Once you have Open RPG installed and running (the Client no console shortcut), follow these instructions to make your character sheet:

1) In the Game Tree section at the top left corner, expand OpenRPG 1.6.1 (click on the little plus next to it).
2) Expand Templates.
3) Expand Tools.
4) Look for 3rd Edition Character Tool. Double click on it, or right click and select Use. It will add a new item at the top of Game Tree entiled 3rd Edition Character Tool.
5) Right click on this new item and select Design, Or double click on it.
6) Now you can fill out the sheet.

I have set up a server for us to use. It might not be up all the time of course. To join:

1) Run Open RPG Client no console (or start.py in the install folder).
2) Click on the Open RPG menu (all the way on the left).
3) Click on the Chat tab.
4) Click on where it says "No Name", in the first line of data fields. Enter the name you wish to display on the chat rooms. Click ok.
5) Now you have to exit Open RPG and reopen it to get the settings changes to take effect.
Note: You only need to change your name the first time you load up Open RPG.
6) After reloading Open RPG, click on the Game Server menu and select Browse Servers.
7) Locate the server Alkazhar in the list. If it is not there, the server is down. After selecting it, click on Connect.
8) Now, select an option from the Game section on the right. You probably want to just select the Lobby at first. Click on Join Room.
9) Now, Click on Close Window on the bottom left side of this screen.
