Old GCA 2/3 support

What is GURPS Character Assistant (aka GCA)? It's a program for creating and maintaining characters for the GURPS role-playing game. Click right here and we'll tell you more.

Support for previous versions of GCA, versions 2 or 3, has been moved to here.

As GCA 4 is now published by Steve Jackson Games, current versions of the program can be purchased and updated from them.

GCA may be available on CD from your local game store (but is currently out of print at SJGames), but your best option is to buy it from e23, Steve Jackson Games' online store for downloads. If you buy from e23, not only do you get it cheaper ($5 less!), but as long as you create an account there, you'll always be able to replace your lost copy by downloading another, just as you used to do from me. You probably can't do that if you lose the CD you bought at the store.

We now have the GCA Wiki up and running. Many thanks to those who have started to contribute already. We hope this will turn into a living, regularly updated, source for GCA help, docs, and info.

This site has now been reworked to include my support for GCA4 from Steve Jackson Games. The material here is of my own creation, and should not be considered to be "official" unless I mark it as such.

Documentation found here has not gone through editing at SJGames. As a result, you may find typos or other errors. You may also find the writing style to be much more casual. Best of all, you don't have to wait months and months for me to be able to post updates, since it can't get stuck "in editing".

For those of you looking for the large volume of content previously available here for GCA2/3, it's been pushed one level down, to here.

Things may be a bit mismatched and disjointed here for a while, as updating the various parts of the site to match in style and construction is being done in my limited free time.

The material presented here is my original creation, intended for use with GURPS Character Assistant from Steve Jackson Games. This material is not official and is not endorsed by Steve Jackson Games. However, since I wrote GURPS Character Assistant, and continue to maintain and improve it, I think that this material is pretty solid. In the case of items that are marked as being a part of the GCA package, the versions here are updated from the versions included with GCA, and will likely appear in some form with an update of GCA in the future.
