Interesting. I've always wondered about Maptool. I wrote the Rulesets for WFRP2 on Fantasy Grounds 1 and 2. Some of the forum members that are here now actually helped with the db population. The rulesets have seen heavy use. Lots of fans. Now that v3 is out, Fantasy Grounds can no longer support the system. The dice for that program are seriously embedded (to prevent cheating I suppose) and can't be changed without some serious code restructuring. There is a request by the new owner to open negotiations with FFG for a ruleset for v3, but if they're talking, they are keeping it under wraps. I'm assuming the new FGII owner will adjust the dice code if a deal is struck, but I'm not holding out hope.
How does Maptool handle the dice? It may be time to switch v-tables. I have a lot of friends and family that no longer live close that would love to play.
Well sir, my knowledge is quite limited but maptool is highly custimizable emirikol made the dice for wfrp for maptool. Im assuming that means that it is specialized for wfrp, maptool itself comes with a default dice tool which works just by typing /roll d10 for instance and i believe the starting dice goes from 2 to percentile sided dice. However as stated by my second post and on emirikols post on the maptool forums 3rd edition has not been transfered to maptool yet however I really want to play the second edition. However I am so new to be honest I am afraid to go to any public gatherings around me .
