How do I ????? in Unity

[Laerun]

Thanks Laerun, I actually heard about the app from your video, but didn't know if there were any "official" instructions.
tyhanks again

Okay, no problem..I did include the links in the video description, if it's the same video?

Hi everyone,

my group is playing with a ruleset, which isn't maintained anymore. Not a problem so far, but since the 4.5 update it threw mistakes. We managed to identify the problem with the new CoreRPG. We simply replaced it with an older version (from September, still had an old Laptop around with the old file), and now it works again.

Since we're surely not the only people having this issue, is it possible to set up a database with the old files, so we can reference them? Or can you, alternatively, tell me, if there is a copyright-infringement, if I'd share the old CoreRPG publically?

We'd prefer that you just kept it for private use. The whole point of improving on the CoreRPG and other rulesets is to allow us to add features, without having to maintain multiple older versions.

I understand. I'm not trying to get you to maintain multiple versions.

I'm just trying to freeze a certain status, so that rulesets can still work, even after an update.

Third option would be to rename the Core and call the renamed version in the specific ruleset. So it doesn't interfere with the updater. Would that be ok? I would still like to enable others to the same solution, meaning sharing the old Core.

[Moon Wizard]

Hmm. I guess I don't mind it being done informally, but you'll have to rename the older version (CoreRPG_2023 for file name and Core RPG (2023) for display name) to not conflict with newer version and to provide a clear difference for our development and support team so we don't spend time on it at all. I would prefer just to have it stored as a file, rather than submitted to repository (which implies changeability).

Is there a way to "pre-define" the style frame used in the reference manuals. I use the same style frame nearly 98% of the time on any particular project so if I can set it once and done, it would be pretty helpful. I'm sure it would need to be in code, I just don't know where to start looking for the correct parameter.
Thanks in advance for any replies

It would need an extension certainly. The Frames are defined in CoreRPG.

Thanks Zacchaeus,
I don't know whether I did it correctly, but this is what I did in the graphics_frames.XML of the theme to make it work:
<framedef name="referenceblock-page">
<!--<bitmap file="graphics/frames/refblock_page.png" />-->
<bitmap file="graphics/frames/refblock_text5.png" /> <-------this was my change
<topleft rect="0,0,25,50" />
<top rect="25,0,250,50" />
<topright rect="275,0,50,50" />
<left rect="0,50,25,50" />
<middle rect="25,50,250,50" />
<right rect="275,50,50,50" />
<bottomleft rect="0,100,25,50" />
<bottom rect="25,100,250,50" />
<bottomright rect="275,100,50,50" />
</framedef>

Thanks again

I already know how to create a instance for a TV being used as a monitor. Just create a second instance and slide it over to the TV. Then I Load the campaign being run on my computer and use Join for the one on the TV.

Question 1: How can I create a third instance and move it over to a second computer.

Some background for this question. I am involved in a game where all the players are sitting around a table. The player on the second computer is the DM and I am the co-DM, thus the need for a TV for a second monitor. But one of the players is using a computer, thus the need for a 3rd instance.

Question 2: If the above question is yes,how can I give control of FG to a DM that does not have FG installed.

Some more background I'm the co-DM and therefore the need for him to control the NPC placement and movement and I do all the rest as a co=DM. Or is there a workaround fir this (see question 1).

[Zacchaeus]

You can only run two instances on the one computer and you can't 'project' an instance to another computer. To have a third instance you would need a second computer and have FG installed on that and run it as a normal player instance and joined to the host.

There isn't a way to have someone other than the host to be the GM. There's an extension which I believe allows one player to control NPCs but I have no more details other than that about it. It may be called Combat Groups or something similar to that.
