Major update: Changed all the classic ranged touch spells (Aero, Blizzard, Dark, Fire, Light, Stone, Thunder, Water) to non-ranged touch. This wasn't a light decision. Also, removed the number of affected allies limitation on all area effect healing spells. Protectra, Shellra, and Renew got a 3rd level version as well as changing the morale bonus to resistance bonus for Bar-status, Bar-element, and Shell spells. Esuna changed to a 1st level spell and majorly changed as well as Esunaga as a 3rd level spell. Minor errors corrected on a few classes.

I'm really not sure I like the changes to the basic spells. I mean, in all the games they were attacks. They could miss, they could crit ect... As well, with them all being Fort Saves then most monsters are taking half damage since most things tend to have a good Fort.
If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh.

I don't honestly remember them missing. Resisting, yes, but missing, not quite sure.
All in all, all I have done is removed the possibility of critting and up the minimum damage since everything will now take damage regardless of making the save or not.
In layman's terms:
Spells before: Able to crit, able to miss.
Spells after: Not avoidable, always damage.

Nah, the only spells affected were the classic FF spells.

Minor update: Made a few changes to the Monk class, added a couple of new abilities. Edit/Cleaned up the Monk Archetypes due to the change. Since the new Esuna change, I removed all the spells that are no longer required (Stona, Vox, Poisona, Cleanse, etc). Removed Toxify, changed Poison/Bio a little bit. Added two new Necromancer spells (Zombify, Mass Zombify), and added new blue mage spells that were created in my FFd20 campaign. Thanks to Cycopaethic (forum user) who sends me walls of text on suggestions to fix errors or make suggestions, he has been invaluable.

Minor Update Edit: The night is young! Also made changes to the Gunner class, filling out a few problem areas that seem empty as well as removing gunblades from the class and dropping the lightning shot ability (as rapid shot feat mimics it). Made a few changes to the firearms as well.

Major update: Finished the Medic base class. Removed some redundancy deeds from the Gunner class. Added/changed some archetypes (created by Nihilarian). Changed the Esuna spell to require to spend more MP to cure higher level status effects. Changed pricing on Power Rods/Staves and added a damage component equal to the caster's casting modifier. Changed Green Mage's first ability to increase duration of the appropriate type rather than +1 round. Made a few fixes on typos and suggestions on different wording (with help from Cycopaethic), though I'm not done with it.

Uhhh.
I'm on the Chemist page, it has a bunch of symbols instead of letters. Tried to copy paste to show you, but it went back to regular letters. I dunno what's going on.

I think everything is fixed now. Dunno what the hell happened. I uploaded everything instead of just the files that are updated.

Quick Question: how often are the main PDFs updated? I check the main site every so often, but they always say that they're not updated.

Not often enough. I'm still ironing out bugs and updating. Never feels finish for me to update the Main PDF.
But the normal PDFs (classes, races, etc) are regularly updated.

I generally check the site once a month for updates, but currently I am on holidays with minimal internet access, so haven't been able to check. Apart from the Main Book and Monster Compendium, are the rest of PDFs current? May I compile them into private, dated documents to share to my own gaming group? If not, I will link them to site to get their copies.
