[QUOTE="cyderak, post: 5501060, member: 16003"] Greetings true believers, (gotta love Stan the man) Picture it sitting in front of you and your gaming group. The ultimate computerized RPG game table using your ideal gaming software that would both speed up your games prep work and look phenominal doing it. Now think of the features that would make all that possible. I won't list all my ideas right away so as to give others a chance to put in their two cents worth. Heres mine: 1.) Animated monster and NPC graphics that move where designated. 2.) A dynamic spell casting system that would place a spell template according to pertinent info about your characters stats that would effect size, duration, and range.........and then play the appropriate spell animation like a fireball or lightning bolt. 3.) It would work with virtual animated or non-animated NPC and monster tokens. It would also work with actual miniatures. 4.) it would have a interactive Initiative tracker that the players could easily see and know who's initiative it is. 5.) It would have a Map support program where initially the software would come with the basics like campsite, a generic city map, and other generic maps that are needed for gaming. All of which are beautifully rendered in HD to emerse the players. And then later have more maps available in map-pack formats for a nominal fee. 6.) I-Pad compatible character sheets. And if you don't have an I-pad, basic character sheets with info so certain aspects of the game can be effective such as spells, abilities, and familiar or animal companions. 7.) A very aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-use control panel. Who knows, maybe some game company or someone with the right skill-set could develope this type of product if they see feedback from the gaming community as to what we all want to see in a computerized RPG gaming table software. And who knows how many people would be inspired to build a computerized RPG gaming table if there was a software that would compliment their design. Post your feature ideas. B-) [/QUOTE]
