Virtual Tabletop Network Testing

Filed under: Virtual Tabletop — Tags: , , — wizard @ 10:07 am

Virtual Tabletop is now ready for some internal network testing, all of the commands are coded and everything should be in place. This opens up further development to focus on the GUI aspect of VT. We’re still in alpha (a few more builds before we go beta), but things should speed up as most of the core functionality is complete.

FlexMap Download

Filed under: Campaigner, FlexMap — wizard @ 1:23 pm

FlexMap is now also available in a separate download (from Campaigner). While Campaigner is currently the only released utility using FlexMap, others are in the works and FlexMap is our standard mapping format.

FlexMap is free to use and will automatically save a bitmap image of your map when you save it (so you can use it in other programs or print it out). Virtual Tabletop will also use FlexMap to make the gaming tables as well as ChitBoard (in development).

1.0.4.4 Campaigner Build Today

Filed under: Campaigner — micah @ 1:00 pm

A few bugs we’ve found are being addressed and a new build will be issued today. This build fixes a couple problems with the combat resolution and asset assignment screen. Sometimes, a player wouldn’t be able to assign rules and reinforcements to a battle, when opening a saved game. This has been fixed. Also the battle html file has been updated to be a bit more portable. Now, you can zip up the html file with the img folder and anyone can open it.

The next build will focus on:

Zooming

Consume Resource ’option’

Disallow “stacking” of Battlegroups (they will stop before getting too close to another friendly)

Well, after a nice long break, its back to work! Networking is coming along nicely, and very soon we’ll be able to run a full networking test for Virtual Tabletope.

We’re compiling a list for upcoming changes to Campaigner, and we’ll be making a new build in the not to distant future.
