This is where all the options available in PCGen are contained. PCGen by default will operate by the core rules - but these options allow you to modify those to simulate common house rules. If the Star Wars Mode box is checked, PCGen will hide the Alignment choices in the Stats tab (see Stats tab description below) as well as the Base Stat and Spell Type columns in the Class table (see Classes tab description below) disappear. The Defense and Reputation columns in the Classes tab will appear, as well as the Defense, Reputation and Wound Points fields in the same tab. Normally characters cannot advance beyond a cumulative level 20, and some classes have built-in maximum levels. By checking the Ignore Level Cap box you can ignore these caps. PCGen will by default use the 4d6-drop-the-lowest stat rolling method, but if you check the Use Purchase Method box PCGen will use the purchase method and record the cost of your character. Before reaching level one no character can have a stat below 3 or above 18. Changing the Stat Min and Stat Max entries can modify this default. Characters cannot purchase normally exclusive skills unless they're of the appropriate class. In PCGen that means an exclusive and unavailable skill has a cost of 0 (cannot be purchased). Some DMs like to allow these skills to be purchased anyway at a higher rate (typically 4), this value can be entered in the Exclusive Skill Cost field. Characters have to pay for any equipment they purchase (see the Items tab description) and even though in the Items tab you can easily give your character more gold to purchase equipment, you can simply ignore the cost of equipment by checking the Ignore Equipment Cost box. PCGen will by default not allow you to go into the negatives with your stat pool (see the Stat tab description). You can ignore this limit by checking the Unlimited Stat Pool tab. Characters will only have Skills added to them as they purchase ranks in those skills - that means that a character sheet will only list skills the character has purchased. Many users would like to have all skills or even just the skills that can be used without training to show up. In the Include Skills list box you can select None to use PCGen's default behaviour, or select Untrained to have all Untrained skills to your characters, and All to add all skills to your character. Grim and Gritty rules will be implemented.
