Video Confrencing Software

[Kralin Thornberry]

Hey,

I'm going to try and convince my group (who are in Florida) to play online via video confrencing (as I live in Kentucky). Does anyone have any suggestions for any good video confrencing software, and one that won't cost an arm and a leg?

TIA,

Eric

Try Skype. It's free and cross-platform.

But rather than video conferencing, have you considered using virtual tabletop software combined with voice chat software? If not, here are your options.

If you're not sure what virtual tabletop software is, read this page. It should clear things up.

Yeah, that might work, but I'd rather to able to talk to them and socialize.

Sounds interesting. How do you plan to use maps or die rolls? The software mentioned earlier does both of these well, but I am not sure about the VOIP/Video conferencing functions.
