This is the read me file for the AD&D 3E Treasure Tables compiled for Tablesmith.

I.  Standard Disclaimer
1. You use the tables at your own risk. This should go without saying. And, given their limited scope there shouldn't BE any risk. However, I'll not take responsibility for any unexpected outcomes due to someone's using these tables.

2. These tables taken verbatim from the Wizard's of the Coast AD&D 3E Dungeon Master's Guide. The conversion of these tables here is in no way an attempt to infringe on that copyright. These tables are neither published nor endorsed by Wizard's of the Coast, Inc who own the intellectual copyright to the original material. No charge or fee is requested or expected for these tables. And since you'll need to have access to (in other words, "own") the AD&D 3E Dungeon Master's Guide in order to make any practical use of these tables, these are meant only as a convenience to owners of that original source. Dungeons and Dragons and D&D are trademarks of Wizards of the Coast, Inc.


II.  Adding the 3E Treasure Tables to your Catalog file.
Copy the lines between the asterisk lines (but NOT including the asterisks) into your catalog file. As always, make a backup copy of your original file before you make any changes. To add these tables to your category file, do the following:

1. Copy the lines below,
2. Open Tablesmith,
3. Click on the icon that looks like a pile of books,
4. Paste the lines (minus the asterisks)into catagory file that opens under an appropriate category, and
5. Close and save the category file.

III.  Adding the .tab files to your Tables folder.
In order for these tables to work, you'll need to copy/extract all the files ending with a .tab extension into the Tables folder under the Tablesmith directory.


IV.  Tablesmith
1. Tablesmith is a shareware program generously developed and provided by Bruce Gulke. Notice I said shareware and NOT freeware. If you use his program  for more than a week or two for evaluation, please send him the very reasonable $5.00 he's requested for the program's registration. He's certainly earned it by providing such a valuable tool. Bruce can be reached at by sending email to akira@mythosa.net


2. You can obtain the Tablesmith program from htt://www.mythosa.net. Once there, click on the RPG Utilities link and look for the most recent edition of Tablesmith.


V.   Notes on the tables.
I'd appreciate feedback - particularly about blatant errors in these tables - but PLEASE don't contact me requesting advice on creating tables for Tablesmith. If you start needing that level of help, register the program with Bruce Gulke (see above) and contact him. I can be reached for general questions as at awmarker@rcn.com or visit our website http://www.breminor.com/default.htm.


VI. Remember, the copyright to the content belongs to Wizards of the coast, Inc. (http://www.wizards.com), and the program these tables run on belongs to Bruce Gulke. Please do not do anything with these tables that would infringe on the copyrights of these owners. By all means, buy the AD&D 3E Dungeon Master's Guide (a real bargain at less than $20 at the time of this writing) and register Tablesmith with Bruce.
