thanks for the heads up
is there a reason no ones been posting though? nothings really happened for a couple days
Well, Nic has been finishing with the last spawn, waiting for Blu's return, so there's that.
I kinda suspected I was about to get pounced on and beaten the crap out of, so I was waiting with baited breath. However, I'm back alive and happy to be so.
BTW, I'll be on vacation in Normandy 8-24 August and I'm not sure what the wifi situation will be like.
Alright guys its about time for me to evaluate this game. There appears to be a couple people trying to move it along while others seem to have put it on the back burner or dropped it completely.
Not here, i'm still willing.
I see what you mean. This is my first experience with play-by-forum and it's enjoyable when it works but there's a lot of dead time. However, like Natalia's player, I like the group.
Still there and active while i can
Yey, power is back!
I'm here too.
Sorry about jumping forward guys, I know Vire talked about moving up, but I know real life can muck up our best intentions. Thought I would kick it a little just to keep it going, hate to loose the game for everyone waiting for the next guy.
so you should kick Vire's bottom to speed up things, Nic.
Anyone here using Ditzie? I'm mastering a game on the forums for the first time and have trouble using it...
There is the main help page. Despite that it took me a few attempts to work with it.
Yeah Vire hasn't posted in like a week
@Vanea its super easy. If you didn't live over seas I'd call you and explain it in like 3 minutes. I can try to explain through text if the help page Natalia posted doesn't quite cut it
@Natalia&Jimi: I read that page... still can't understand how it works. :-(
I live over seas- well I guess so, being French- dépends which sea.
Here's my problem in a few lines: I loaded a map and some tokens in my album. When I open a new window anddrag&drop the map, the map displays like this:
If I try to put the token of an orc (from my album) near the log on the map, only the pic of the orc appears, and not the forest map. Do you know why? (Of course, you can aswer by PM if you prefer)
1) Wow, where'd you get to make that map?
2) Not sure, i put all the stuff i wanted for an encounter in an album.
You can also access any folder in the gallery as an image set via its numeric “g2_itemId.”
When viewing a folder in the gallery, notice that the URL in your browser looks something like this:
http://beta.ditzie.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=267
If you go to http://beta.ditzie.com/267 you will view that folder’s contents as the default image set.
That should view in a window the content of your folder, then to be used.
I hadn't problems with them though after that. Sure, i had to set my combatmap as "background", but all other tokens appeared above it.Hope it helps
Guys, you could use Skype to talk for free. :-)
Whoa I go to sleep last night with like no posts and wake up to 20+

ah good idea blue. do you have skype Vanea?
I know i got Skype installed on my comp at home, but I never utilised it...
i can get on skype with you tomorrow if you like. what time your time is best for you?
I'm at work tomorrow... remember that i'm french so probably not in the same time zone anyway.
i'll check on my Skype account first, and we'll see what can be done after. Thank you for trying to help.
For example, Jimmy, how do you get the token icons over the map? how do you partially blacken the map?
I enjoy our group's dynamics.^^
oooh, near max damage, Vire. Quite a hit!
Nice Vire.
You guys are gonna make me blush.

@Vanea starting from scratch here may be the best idea:)
Step 1- put images in folder. open the folder by deleting everything from the g to the = in the address bar (including the g and the =)
Step 2- drag an item down from the top of the screen. double click it and click "fullsize"
Step 3- customize size further by placing mouse in bottom right hand corner and holding shift + right click, then direct with the mouse while holding both buttons
Step 4- double click pic again and choose "make background" Note* make sure it's sized and placed appropriately first. this step will make it non-editable
Step 5- drag item down to use as player token. do NOT make full size. instead, size appropriate for grid. double click and click "make non-resizable"
see if this works. if you dont have any problems we can move on to blacking out the screen, which is nothing once you can do this
@Vire that raises a good question. your damage is 2d6+7, whats the +7 from?
Damage is 2d6+10
3 from 2h power attack
7 from wisdom, 5 + 1/2 from 2 handed since my wisdom counts as strength as per focused offense.
-Posted with Wayfinder
oh ok i see, focused offense yes, very nice
next question, how are you getting a +9 to attack? im only coming up with a +8. im sure i just missing something, wondering what it is
Mindblade being masterwork is my guess.
2 BAB
5 Wis
1 Weapon Focus
1 Masterwork Weapon
-Posted with Wayfinder
You can get a masterwork mind blade?
All mind blades are treated as being masterwork.
-Posted with Wayfinder
I think it's because they're so light...
Speaking of light, they don't provide any lighting by any chance?
Keeping a blade as a torch and such...
Light in their loafers, perhaps
*cast Light on Vire's blade*
Lightsaber anyone?
That would likely only works when he pops it up though.
While we're at it, i've been reading through 3rdpp material and there's this mechanist (gearhead) class that can make weapons which are powered by arcane infused cores. So you could, when activated: have an axe, rapier, saber, ranged weapon. All that's needed then is a kinetic throw and maybe chain lightning from the fingers for UNLIMITED POWER!!!!!
@Natalia what's the class called? That sounds pretty cool
Machine smith
Here
awesome. i been wanting to check out pure steam since it came out but haven't had the extra money. yur right that does look pretty cool
The Mechanus part is what looks cool, either energy weapons or perhaps a mechanical beast/steamtank-ram. The analyzer sounds like a tricorder from Star Trek.
I've noticed that no one other than me and Nic has updated the map for quite a while, and I remember someone saying they were having problems with it. Who's all unable to update?
My apologies. I didn't actually think to move my token until a combat scenario. I'll make sure I move it next time.
I tried to update the map but can't move my token.
I'm usually on mobile during workdays. Ditzie is blocked on my office PC, when I can manage to sneak a peak, so I try to update the map when I get home instead (~7pm GMT+8).
@Vanea this is a new map, hopefully it fixes the problem for ya:)
@Vanea check your mailbox for results of your knowledge check
Done.
Well....i sleep and it's 11gp/2disc/14recr :)
