Any progress on a character creator for Mechwarrior 3rd edition?

Do you mean a point-based system as opposed to the Lifepath system?
Yeah, they describe one in considerable detail in CBT:RPG Companion.
Check it out here.
It also has a quick NPC system, and a point-based Lifepath creation system, plus almost all existing Lifepaths.
It also contains the Battle Armor construction rules, and some nice support including highly detailed descriptions of Mech and BA technology.
Big sucker, worth the buy in my opinion.

No, I meant a PC Program that worked with the full life path approach

I started on one. It's taken a back seat for the moment. Was going to be fully customizable with the ability to add your own lifepaths, skills, etc... I know Rick over at heavymetalpro.com is working on one, or at least it's in his queue.

Don't give up on it, I've been waiting for one for quite some time. Damn my lack of computer programming expertise.

Well, I haven't given up on it, just put it on the back burner. I'm positive Rick will be doing one. If it's anywhere near as good as HMP, then you'll be happy with it.

If memory serves, Rick is in beta testing stage of it.

Rick hasn't really even started it. He's taking suggestions from people but that's about it. His Battle Armor prog is currently in the Beta phase right now. Then he'll probably start on the revisions for HM Pro.
