool for TOS+. Here is his reply:
Yep, it should work fine with PF RPG. There's a separate search-spot-listen page that uses the PF RPG version of the skills. Everything else should work exactly the same.
So there we go!

TOS+ v2.01 has been released, with a few bugfixes.
* The Combat Trick Rogue (P) Talent was granting 2 bonus feats instead of 1
* Feat selected for the Combat Trick Rogue (P) Talent was not displayed in the INFO section
* Disable Device was using INT instead of DEX in PF RPG (yep, it's different than D&D3.5!)
Happy gaming!

Just wondering if you can use OpenOffice instead of Excel. And will OpenOffice on a Mac run it.
I really don't feel like putting out at least $60 just to get a copy of MS Office 2000 on Ebay, then pay $22.50 a year for a character sheet.
I would also rather run it on my Mac rather than my crappy PC.
Just wondering if you can use OpenOffice instead of Excel. And will OpenOffice on a Mac run it.
Alas, TOS+ does not function on the Mac (it is too compex for Excel Mac to handle - weird, but Excel Mac is not 100% compatible with Excel Windows). It is even worst with the 'free' spreadsheet applications.

I was using TOS for quite a long time years ago and that was great to use. I fell out of play for a long while, but found time to get back into gaming. I went hunting down My TOS copy (Years pass and computers change) and opened it to create a character. I saw the update button and clicked it to see what updates there were.
Holy cow! Not only did I buy TOS+, but I'm now effectively near having a life subscription on the forums there. What is it Richard, 2022 that my sub ends? I don't mind contributing to a project that just keeps improving and evolving.
When Richard took on the task of developing and deploying TOS+ 2.00 (now 2.02) as a means of incorporating Pathfinders Rule Set I had no doubt Richard was going the right direction. I think Pathfinder has definitely taken D&D the direction another company should have gone and with TOS+ following the same thinking, I can only see good things ahead for both.
Richard, I've been actively using pat's DM Spreadsheet for the Rise of the Runelords: Burnt Offerings PbP on your forum and have had no problem at all with it. All you do is download the DM Sheet (free) and load each character to it and you have everything right there for fast and easy reference.
It's awesome.

Papa.DRB, this is from the main webpage for TOS:
1 The Only Sheet is created using Microsoft Excel 2003 on Windows. It may not work on older versions of Excel or non-Windows systems. It is NOT compatible with other spreadsheets applications. TOS+ REQUIRES the very latest Excel service pack from Microsoft!
Hope this helps!
I bought TOS a while ago and I never got it to work... It would not let me enter my personal key at all so I couldn't use the sheet.
TOS (as opposed to TOS+) has been renamed 'TOS FREE' and can be downloaded form the Home Page - and it does not require activation. Note that unlike TOS+, TOS FREE is exclusively for D&D3.5
Active subscribers to TOS+ can peruse the community Forum to get free technical support for issues they might have... There are a lot of people using TOS+, so I am sure your issue was not caused by the Sheet (I'd get swamped with emails if I released a defective product)
You did not answer the question about Open Office instead of Excel on a Windows PC
Like I said, TOS+ does not even function on the Macintosh version of Excel... TOS+ pushes the envelope too much to work correctly on anything else than Excel on Windows - and even so, Excel needs to be patched to the latest service release, as un-patched Excels have critical bugs!
Cheers!

Well, I paid and it was a few months ago so I assume I have TOS+. What do I need to do to get the right sheet or whatever I need.

At first glimpse, it looks neat... I'll give it a whirl at work tomorrow.
Cheers!
Remember that the DEMO version is an incomplete version (with reduced functionality). The Video section on the homepage can also give you a fairly good idea of how powerful and dynamic TOS+ is...

TOS+ v2.10 Released!
Another update to TOS+... and more power to the user!
MODIFIED:
The Spells selection list in the Spell Planners is now Dynamic:
ADDED:
Added the b_SingleActionOnly boolean, which evaluates to TRUE if the character cannot take a full attack action. In such case, the Laptop worksheet will display only the Single attacks for the defined weapons. This occurs when these conditions are used:
Added the b_NoActions boolean, which evaluates to TRUE if the character cannot take any attack actions. In such case, the Laptop worksheet will not display any attack for the weapons. This occurs when your Dexterity falls to zero, or one of these conditions are activated on the Laptop worksheet:
