Planescape - Dead God Rising ~OOC

[Dire Lemming]

Oh ok, thanks for clearing that up.

Dire Lemming its your action, if you wouldnt mind posting... thanks. and Noch goes after (beginning round 2)

I'm working on it, Kyran isn't exactly a combat powerhouse, he mostly tries to avoid violence. Look, I'm sorry if I'm annoying but I'm just a bit confused right now.

I just realized that A'koss had to have looked in the sblock saying that Kyran had spotted the snipers in order to have Tyrjon look for them in the first place. So it all evens out in the end.

In my game, I also encourage my players to state their preferred actions in any situation they can think of in case they are unable to post in a timely fashion. That way I don't do something silly when I am trying to make the round move along by assuming their actions... like make the mage engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Ironically, when I did implement this the player of the mage stated that his preferred action was to cast shield and engage in melee with his quarterstaff. With a strength of 16, he actually has the second highest kill total in game.

I was also wondering, if there are any planes you'd like to go to or certain creatures you'd like to meet. Perhaps i can incorporte them into the adventure at some point.

ive been messing around with the nwn toolset and come up with some decent maps and creaturs to represent round by round encounters.

now could anyone please explain to me if it is possible for a mere mortal as myself to transplant such a map to photoshop (if indeed such a thig is possibe) without me killing myself in frustration?

 

[A'koss]

Awesome!!

Okay Nalfeshnee, it's very easy. This is what you do...

Stay in the NWN toolset, bring your map into an overhead view and hit F11 to get a full screen view. Uncheck all the little elements you don't want showing up on your map (like starting point, the little green arrows pointing towards doors), then just take a screengrab at the magnification you want.

Then simply go into photoshop and paste it into your template.

I like to be surprised myself...

But as far as planes go, Mechanus, Acheron, the Gate Towns of the Outlands, the City of Brass, Dis, Ysgard, the Astral and the Plane of Infinite Portals are always good fun.

You will have to set up a grid in photoshop on a separate layer. It's also better that way so that you can control the grid's opacity (I usually like to have mine semi-transparent so it's not too stark on the image).
