[QUOTE="Aberzanzorax, post: 5582545, member: 64209"] I read on your site that battlegrounds can be used remotely with a group. I've been looking for a VTT that will work for my group... We've used maptools in the past, but have consistently had connection issues, including being able to connect at all, port forwarding issues, and icons showing up as question marks. But I'm not here to complain about other programs (just to let you know the problems I've had for the relevant questions in this post). We LOVED the program when it workedm though. I've researched a number of VTTs and haven't found another one that did everything it did for our needs (mainly map creation and fog of war as well as a "vision layer" that could be dependent upon characters). It seems like your program does do this!!! I'm pretty excited to find out more, and was wondering what you can tell me about how nationwide connections work for your program (even pointing me to the relevant part of your website), what "technical support" might be like (even if that's forum based cooperative support), and what kind of files are shared via the program (sound? chat channels? etc). I'll look into these questions myself of course, but I wanted to say that it looks like you have a pretty awesome VTT going on there, one that could potentially save my group's game (or resurrect it, more accurately). Thanks for your time. [/QUOTE]
