    My digital gaming table setup... maps and music...

    Separate monitor... What do you mean separate monitor? At the moment I have an extended desktop... so I can have stuff in front of me on the laptop and stuff on the table, which mouse can go between... Is that what you mean... I love it if there was an even better way?!!?

    My digital gaming table setup... maps and music...

    Masking the issues... You can see... on the video... that I've been doing 'fog of war' by turning whole rooms on and off... and sometimes I do it by erasing the Mask... I have the whole level at the bottom... with a black mask on the layer above that... so I can erase bits of that to reveal...

    Using Music to enhance the Mood

    ...mmmmmm.... OMG! That is beyond planet earth! ROFL! I've got one player who always seems to be trying to pick up the NPCs... maybe he can use this music, whenever he comes into the room! :) Benjamin ************************************** Want incredibly atmospheric background...

    My digital gaming table setup... maps and music...

    GIMP is free Photoshop Yer... GIMP is a GNU Photoshop... FREE to use... pretty much all the same features... I've actually never tried a mapping program. I use Dunjinni to make my own maps... and I've looked at a few of the map game play programs, but since I generally get to play with live...

    My digital gaming table setup... maps and music...

    Hey all! :) A few people wanted to see how I set up my digital gaming table (maps and music and stuff)... I've made a video and chucked it up on facebook. It's on a public page so you don't need to be logged-in or even a member to see it. http://www.facebook.com/Syrinscape It's the video...

    Syrinscape back from the dead... and better than ever...

    Syrinscape does sounds and music! Hey Olaf, I'm in Forestville, NSW. Syrinscape can certainly work in either of those two ways. There are SoundSets including Medieval Town, Forests during the Day and Night, Flooded Caverns with lots of drips, Thunderstorms, a generic battle set with lots of...

    Background Sounds (Music)

    Quicklead is nice! Hey Quickleaf, It's so nice to have seen you around the place recommending Syrinscape. It's really encouraged me to take it to the next level. The new version is going to be awesome... still really easy to use... and most importantly HANDS OFF to run while DMing or...

    Syrinscape back from the dead... and better than ever...

    Thanks Quickleaf! ...am working away at the new version feverishly! Trying to balance actually getting it out... and making it totally awesome. The more features you add, the more potential bugs you create, the more lead time you need... :-) Ben

    Redidual damage - the shadows left after magical healing

    Hi all, We tried it last night. Thanks for all your input so far. Didn't seem complicated to apply rd at all. Just every time someone got healed, they added a little bit to their rd. They said "OK I drink a healing potion and heal (rolls) 8 hit points." I say "Cool, add (8 div 4) 2 to your...

    Redidual damage - the shadows left after magical healing

    Yes. Good idea. Maybe only travel half overland travel amount... That has a nice feel to it. "No struggling-up-Mount-Doom-carrying-your-friend for you today!" :o

    Redidual damage - the shadows left after magical healing

    Thinking of halving the speed the rd accrues... so you only pick up one quarter of the amount healed by magic... Thinking of letting you get rid of a quater of residual damage with any undisturbed sleep, even on the road. Thinking of letting you get rid of Half residual damage with a days bed...

    Redidual damage - the shadows left after magical healing

    ...or a way of modifying the existing idea to mitigate the problems you see it creating? I don't think it need shorten the adventuring day... if the amount of residual damage you accrue in any given battle is not too much. The example shows that you need to take quite a LOT of damage before you...

    Redidual damage - the shadows left after magical healing

    All valid points Mad Hamish... can you think of any alternatives to create the same sort of feel? My players aren't into crafting so putting day or week long breaks is not a problem...

    Redidual damage - the shadows left after magical healing

    Here is my alpha for a Residual Damage rule. This is part of my effort to get more time to pass in my campaign. Also, it has always seemed strange to me that players can take massive life threatening wounds and keep coming back for more day after day with no need for a break. This rules...
