[QUOTE="Celia_Gyweth, post: 1940216, member: 23896"] [b]Alright, here is the Skinny-DM's and Users, please read.[/b] In some of my recent posts, I've mentioned a .pdf. Some of you might recall the .pdf of the Forgotten Forest maps that I uploaded months ago. If I personally have trouble with something not related to actually melee encounters, and I keep having trouble with it, I document it mentally, and finally in a text file. Since we are all new (more or less) to Chainmail, there is a host of things that could be stated, up front, to help new / existing players. Keep in mind that newbies who have never played a public mod can be really ignorant. Such as: Level Gain NPC's: None Modes of travel: Ship, Recall Portal, Recall Portal Binding, On Foot, Party Leader Recall, Other Hireable NPC's: Soldiers, Henchman, Non-Human NPC's, Other? Base Items: Town Merchents, Wandering Merchents, Drops, Other Who sells what: Example, for those that want put Continual Flame on an item of clothing..Which merchent sells that crystal? Crafting System: Armor, Weapons, Other? (There appears to be some sort of other crafting systems in place, but I don't yet know what they are) Maps: Not detailed one's per se, but something that shows how to get to places that are not accessible directly by the Recall Portals. That's just part of what I was going to put into a .pdf, and upload it here. Then, if somebody is really annoyed, they can download it at their leisure. Users will be able to click a "bookmark" in the .pdf, so if they have just one thing they want to look up, they don't see any other information in the .pdf. Also, behind the scenes, I'm going to be modifying Seviss Isles for an upcoming campaign some RL friends are going to run. I've spent the last month figuring out how to "do" that, and can now offer my services in matters of coding, should there be a need. And, in regards to the news that Kadamait is dropping Chainmail Development. Sad news, but not really surprising. But worry not! After looking long and hard at Seviss Isles, I have to say that it, and Chainmail, are really the best third-party, PW's there is. And other people will continue to work on them, because they also know that. So worry not :) [/QUOTE]
