    Projector suggestions?

    Thank you for checking, your reply makes me happy. Now I can (hopefully) project a battlemap onto my Chessex Map and use the mat's squares! :)

    Projector suggestions?

    I have a projector on the way and was wondering how well my beige vinyl Chessex MegaMat will work as a "screen" t project the image onto. Maybe someone here has tried this?

    Projector suggestions?

    Thanks. I've been following your post on your blog. Going over them again today brings up a question on something you posted on your blog on Aug 12, 2020. you said your bowling bud helped you adjust the height and lens to get a crisper image. You then said " A higher resolution projector...

    Projector suggestions?

    Good stuff Steel_Wind, especially on pixel resolution. I considered TVs as a solution but leaned towards a projector for these reasons, mostly in order of importance: I really don't want to lose my existing table and room layout. The only practical option I would have is to create a TV frame...

    This stat page shows your projector can produce a max of a 18" x 25" image when the throw distance is 4'. If that's correct, it's quite a bit smaller than we were hoping to get. Can you confirm these numbers? I'm considering this InFocus IN146 projector: Short-throw Brightness: 2700 ANSI...

    Projector suggestions?

    Sorry for the spam, but I'm learning a lot and believe it will help others. I found out how projectors can account for not being mounted in what's known as the "vertical center" position. Definitions, and great links with pics to better describe and show these: Lens shift: Lens shift allows...

    Projector suggestions?

    As I do more research, another question comes up. When specs refer to "lens shift and zoom controls", do these mean the projected image can be moved (up/down & left/right) and scaled? One projector I was looking at (Optoma GameTime GT720) does NOT have lens shift and zoom controls. If these do...

    I would also like to know this. I see a LOT of projected gaming tables pics that were taken in darkened or dark rooms. I would like to play without turning out or even dimming the lights. My game room isn't super bright, but the room (20x25') is fully lit.

    Projector suggestions?

    Thanks for the info. I looked up your projector and I'm pretty sure it's has a widescreen 16:10 aspect ratio. Can you tell me: Is this is the case? What distance is the end of the projector to your "screen"? What is the max dimensions it throws for you? Thanks!!

    Projector suggestions?

    I could use suggestions and tips on purchasing a projector to cast RP maps onto my gaming table. I read all of the applicable threads on here but, with tech changes as they are, I was wondering if anyone can suggest a (modern) projector that fits my needs: No more than $750 Distance from the...

    New DM screen vs DM Kit version

    I compared the new DM screen to the one that came with the DM Kit and found these differences: DCS TO BREAK OR BURST COMMON ITEMS: NEW: Removed the "Target Level" column Standard Actions: OLD: Coup de grace: Make a critical hit against a helpless enemy NEW: Coup de grace: Score a critical hit...

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    Love this tool, thanks! Bugs found when using 1.0.05 for Windows: Many many times the Ongoing damage condition was not applying damaged at the start of a creatures/player turn. Ongoing 5 was the only one we used during last session, if it matter. Removing a condition by clicking the red 'X'...

    Computers, Projectors, and Battle Maps.

    Wow, that UTK tool looks awesome. I saw one of the devs reply to one of their Youtube video about 2 weeks, saying they were still working on it! Yeah! Anyone have any more info on it?

    Computers, Projectors, and Battle Maps.

    I'm considering going the digital tabletop route, leaning towards a overhead projector, mostly so we can write on the projected area and use minis without much worry, and also so we don't have to worry about spills and food mess (common problem with my group). I read on some other forum about...

    Any chance you can list the differences between this new one and the one that came with the Essentials DM Kit?

    Love the program. Literally just looked for a update as you were uploading the new version. :) General non-app issues: - The "Release Notes" link on your News page is dead. It goes to this: "http://4eturntracker.com/Character%20Builder" - Your contact link you posted in the previous post is...
